Solution: How to tell if the camera is powered on? Turn off the lights or place the camera in a dark environment, if the infrared lights of the camera turn on, then the camera is powered on properly.
Cause 2. The camera doesn't connect to the same network with the computer that running the Reolink Client.
Solution: Connect the camera and your computer to the same network.
Cause 3. The scanning is blocked by firewalls and anti-virus software
Solution: Turn off the firewall and anti-virus software (e.g. Norton Security) and scan again.
Cause 4. The Client is not working properly.
