E1 Zoom - Problems with MESH Wlan?

beepo

Hi folks,

I received a brand new E1 Zoom and updated it to the latest available firmware.

Unfortunately the camera has some serious problems with my WIFI setup.
I'm using an AVM Fritzbox 7530 with two wire-connected wlan MESH repeater (AVM MESH 1750E).
All three wlan APs (router + two mesh repeater) provide 2,4 and 5 Ghz wlan.

About my problem:
The E1 Zoom camera is just 3 meters in direct line of sight away from mesh repeater. Ideal conditions for a safe and stable connection I would think. Every other device (tablet, notebook smartphone) connects with more than 800 Mbits to this access point.
Unfortunately the camera connects with a very low bitrate to the repeater (21 Mbit in 2.4 Ghz for example). The connected Synology surveillance station isn't able to keep up a 2 Mbit stream withoud disconnects after about a minute. The webinterface of the e1 zoom shows just two wlan bars - something that is impossible at just 3 meters with a well known mesh repeater like my AVM 1750e.

There's no workload on the wlan network and just 3 other networks around. Any ideas?

Hi, you can try to disable the mesh tech. And then connect the camera to the wifi and see if it can work better.
