This self-help guide is designed to help you resolve issues where your OB20 camera goes Offline or becomes Inaccessible while in WiFi Mode. Please follow these steps to restore your connection:
Phase 1: Optimize WiFi Network Environment
- Check Router Status: Ensure your home router is functioning correctly and providing a stable internet connection.
- Proximity: Move the camera closer to the router. Physical obstacles like thick walls or long distances can significantly weaken the signal, causing frequent disconnections.
Phase 2: Power and Charging Check
-
Monitor Battery Level: Check the camera’s last recorded battery level in the App. Also, verify if you received any low battery push notifications.
- Mandatory Charging: If the battery is below 20%, the device may have shut down to protect itself. Take the camera indoors and charge it using a 5V/2A adapter for at least 10 hours.
-
Hardware Diagnosis: If the indicator light does not react at all when plugged into power, please contact customer support to initiate an after-sales return or exchange.
Phase 3: Reconnection and Re-binding
- Restart and Observe: Turn the device off and then on again to check the indicator light status.
-
Re-scan for Binding: If the indicator light is flashing red and blue alternately, it means the camera has lost its connection settings. Please use the App to re-scan the QR code and bind the device again.
Phase 4: Resolve Fixed Nighttime Offlining
- Identify the Cause: If your camera specifically goes offline at night, it is likely due to the infrared lights triggering power consumption protection.
-
Adjust Working Mode: Check your device settings in the App. If it is set to "All time" mode, change it to either "Adaptive" or "Normal" mode to reduce power draw at night.
Phase 5: Persistent or Frequent Disconnections
- System Loophole: If the device begins to disconnect frequently after several weeks of normal use, there may be an issue with the WiFi connection restart mechanism.
- After-Sales Path: If the standard troubleshooting steps above do not stabilize the connection, the device may require professional service.
- Your device NID (found on the device label or in App settings).
-
If convenient, please record a continuous video of approximately one minute, starting from the moment the device is powered on (clearly showing the indicator light and voice prompts).
