[@kygersoft]

How please? I was about to ask about nas?

[@doc7782]

@@kygersoft I am using an NVR.....just connect the NVR to the same LAN as of the cameras, assign the cameras a static ip through address reservation in your main router and you r good to go

[@kygersoft]

@@doc7782 and storing video on NAS/NVR in this case don't need or consume internet bandwidth?, Just uses the local wifi network even if internet is down?

[@TinaReynolds-y4g]

Very helpful thank you I have been looking for a camera to put in my window and thanks to you I have now purchased one. 👍😁

[@shawndyliu]

Just bought one, the page says it's wireless, but later I found out it can't operate without plugging that long wire... that's really annoying.

[@freemanbyers6851]

Do you have to use a SD card ?

[@terrywalker348]

Very useful info, many thanks.

[@stewartmcinroy5617]

Could always screen record if you don't have SD card

[@raiderjacksally]

Thank you for the review. It helps a lot.

[@shawndyliu]

Can the device operate wirelessly? I felt the long wire is quite messy.

[@ashkumar8797]

Thanks for this amazing video.

[@dhruv.pandey93]

Does the camera consumes the wifi bandwidth all day even when it is recording to sd card?

[@equinecentssensibilityprod361]

This won't flash green..it doesn't seem to recognise WiFi? Any advice please

[@elciojunior4002]

Did you manage to solve it?

[@shamana83]

How are the recorded files stored on the SD card? On my SD card 128GB, the app made couple hundreds of files and I can't find any logic at all.

[@Mangold108]

CAN YOU PLEASE COMPARE IT WITH THEEUFY (2K)? THANKS!

[@anishkumarg6397]

Internet data connection needed or just wifi hotspot just like in sharing files through hotspot in Mobile phones?

[@jcadag8789]

When the night mode turns on is the infra led visible or can you see the infrared Led is on?

[@jessetabak]

Thanks mate

[@gaming_arena_no_1]

If the camera is not connected to wifi, will it still record motion detected video on sd card?

[@Potatoalex538]

Nop

[@iamMaazHussain]

Can we use app on a different wifi after the initial setup? I am thinking for my office. So I can see what's going on in my office from my home?

[@TavHD]

I have never been able to access the cameras from another WiFi network, but I can access them from the 4G on my phone wherever I am.

[@iamMaazHussain]

@@TavHD thanks

[@janraey]

Is it possible to configure the camera by web gui with your browser instead of using a smartphone app? Many thanks.

[@TavHD]

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think so.

[@lastschicker]

I use this with iSpy free software

[@hugospectrum4v]

How you configure it? Can't do it

[@unclebunkum]

Great Video...Thanks

[@Rose_19911]

hello guys, can I just quickly ask, when I set it to notify my phone for signs of movement, when I turn the alarm off when I get in, I want the notifications to stop as well (as i’m home myself) can this be changed at all? at the moment it just buzzes my phone when it’s just me at home

[@andrewkennan8812]

does it work ok setting it up at a window, to look out the window to keep an eye on my car..

[@TavHD]

Yes, as long as you don't put it in night mode when it's dark as you will get too much reflection from the infrared

[@BIGMO2D]

if someone spoke to the camera, could I be notified through my phone ?

[@Potatoalex538]

The worst about this camera is that you cant live watched it from your office when the camera is at home I need wifi connection so bad. I bought it thinking i can see live from far away but it dont work like tah

[@quitlife9279]

Is the sd card encrypted? Or can anyone access the recording files by getting the sd card out of the camera?

[@TavHD]

Anyone can access the files on the card

[@owascoshaw]

I have a Kasa eco system at home. Could I add this to that system because it’s a TP-link? I’m trying to avoid downloading any more apps

[@TavHD]

I don't believe so. You will need a separate app

[@bigguyoliver]

Can this still record even without internet connection

[@TavHD]

Don't think so

[@michaelmcgeehan717]

Great video

[@XGAMEST]

it will be good to film your face talking because we need to see if there's audio/visual lag

[@robotpainter7159]

Is it works without the cable?

[@TavHD]

No

[@greatbaracuda6164]

will it work without mobile phone?

[@Potatoalex538]

Yes but you need hotspots to work and SD card to record you can't take SD card after it gets recorded

[@vim1471]

Can I download parts of the recording from SDcard onto my phone using the app and WiFi?

[@TavHD]

Yes you can

[@stephenfarrell3075]

Good morning like to ask you every is apart from my internet don't work on a. Stops

[@arjunar7588]

I just bought this product. The camera is discovered in the app, but no wifi networks show up for the camera to connect to. Any idea?

[@sarahstoten33]

I’m the same can’t set up either

[@arjunar7588]

@@sarahstoten33 Hey, I figured it out. I installed the app in my wife's phone. Went through the same steps and then the camera discovered WiFi signals. Maybe some issue in app. Try installing the app in another phone. Good Luck!

[@PatIsaac-w7z]

I’ve had to download WiFi apps cz I don’t have WiFi at home but the typo customer services said I can use it via 4g. I’m so confused and it’s being delivered today

[@hugospectrum4v]

It has cloud storage,

[@theunknown0910]

Is internet/wifi required to record on sd card?

[@TavHD]

I'm not 100% sure, but I would assume so as everything is controlled through the app using Wi-Fi.

[@hugospectrum4v]

No.

[@markaldrinreyes]

in your experience, how many days it take to full the 64gb sd card? also what happens when it is full does it delete the older captions

[@TavHD]

It takes about three weeks to fill the card. That's right, the oldest footage gets deleted when the card is full.

[@sidness887]

Is the app free?

[@TavHD]

Yes, it's free.

[@Manuqtix.Manuqtix]

Useless thing doesn’t work. It gets stuck on pairing devices and doesn’t connect

[@bykats]

Does it have a wide lense?

[@TavHD]

Yes it does.
