We have a Kasa camera which as many as four people watch at once in a 1080 mode. We keep running out of bandwidth and wonder a few things.

 

  • Does turning on or off cut down on the data usage?
  • When multiple people watch it at once, does it pull more internet data from the webcam?
  • If we turn off the "Record Motion that Lasts at Least" will save data from being uploaded to the cloud?

 

What are some ways we can save on banwidth other the thing ways mentioend above?

Thanks

Hello, you can turn on privacy mode to cut down the data usage; while in this way, the camera cannot detect the motion anymore. 

 

Second, with more people watch the video at the same time, more data usage will be used. 

 

You can customize "Record Motion that Lasts at Least" and make it longer. It will reduce the data usage to some extent; But the motion shorter than the value you set won't be recorded. 

 

May it help.
