Note: Make sure that the wireless signal is at least two bars or three bars. One bar signal is too weak to establish a stable connection. If the WiFi signal strength is low/weak, you may refer to the following guides to improve the WiFi signal strength of the wireless camera.

  • Shorten the distance between your wireless camera and the router.
  • Change the wireless channel on your router to avoid interference from WiFi networks around.
  • Keep the wireless camera some distance away from appliances or electronic devices like microwaves, computers, wireless routers, etc.
  • Install the wireless camera somewhere with fewer walls and obstacles in between the router.
  • Fasten the antennas on the wireless camera.
  • Change a router that has higher wireless transmitting power.
  • Install a WiFi extender.
