Hey everyone, I wanted to share my recent experience with my TP-Link KP-115 smart plugs. I have seven of them installed throughout my house, controlling various devices. Today, I encountered a peculiar issue where attempting to turn off one plug via the iOS app caused all seven plugs to trip off, and the app became unresponsive. It was quite a surprise! After manually resetting each plug, I started researching possible causes and solutions.
I came across a helpful addon for OpenHAB called ‘Persistent Serial Port Identifier Provider,’ which claims to solve issues with USB/serial devices by creating a hash-based identifier. This addon seems promising for users facing similar problems with serial port reliability. It doesn’t require any OS-level configuration changes, which is a big plus for those looking for an out-of-the-box solution.
If anyone else has experienced similar issues or has additional insights, I’d love to hear about your experiences and any other solutions you might have found. Let’s keep the conversation going and help each other troubleshoot these smart home devices!
Cheers,
[Your Name]
