Everytime when i want to change the WiFi SSID, I need to reset the camera. This is both in TAPO and VIGI Wifi Camera. Can you update the App such way that we can change the SSID without reset the camera

  @Home_Cameras must! For all TAPO devices to be able to change WIFI SSID connection in within the app, without having to reset all devices. Thanks!

The issue go even further, this issue is happening in all TAPO devices, I had to change the password of my WIFI and now I have to reset, remove and add back all my "smart" devices, because none of them allow me to change the newtwork configuration, not only the cameras, the smart plug and IR hubs as well.

 

This is far worse than annoying, it really take a lot of time and effort, while other companies allow you to do it from the same phone app.

 

I'm not buying any more devices from Tp-Link until I see this fixed on my current devices,

I cannot waste one full day of my life every time I change my network password... this is simply unacceptable and unproffessional.

 

Kind regards.

Add a feature that lets you scan for wifi networks near the camera and select a new wifi network to input credentials to connect to that network. After credentials are entered, camera reboots to apply changes. If connecting to the new network fails, camera reboots and connects to the old network, or returns to AP mode so you can connect directly to the camera to scan again. None of this unscrew your SD card cover and hold a button for 30 seconds to reset the entire camera settings BS.
