    We purchased 3 set for each room, but don't know why, the 2nd and 3rd one couldn't keep connecting to wifi continuously. Once turn off the app and go back, the wifi was disconnected. I had to repeat the searching wifi to reconnect.

    We purchased this camera for downstairs, we have several pro 4 we use outside and several essential cams we use in the bedrooms. The camera works great, connected to Wi-Fi with no problems but we end up exchanging it for another essential just because once you are use to wireless, it’s hard to go back to dealing with wires.
