The `tplink` platform allows you to detect presence by looking at connected devices to a [TP-Link](https://www.tp-link.com) device. This includes the ArcherC9 line.
|
|
|
|
<p class='note'>
|
|
TP-Link devices typically only allow one login at a time to the admin console. This component will count towards your one allowed login. Depending on how aggressively you configure device_tracker you may not be able to access the admin console of your TP-Link device without first stopping Home Assistant. Home Assistant takes a few seconds to login, collect data, and log out. If you log into the admin console manually, remember to log out so that Home Assistant can log in again.

|
- platform: tplink
|
|
host: YOUR_ROUTER_IP
|
|
username: YOUR_ADMIN_USERNAME
|
|
password: YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **host** (*Required*): The IP address of your router, e.g. 192.168.1.1.
|
|
- **username** (*Required*: The username of an user with administrative privileges, usually *admin*.
|
|
- **password** (*Required*): The password for your given admin account.
|
|
|
|
For Archer C9 models running firmware version 150811 or later please use the encrypted password you can retrieve like this:
|
|
|
|
1. Go to the login page of your router. (default: 192.168.0.1)
|
|
2. Type in the password you use to login into the password field.
|
|
3. Click somewhere else on the page so that the password field is not selected anymore.
|
|
4. Open the JavaScript console of your browser (usually by pressing F12 and then clicking on "Console").
|
|
5. Type ```document.getElementById("login-password").value;```.
|
|
6. Copy the returned value to your Home Assistant configuration as password.
