QUICK FIX: Home Assistant Auto-Login
====================================
PROBLEM: Long-lived access tokens don't work for web UI login.
SOLUTION: Use Trusted Networks instead.
YOUR COMPUTER IP: 192.168.68.193
STEP 1: Configure Trusted Networks in Home Assistant
-----------------------------------------------------
From another device (phone/computer), open Home Assistant:
Option A - Via UI (EASIEST):
1. Settings > People & Zones
2. Find "Trusted Networks" section
3. Click "Add" or "Configure"
4. Add IP: 192.168.68.193
5. Save
Option B - Via configuration.yaml:
Edit configuration.yaml and add:
homeassistant:
auth_providers:
- type: trusted_networks
trusted_networks:
- 192.168.68.193
Then restart Home Assistant.
STEP 2: Restart Dashboard
--------------------------
After configuring trusted networks, run:
~/scripts/restart-dashboard.sh
The dashboard should now auto-login without showing the login screen!
ALTERNATIVE: If Trusted Networks doesn't work
-----------------------------------------------
We can try using Firefox saved credentials, but that requires
manually logging in once (which you can't do without keyboard/mouse).
The trusted networks method is the best solution for headless kiosks.
