" ... This camera connected to my wifi but refused to pair with my iPhone 12. ... "
" ... After many many MANY attempts, and multiple resets due to wifi connection failed. ... Our wifi is not 5G, we’ve connected the cameras close to our router and yet BOTH cameras still fail to connect to wifi and again we did turn on/off our router multiple times. ... "
" ... It didn't connect with us but hopefully for someone else. ... "
" ... Went to ATT and they couldn’t get it to work either. ... "
" ... I bought to use with the echo show and for this purpose it does not work. ... It claims to work with Alexa but it’s severely lacking and useless for that purpose. ... "
" ... They don't advertise that the product only works with certain wifi networks and wifi is required for it to even turn on. ... It wouldn't connect to my wifi and I never even got to try to use it. ... "
" ... i spent 3 days trying to get this connected and it would not work. ... i even put it on my 2g network . ... "

" ... The picture quality is impressive for the dome POV and the sound could be a little better. ... "

" ... It’s constantly loosing connectivity and the reset is often required. ... "
" ... I could not get the camera to give a live feed for more than a few seconds without it then freezing up, I don't know if signing up for the their (paid) i-cloud account would have resolved the problem, as some reviewers indicated, but, since I had no desire or inclination to do so, I found the camera useless for my purpose. ...
