@carlton1s For the battery doorbell they have to push the new fw and then either let it update automatically or force it manually. I do not use any NVR. I use SD, ftp and HA.

@user_829609175638167_829609175638167 choose other network and add the 2.4G SSID. Maybe it is hidden.

@user_897611227021462_897611227021462 what is your smartphone model and which version of the client you are running?

@reolink-oskar Wishing you a successful, joyful and healthy 2025.

@carlton1s First check that your Doorbell and NVr have the most recent fw. For the NVR go to reolink download center. For the doorbell it is v3.0.0.4430. To get the recent fw for doorbell you need to email support to push it to your UID.

@joseph_1979 this is me....I try to avoid in depth technicalities except when teaching.

@kimchigun they need to add a fully fletched IFTTT and it would be easy to instruct what other cams to perform. Maybe they are relying on 3rd party appl like HA to do this. But if I am Reolink SM I would do it in house. Programming is fun...


@Oskar Can you add Kim as a moderator to support customers. He is an experienced engineer too.

@kimchigun thanks buddy. You should be a moderator too to assist customers as you are a technical guy too. I am in networking, telecom and software development. Try to manage time. Compared to the network elements I work on...this is a peanut. But I am a customer like you and have no knowledge of what is inside. But when it communicates with other entities I can fully understand what's going on.

@pierre_185702440898690 just enable AI.

@user_902959861330057_902959861330057 in the absence of IR the camera will not be able to see clearly and detect objects. The one you are proposing is used in battery cams which use PIR detection.

@onlooker_890638347890931 I do agree with your suggestions, some of which have been proposed for years.

Kindly submit your request to support on support @ reolink . Com.

@user_678736611209466_678736611209466 Visually it didn't show any improvement but I proceeded with the upgrades. For sure there were issues which we don't see. We, engineers, hate upgrades as these normally bring new issues. But one can roll back if there is any major issue. As for the WIFI bar, personally, it doesn't impact me but others may.

@user_903762134487279_903762134487279 I fully agree with you. The specs should be updated accordingly.

@Oskar: Can you please take action on this? Thanks.

@ben_853404374126799 we have requested most of these ideas. However, I suggest you to submit them to support on support @ reolknk . Com

@user_901471950926075_901471950926075 report it to support on support @ reolink . Com

@tomsreolink We provide lots of ideas but the implementation is rather slow. I asked them to recruit more skillful programmers and testers.

@mamymam2013_465350299701478 Even the freezing of the frames when in Clear mode during playback right? Sure....that's why we work for.....

@user_901386068689094_901386068689094 Once you ack the push notification there is no way to see it in the list. We are requesting Reolink to add event history. However, they have added this feature to the home hub and some NVRs. I don't use any of these devices.

I think the time is 2 min after which it will take you to the playback.

@mamymam2013_465350299701478 Hello Mister. No I was not aware of. I normally check every Sunday or see someone posting in Reddit. I will upgrade and will let you know.

Thanks and enjoy the festive season.........Eat and drink good wine .... Life is extremely short.

Update: I did the update and the WIFI level remained unchanged. They added animal detection.

I upgraded the Android client to v4.51 and noticed that in playback the video freezes and the audio will mute when selecting Clear mode on both RLC511WA and RLC811WA. On v4.50 I do not get any freeze frames during playback. I will roll back to v4.50. Have requested support to investigate.

@reolink-oskar so far it can identify an object, namely, person, animal, vehicle, etc. We now need to identify who is that object eg...face recognition, access social media to get info about the person,....if animal which animal, car which model, etc.....Enhanced AI.
