I finally found a workaround that seems to be solving the issue.

Set up a guest network on your wifi router and only put the WCPv3 on that network.  
My steps:

1. Power cycle the WCPv3
2. Delete the camera through app
3. Setup again under the new guest network

Note: I also bound the IP and MAC address to my WCPv3 but I’m uncertain if this had any effect on the issue.

Do you recall the make & model of the cable you used?
