Wanted to post my frustrations. Some years ago these plugs used to work nicely. Now for two years they disconnect themselves every week until I remove them from power for a bit. This makes them USELESS. I don’t know what firmware version did this.

Their explanation is it’s my wifi doing this. However, they are the only devices having any problems. If it was my wifi, how come they need a hard reset and then work flawlessly for a week or so?

They also need the app, an internet connection and you have to make an account with Tapo to use them.

Stay away!

Going to move to zigbee plugs, considering Ikea Tretakt now.
