C310 constant amber light - This Tapo-device can only be controlled locally
Bought two Tapo C310 cameras. The first one was setup without any problems. With the second unit i had a problem connecting it to the Wi-Fi. After connecting to the Camera Wifi and following the setup steps the camera initialization failed. I did a reset to the camera and after this the camera was setup to wi-fi, but it is still not working properly. I get an constant amber light and a notification "This Tapo-device can only be controlled locally". When i open the error message it says that:
"Network is currently unstable. Please wait a while and try again
If the problem continues, do the following
- Check that your router has internet connectivity (it has as and all devices are working fine except this C310 unit)
- Disconnect the Tapo-device and plug the power back (Disconnected and reseted the device, wont fix the issue)
- Try to change your routers DNS-setting to 8.8.8.8. (Did this, didn't make a difference and this is not a network issue with my ISP or my internal wi-fi or LAN, no firewall, nat or port forwarding rules in use, everything else in my network works perfectly)."
The camera is 20 centimeters from the Wi-Fi unit and has excellent wi-fi connectivity.
If i press the "Check" button, nothing happens and the same problem occurs. I suspect that this is a faulty unit. Please advice.
