The Reset Sequence

Restore connection in minutes

03

Unplug and reset

Check signal strength

Re-pair device app

Disconnect the main power cable from your camera or hub. Wait exactly ten seconds to clear the system memory before reconnecting.

Verify your router is transmitting within twenty feet. Weak signals cause cameras to drop offline repeatedly during high-bandwidth streaming.

Open your mobile security application, scan the hardware QR code, and update your Wi-Fi credentials to secure the connection.

Signal Optimization

Prevent future feed drops

Clear line of sight

Assign static IPs

Separate network bands

Thick concrete walls and metal brackets degrade signal strength. Position your router away from dense structural barriers.

Prevent IP address conflicts by reserving a dedicated static IP for each security camera inside your home router settings.

Run your security cameras on a dedicated 2.4 GHz network band to maximize range and bypass congested 5 GHz channels.

Troubleshooting FAQ

Common offline questions

Why is my light solid red?

How often do feeds lag?

A solid red light usually indicates the camera is powered but cannot establish a secure connection to your Wi-Fi network. Follow our reset sequence.

Lagging feeds are typically caused by low upload bandwidth. Ensure your network has at least 2 Mbps upload speed dedicated per active camera stream.
