Router Model MX5600 Series Firmware version [up to date] 1.0.0.215906

On an MX5500, authentication is required - the code has a comment saying unauthenticated is allowed, but I guess newer routers have changed that - https://github.com/home-assistant/core/blob/dev/homeassistant/components/linksys_smart/device_tracker.py#L102

I've tested manually with curl, and adding X-JNAP-Authorization: Basic ************** resolves the issue (which is what the Linksys web interface does)

[krelst]

I see the exact same error as raised by @oerix in this comment . I have a Linksys MX2000 model, which I bought a year ago. so I'm assuming it's the same root cause as mentioned by @jimmyjones2 here.

@jimmyjones2 thanks for taking up the effort of starting a PR for fixing this issue. I see however that the PR has been closed in the meantime. Any chance of picking up the comments that were raised on the PR? I would want to say I would try to help out with fixing the issue, but given that I'm completely new to the Home Assistant project, there is little chance I would be of any value trying to help out...

[jimmyjones2]

@krelst Seems like there are a few similar PRs before mine that also got rejected - it's quite a lot of work to fully convert the plugin.

My workaround was to create a simple nginx proxy to add the necessary authentication header (helm syntax):

    server {
      listen       80 default_server;
      listen  [::]:80;
      server_name  _;

      location / {
        proxy_pass http://192.168.1.1/;
        proxy_set_header X-JNAP-Authorization "Basic {{ print "admin:" .Values.linksys_password | b64enc }}";
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
      }
    }

@jimmyjones2 thanks for the suggestion. By now I've been able to achieve the same result by using the Linksys Velop integration
