Locked myself out of Kauf Plug 10
Closed this issue · 13 comments
It seems it's asking for a password, but I don't know it.
Is there a way to fix this?
Download bin file, compress into a gzip file, upload via web interface (enter plug IP address into web browser). Should work.
Can you try to upload bin file through curl command? curl -v -X POST -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" -F update=@firmware_filename.bin.gz "http://192.168.1.16/update"
Probably needs to be a linux shell. not sure how you would do this through powershell. You could use the windows subsystem for linux or do it from a pi probably.
What does your yaml look like? Did you do anything other than keep it at the default? How did you lose the OTA password?
Did you actually flash the plug in the first place or has it never been flashed by you? Might be a return that Amazon sold again instead of shipping back to me.
Another thing to try would be hold the button down for 30+ seconds to clear the wifi network. The plug should put it's wifi ap back up so you can connect directly to the plug. From there, you can try flashing the bin.gz file through the web interface (IP address 192.168.4.1) or using curl.
email me brian@kaufha.com and I'll send a replacement.
