Setup

1. App Download

Download the 'Wansview Cloud' app from your mobile device's app store (available on iOS and Android). Create an account or log in if you already have one.

Connect the power adapter to the camera and plug it into a power outlet. The camera will power on and its indicator light will begin to flash.

3. Network Connection

The Wansview W6 camera supports both Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections. For Wi-Fi setup, ensure your router is broadcasting a 2.4GHz network, as the camera does not support 5GHz Wi-Fi. Follow the in-app instructions to connect your camera to your home network. For Ethernet connection, simply plug an Ethernet cable from your router into the camera's Ethernet port.

Note: If you need to change the Wi-Fi connection after initial setup, a physical reset of the camera may be required. Ensure you have easy access to the camera's reset button.

4. Mounting

Select a suitable outdoor location for your camera, ensuring a strong Wi-Fi signal if using a wireless connection. Use the provided mounting accessories to securely attach the camera to a wall or other stable surface. The camera's cable requires a hole of approximately 1.5 inches for proper routing through a wall.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Wansview W6 camera, consider the following common solutions:

• Poor Wi-Fi Signal: Ensure the camera is within range of a strong 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signal. Obstacles like thick walls or other electronic devices can interfere. Consider relocating the camera or using a Wi-Fi extender.
• Difficulty Changing Wi-Fi: If you need to connect the camera to a new Wi-Fi network, you may need to perform a factory reset by pressing the physical reset button on the camera's cable.
• Installation Challenges: Be aware that the camera's cable requires a relatively large hole (approx. 1.5 inches) for routing through walls. Plan your installation carefully to accommodate this.
• Two-Way Audio Clarity: If two-way audio is unclear at higher volumes, try adjusting the volume settings in the app or speaking closer to your device's microphone.
• Motion Detection Recording Length: Motion-triggered recordings are typically short (e.g., 10 seconds). If you require longer continuous recording, consider subscribing to cloud storage or ensuring sufficient local SD card storage for continuous recording settings if available.
