Choose a place with reliable Wi-Fi reception
For best performance, your camera should be placed in a location where there is good, reliable Wi-Fi reception from
your router. You can easily test the range of the Wi-Fi connection by taking your camera to dierent areas of your
house and comparing the video streaming performance. (Make sure no other online video streaming service is
running at the same time.) If the video streams smoothly without interruption, you have found a good place for your
camera. Within the app, you can also view the Wi-Fi connection signal strength. You will notice the strength of the
wireless connection decreases as you move further away from your router.
Optimize motion detection
Your camera’s PIR (passive infrared) motion sensor detects heat signatures of moving objects.
You’ll generally get good detection results when the camera is pointing downwards at an angle to cover the area
where people will be walking across the camera’s path before heading directly towards it.
Try to minimize the camera's view so it only focuses on the area of importance.
Boost Wi-Fi reception
If you plan on placing your camera a long way away from your router, for example, your backyard where wireless
connectivity is poor, consider installing a Wi-Fi repeater or range extender. This can help increase your Wi-Fi
coverage area and improve the signal quality in the furthest corners of your house, giving you a strong connection
wherever your camera is.
Secure the magnetic stand
The supplied double-sided adhesive strips work best on smooth surfaces. When applying the strips, press rmly for
at least 30 seconds to achieve a stronger adhesive bond.
