Now that I’m away from the house for a bit, I find that I need to switch one of the regular WyzeCam v2 units to the extended network since it’s decided it can’t get a good connection to the main one. It would be great if I could tell it to connect to the other one without having to be there in perso…

A couple of questions about this: Are you basically asking for the camera to store two different wifi SSIDs with the ability to direct the camera to switch between them on command? In your use case, why can’t you just leave the camera on the extended network signal all the time?

The camera was working fine… so I let it be, it’d been fine on the main wireless for a long time but, once I left it decided it wasn’t getting a good signal. So, I desire the ability to give it a replacement Wi-Fi login, not that it would need to maintain 2. …though, nah, I wasn’t thinking of that. …

That makes sense. The camera should have the ability to choose which network connection is the strongest and switch itself over to that network. The other thought is to get a range extender (signal repeater)… and broadcast using the same network information as the main router.

Thanks.! I went right over & voted for that. It’s close enough to be certain to cover being able to switch it to another WiFi signal in my book.
