I am having an issue where the last month if I am not connected to wifi and am instead connected to me cellular network, I am unable to view any of my cameras until I am back on wifi. When I try it says they are all offline, but then magically re appear when I am connected to wifi. This has never happened before and I’ve had these cameras since the beginning. I have unlimited data on verizon with great service. Is anyone else running into this?

> Can someone explain why I am still unable to connect to my Wyze cameras via the app when not on my home Wi-Fi system. Wyze where are you? I have nine Wyze cameras in my home and they are completely unusable because I am unable to view my cameras while away. This is the new event just started recently. How come this is still going on I’ve paid a lot of money for my cameras. I’ve tried all of the suggested fixes yet nothing works. My cameras are useless. We have them so we can monitor the home …

No issues here either when connecting via 4G or 5G versus connecting over WiFi

Maybe it’s just one mobile carrier???

On AT&T (FirstNet) cellular here

The first post says the OP has Verizon. I have Verizon here in the Bay area and I checked my cams from the golf course this morning using 4G. I just shut Wi-Fi off on my phone again and tested my cams again and I can view all.?

Do you have a VPN or anything enabled? Most likely not because it works on WiFi but worth a check

I am on Verizon and see the Fluctuation between 4GLTE and 5GUW. But I am not have any issues Streaming my cameras over Cell Service. I am also not having any issues via WiFi.

Have you tried the following:

- In the app go to Account \> App Settings and then Clear Cache there.
- Log out of the App by tapping Log Out at the bottom of the Account Tab
- Reboot the Phone
- Logon and see if everything works for you.

You can also power cycle your cameras, to force them to reconnect to Wyze. Provided they are in a place you can get to.

My cameras used to load best over T-Mobile on my phone with the wifi off. Connected over home wifi, the cameras were slower with multiple connect attempts before loading.  
Now the opposite is true; no cameras will connect with the phone just on cell signal, but 2 out of six cameras work if I turn on wifi.  
As is always the case, I’ll wait a few weeks or months until Wyze decides to fix it, or it starts working because they broke something else.  
I waited 9 months one time for things to get fixed. The cameras are fun, but only toys after all.
