6. Troubleshooting
- Camera not connecting to Wi-Fi:
Ensure your Wi-Fi network is 2.4GHz. The camera does not support 5GHz. Check Wi-Fi signal strength at the camera's location. Restart your router and the camera, then attempt reconnection.
- Poor image quality:
Clean the camera lens. Ensure there are no obstructions. Check your Wi-Fi connection speed; a weak signal can affect video streaming quality.
- Motion detection not working or too many false alarms:
Adjust the PIR sensitivity settings in the "Adorcam" app. Ensure the camera is positioned correctly to avoid detecting irrelevant motion (e.g., moving branches, distant traffic).
- Battery draining quickly:
Frequent motion detection events, live view access, and cold temperatures can reduce battery life. Reduce PIR sensitivity or frequency of live view access if possible. Ensure the camera is fully charged.
- Two-way audio issues:
Check the volume settings on your smartphone and within the "Adorcam" app. Ensure there are no obstructions blocking the camera's microphone or speaker.
