Frustrating ongoing connectivity issues with Eufy S380 HomeBase and Video Doorbell E340
​
I’m looking for advice or to see if anyone else has experienced this ongoing loop with Eufy support. I’ve been dealing with persistent connectivity issues with my Eufy Security S380 HomeBase (HomeBase 3) and Video Doorbell E340, and despite a long support thread, I’m still not seeing a resolution.
**The Issues:**
* The system frequently reports "unable to connect," yet oddly, I can still sometimes change motion settings in the app.
* Connection is unstable—when it does connect, it often drops after only a couple of minutes.
* The system only functions properly after multiple manual restarts.
**Troubleshooting So Far:**
* **Firmware:** Support pushed a firmware update (v3.8.2.0) back in March, which did not resolve the problem.
* **Hardware Replacements:** I was sent a replacement HomeBase 3 unit, but the issue persists on both the original and replacement hardware.
* **Support Loop:** I’ve been through multiple rounds of support, involving offers for partial refunds and further replacements. Currently, support is asking for serial numbers and confirmation on whether the original units (though I thought I was told to keep it) were returned, but I feel like I'm stuck in an endless support cycle without a functional product.
Has anyone dealt with this "unable to connect but can change settings" glitch before? Any suggestions on what to push for next?
I've connected with Ethernet as a last resort. Thinking that somehow maybe the Wi-Fi was messing up or something. I honestly think the home base is the issue because that's how I have the camera hooked up directly to the home base my router is way too far I can't really connect it to my router
