3. Test your camera’s video
streaming outside
Keep your camera plugged into an outlet and take
it outside. Hold it where you’d like to mount it
and check to make sure it’s streaming video to
the Nest app.
If you don’t see video, the Wi-Fi may not be strong
enough there – you’ll need to find a different spot
or move your Wi-Fi router.

4. Plan the cable path
Before you mount your camera, measure the
cable along the route where you’ll be installing
it. You can disconnect your camera from the
cable to make it easier to measure.
If there’s an existing opening, you may be able
to run the cable through it to the outside. If not,
you can use a ½" bit to drill a hole for the cable.
Make sure you know where all in-wall pipes
and electrical wires are before drilling.
