I'm testing with Model No. TL-WR841N / TL-WR841ND Router, and get except with

<----------to get router details---------->

**tp_client: <tplink_python.TPLinkClient object at 0x000001CE8B383FD0>**

Traceback (most recent call last):

all lists gets empty data login success(?): tp_client: <tplink_python.TPLinkClient object at 0x000001CE8B383FD0>

Hi @xLasttDev, that means the parsing is not returning any data. It seems the model is using different strategies to communicate which is very common to Tplink. I would encourage you to dive deep into it using tools like Postman interceptor or Chrome developer tool to check what payload TPLink frontend is sending to communicate with the backend. Hope this helps.

I'm testing it with TL-WDR5620 and I get the response below， what does the code mean?
