We are thinking about getting the wizen home security hub, keypad, 4 motion sensors. I currently have 3 v2 cam plus outside my home. So I have some questions. Will the v2 cameras link to the hub? Do I need to upgrade my cameras? From what I read. there is an audible alarm/sound goes from hub to came…

I installed the HMS 1 year ago with 10 entry sensors, 8 motion detectors, 10 CamV3, 1 PanCam, 1 Doorbell cam, 1 Thermostat and 3 climate Sensors. To answer your questions: [image] ahorvath55: Will the v2 cameras link to the hub? A: yes and no. You can have 5 of your cams in the home monitor…

wow. thank you. I guess by all the stuff you have you like.

Yes. I did a lot of research prior to investing. I wanted a low cost DIY solution that was scalable and cross platform ecosystem friendly. Because most of the others are married to one ecosystem (google\amazon etc) I found that Wyze was able to be more friendly on the Amazon platform which is what I…

Nice write-up, and very helpful.

It would have taken me a while to discover what you have covered in one post.

I would really reconsider Wyze for a Home Security System. They can’t even keep their own system secure. https://www.theverge.com/23003418/wyze-cam-v1-vulnerability-no-patch-bitdefender-responsible-disclosure

You go ahead and reconsider. I will keep my HMS since all equipment is behind a NAT router with Firewall, patch has been implemented, and the V1 is obsolete and no longer supported. Where were you 3 Years ago when this was discovered? Let me know the next time the sky is falling.

Easy now, Don’t shoot the messenger. All I’m saying is that if that article is true, and the vulnerability was known to Wyze in 2019 and rather than patch it then and there they quietly discontinued the V1 and only patched the V2 and V3 3 years after the discovery without notifying any of the user…

After I purchased, received HSS. I tried for 2 days to get the system up and running. Downing apps, adding the devices, getting it on 3 mobile devices. It was such a P.I.A. Contacting support all the time. I gave up. Cancelled the the HSS, return it. I went with a different company that took abt 2 h…

It’s clickbait and has nothing whatsoever to do with the HMS. This was (past tense) an issue with the V1. To imply that it does by posting it here in an HMS topic is irresponsible and clearly motivated by an emotional response, not rationale. Your argument is purely speculative and has no merit in f…
