TP-Link Smart Home: Cameras constantly lose authentication. Reauthenticate sporadically #135596
Description
The problem
Using the TP-Link integration I have loaded four (4) C120 Cameras and one (1) C520WS Camera easily enough; however, on a daily basis I receive a notification that "Integration requires reconfiguration At least one of your integrations requires reconfiguration to continue functioning. [Check it out]" When I check the Settings page, I will have one or more of the cameras listed for repair that say "Authentication expired for C120" with being what I have named the camera based on its location in the house. I can load my Username and Password on the first camera I click on, but it will not allow me to update any others. When I click on them, I receive the message "Config flow could not be loaded: {"message":"Invalid flow specified"}." Looking at the integration documentation, I know the C120 camera is not listed as supported, but they have been working previously. Also, the C520WS is supported, and it is one of the cameras that is experiencing this issue.
