I am having problems with a few features regarding this camera. Just setting up the Eastern time zone isn’t working. There is no “contact us” phone number, so I guess you’re on your own…
I too am a technician and I can’t get this “ Made in China junk to work, stick with what ever you have ; that works
how do you reset?
reset your cam, to resolve this problem
I wish I had read these reviews before I ordered mine. I am a technology geek and I cannot get these to work.
Just received cameras x 4, and app is now telling me cannot support 5G WiFi. Can i amend this or return cameras as I am unable to change wifi
