@joseph-chircop_497308027822318 So it didn't come back until the weekend. After I got there and resetted it, it came up fine again on my phone and let it run until this morning. Then I have installed the app on a 2nd android device, shared the connection on the first, and after scanning the code image on the 2nd it said"cannot connect to camera" and it was gone again.Any other suggestions?
@joseph-chircop_497308027822318 After getting a third operator sim card, seems that the problems are resolved, it has been two weeks now and no problem with sharing. Thanks for the help!
@joseph-chircop_497308027822318 With this operator the connection is good, apparently.I will do some local tests next time, also check out other sims in a good spot.There are two aspects here I need to follow:- signal strength : even if it disconnects, it should reconnect as most of the time the connection is fine. If it doesn't, it's a firmware issue.- operator limitations: I don't know of any limitations in my contract other than the monthly limit for the current sim. And I don't know what to look for, but there may be some hidden ones... For the other operator I have a full 4G setup that's been online for years but, as I said, in the other location the signal is too weak for the same operator.
@joseph-chircop_497308027822318 Thanks again for the input!This is indeed frustrating, especially because just 300m away I have a working setup with a local network connected through GSM modem, including a Reolink wifi camera. But here is too far and the signal is also weak for some operators (it's a valley below). I have tried a different sim from another operator and the signal was too weak, as it kept losing connection and blocking.I'll probably remove the camera and take it in a better spot where I can do some sim swap and other checks.In any case, only the connection is broken, it kept recording wild animals passing and also the battery is in good condition, despite a single possible hour of sun per day at this time of year.But I'll have to wait two weeks for that...
@joseph-chircop_497308027822318 I could, with the risk of not being able to access it again, as I have already left the area. Why would that be relevant though? I assume the scanning is just taking the code from the picture instead of having to enteri it manually...
@joseph-chircop_497308027822318 Good point, thanks!I'll check that out once (if) the camera comes back again, as it's in a remote location I don't have access to until next weekend.
@joseph-chircop_497308027822318 Thanks for the info. I have set almost the lowest quality possible. I am not sure which quality he has selected though. Today, after 12 hours I was able to connect again, worked fine for a few hours. Then he tried to connect (I wasn't connected), says it worked for 2 seconds then stopped. I haven't been able to reconnect since. We don't have windows clients (nor Windows OS), just Android phones.
Hi, I have a problem with a new Reolink Go Plus. I am supposed to share it with my neighbour in a remote location, but whenever he connects we both lose the connection for good, needs a reset to come alive again.Anyone having this issue or knowing a fix? Otherwise it's rendering it useless...Thanks!
