4.1.10 Why won’t my camera connect wirelessly?
If your camera cannot connect wirelessly after you enable the wireless settings, power cycle the
camera by unplugging the power cable and plugging it back in. Make sure your wireless settings
are correct and match your wireless router or access point.
4.1.11 Why can’t I see my other cameras in multi-device WAN?
If you want to view all the cameras on WAN, verify that each camera you added in the
multi-device settings can be accessed using the DDNS name and port number. Make sure you
use the DDNS domain name, not the camera’s LAN IP. See How to Add Cameras in WAN.
4.1.12 I only see a black screen or undefined characters when using remote
login.
If you can remotely access the login page, this indicates that your DDNS settings are correct. If
you are unable to see live video and/or undefined characters, this may be due to Internet speed
issues or the camera using WiFi.
