To reconnect your outdoor camera to your network using the Access Point (AP) Mode:

  1. Press and hold the WPS/Reset button on the back of the video camera for 5 to 7 seconds until the LED starts flashing white then immediately release it.

  6. Click Ok in the pop-up window that appears asking to refer to the website.

Wait for the video device to connect

To reconnect a video device to a Wi-Fi network using WPS mode:

This method applies to all WPS-enabled video devices.

Find the WPS button on the video device and router

Note: WPS is not available on all routers. Refer to the router's installation manual for additional instructions.

  1. Locate the WPS button on the router. Typically, there is a button labeled WPS, , or .
  2. Locate the WPS button on the video device. On most video device models, the button is labeled WPS or Reset. 

                                                

Put the video device and router into WPS pairing mode.

  1. Hold the WPS button for about 2 to 3 seconds (or until the LED begins to flash blue) to put the video device into WPS mode.
  2. Press the WPS button on the router for 1 to 6 seconds to put the router into WPS mode. The time can vary significantly between router models. Typically, a light flashes on the router to indicate it is in WPS mode. If there is no LED or a blinking red LED, WPS might be disabled on the router.

Wait for the video device to connect

  1. Wait approximately 2 minutes for the video device to connect to the router.

The video device is connected when the status LED stays solid green.
