Frequently Asked Questions
Do the TP-Link HS200 switches require a separate smart home hub?

Can I install the HS200 with a 3-way switch setup?

Does the HS200 work with dimmer-controlled lights?

Away Mode automatically turns your lights on and off at random intervals to simulate occupancy, which can help deter intruders when you're not home.
Does this switch require a neutral wire for installation?
