Might be time to try something besides Wyze for me
I've had 5 Wyze cams V2/V3 for quite a few years and just dealt with the issues. I rarely updated their flaky firmware and only if I had too. Mine are so old I've still got Cam Plus lite or whatever it was on most of them. I did $19.99 a year on one cam so I could switch back and forth on the PC and see a cam. In September it's goin to $29.99 I think I saw. I added TP Link smart plugs to each cam so when they go down I can reboot them. They drop wifi at weird intervals with no rhyme or reason, but 75% that's not an issue. The spotlight/floodlight accessory has to be physically unplugged to reset it. That's a hassle right there. I just got a Tapo cam from Walmart, the cheap 1080p one for around $20. So far so good with an SD card. I've been able play back something without a major problem. It does more than my Wyze cams and I don't have to pay extra. I bring up the camera on my phone and it's there ready to view clips. I'm thinking I might finally ditch the Wyze cams soon. When I look at how much time I've spent keeping them up and running well....
