Connection failure is usually caused by one of the following reasons. Please check them one by one:

• Incorrect Wi-Fi password

• Using a 5GHz Wi-Fi network
  CAM only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi.During setup, your phone must be connected to a 2.4GHz networkAfter setup, your phone may switch to 5GHz Wi-Fi or mobile data
• Device is too far from the router
  Keep the phone, CAM, and router within 6 feet (2 meters) during setup.

  Public Wi-Fi or networks with device limits may cause setup failure.
  Please try a stable home Wi-Fi network.
