@Bijington why will you change your wifi? The cameras are requiring 2,4 Mhz with IPv4 addresses and your smartphone needs to be connected to the same, new network.

Currently the camera is trying to connect to our main router which is a distance from the camera. I have an access point near the camera but it wouldn’t connect. I have created a second 2.4GHz network on that access point and I wanted to connect the camera to that. When I tried it showed me the issue that I originally reported

@Bijington Which camera do have? or ? Please better use only 1 2,4 MHz WLAN. The didn‘t supports Mesh and you must switch of the power connection of the camera after installation of a repeater. When you switch on the power again, it which be connected to the strongest AP.

I have this one https://community.bosch-smarthome.com/t5/c-edswj98253/Eyes+Au%2525C3%25259Fenkamera/pd-p/EyesAussenkamera so the one that does not support mesh.

I recall I did have to turn off my access points when setting the camera up. This was 2 years ago. My issue now is that it doesn’t connect to the access points. Or if it does it doesn’t for long. If I check in the app I can see the WiFi signal jumps between almost full and almost empty.

My idea was to create a second SSID on the closest access point so it will appear as a different network to the camera entirely and it should then just work but that is when I see the issue reported in my original post. Is that issue presenting because it doesn’t support this?
