I have same error. What's the solution. I have Tplink Archer C64 AC1200 router. Please help.

@moshriq @theshop35 So the when I used HACS with the GitHub link, it didn't work because it didn't clone the latest version on main. It used the most recent tagged released from September, which didn't have the version in the manifest json file yet.

So I got it to work by cloning it instead, and then mv Home-Assistant-TP-Link-Router/custom_components/tplink_router/ tplink_router while at /config/custom_components to move just the custom components code. You can then do rm -r Home-Assistant-TP-Link-Router. Restart, It should then work.

Hopefully @menahishayan sees this and gets an updated version released. I think the code is all right, just not released.

I lied, I think there might be other things wrong too.

Am I missing something? Can't find integration in HACS at all?

You might want to try this different fork of tplink_router which mentions:

This fork has been updated to work with Home Assistant version 2022.7+
