Model: Tapo C520WS  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.8 Build 240606 Rel.39146n

For some time now I have noticed that my Tapo C520WS camera keeps disconnecting from my wifi network and doesn't reconnect back on its own while other tapo cameras are well connected on the same wifi network. I have to restart the camera evey time to reconnect it back to the wifi network. But found no solution so far.

Hi, 
You can refer to the instructions below to troubleshoot the unstable issue.
What should I do if my Tapo smart device keeps losing connection or going offline?
 

Please confirm the following information if the problem remains.
1. The LED status on the camera when the issue occurs.
2. How often does the issue occur?
3. The troubleshooting you did and the results.
4. The signal strength(RSSI value) of the camera when it's working.

 

Best Regards

Hi,
1. What's the model number of your Wi-Fi router?

 

2. If your router has a guest network, please try to reset the camera, reconfigure it, connect it to the guest Wi-Fi network, and check if it will work fine. 
Or you can enable a hotspot Wi-Fi on your phone, then reset and reconfigure the camera to connect to the hotspot Wi-Fi and check if the camera will work fine.

 

3. If the problem remains, please refer to the instructions below to collect the camera log for further analysis.

Best Regards

My Router model is Archer AX73+ Archer AX10 in easy mesh 

 

I guess the device C520WS it self is problematic I will go to service center next week to replace the device.

 

I have also emailed tplink about the matter and they don't seem to bother.

 

I Should have bought C200 model as I have 3 of them and they never have any problem.

Hi,
You can check if the below tips are helpful.
1. Check the wireless security type on the router, and set it to WPA2-PSK if it's not.
2. Make sure you have powered on the Tapo C520WS with the original power adapter rather than other power adapters and cords.
Best Regards

A câmara sempre esteve a funcionar bem. 
não terá sido alguma atualização de firmware da câmara. 
Está ligada com o cabo original. 
A  rede wi-fi está ligada a outros equipamentos e não há problemas só mesmo com a c520ws. 
não será uma avaria do equipamento? É muito chato esta situação.
