Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Guardzilla camera, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Camera Offline/Not Connected:
  • Ensure the camera is powered on and the power adapter is securely connected.
  • Check your home Wi-Fi network. Ensure your router is working correctly and the Wi-Fi signal is strong where the camera is located.
  • If you have changed your Wi-Fi network name (SSID) or password, you may need to delete the camera from the Guardzilla App and re-add it as a new device to reconnect to the new Wi-Fi settings.
  • For iPhone users, try turning off "Wi-Fi Assist" or "Cellular Assist" in your phone's settings, as this can sometimes interfere with the camera's connection during setup or operation.
• Poor Video Quality:
  • Clean the camera lens with a soft, dry cloth.
  • Ensure adequate lighting in the monitored area.
  • Check your internet speed. A slow connection can affect streaming quality.
• Motion Alerts Not Working or Too Frequent:
  • Verify that motion detection is armed in the Guardzilla App.
  • Adjust the motion sensitivity settings within the app. Lower sensitivity for fewer alerts, higher for more.
  • Ensure the camera's field of view is not obstructed and is positioned to capture relevant motion.
• Two-Way Audio Issues:
