Hi all,

 

I need to use a camara to record security at a rural location that doesnt have wifi. So i researched the internet and read in various posts that this camera records motion events without wifi as long as the camera is set up correctly first (while connected to wifi). I bought the C101 and 64gb micro SD. At home I set up the camera to record motion events and confirmed everything works. But when I took it to the other location it didnt record anything. The next day, i brought it back home and plugged it in and it started recording motion events there.

 

Any guidance or suggestions are appreciated!

Hi,
On the location you want to place the camera but no Wi-Fi, please turn on the hotspot Wi-Fi on your phone and set the Wi-Fi name and password to be the same as your home Wi-Fi, reboot the camera to connect it to the hotspot Wi-Fi, after testing the detection and recording features are working, turn off the Wi-Fi on your phone and check if these features keep working.
Best Regards
