Power Cycle From Afar?

@Chess and @loonlakemi, there are two Wishlist requests you may want to visit and vote on.

Automatically restart the devices if it can't connect to wyze

I have the v1 cameras, and while I noticed their connectivity is much improved, there are still times when I can’t connect to the camera, and the app asks me to cycle to camera. That’s hard to do when I’m away from the house, or it requires me to install a smart plug which racks up the cost of these cameras. Right now, I have a mechanical timer that cuts the power to my camera that has its power supply in our attic once a night, but that requires more power, plus it kills my feed for 30 minutes …

Reboot Wyzecam, via cron on the Linux that it is running on

Restarting via ifttt / or the app assumes you can connect to it, if its hung/giving connection errors you cant. if you are planning a summer long trip abroad, and wont be at home to power cycle your devices manually, it would be good to have a way to have the device restart itself every few days . I know this can be done by adding a smart plug to the setup, but if Wyzecam is running Linux, cron is already built into it. thx
