Q: Is a 5GHz router supported?

The camera primarily uses 2.4GHz WiFi for connection. If your router uses the same SSID (network name) for both 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands, it might connect directly. If your 5GHz and 2.4GHz networks have different SSIDs (e.g., "MyWiFi-2.4G" and "MyWiFi-5G"), please connect your mobile phone to the 2.4GHz network before configuring the camera.

Q: Password setting failed?
