I got a Netgear WN3000RPv3
It was setup as an extender with a different SSID than the original Wifi. In this case does it use different band or same band?
For now I don’t need a mesh, may be later for a bigger home.
Another issue which i faced is while flashing the firmware.
The cam wouldn’t read the firmware file and show blue solid blue light after pressing setup button while power on.
I had to format the card inside/via the cam and then add the firmware file in the root directory.
And the flashing worked (Finally got the solid blue light after pressing setup and plugging in power)
I guess Windows does fat32 format in a different way compared to cam?
I reformatted it again to fat32 on the PC. Will see how the cam works now.
Update : Tried reflashing old and new firmware but see no improvement.
The timeline still have portions of no recording. attaching the screenshot.
Does anyone still face such issue?
Formatting the micro SD card and manually installing the firmware worked. I tried many different things but formatting the SD card fixed it.
- format card
- copy over in demo.bin
- put card into camera
- push setup button while plugging in power
- wait 30 secs
- setup new device.
I hope that helps someone.
FWIW I went through 2 RMAs of a PAN and never got it to stop restarting every few hours with every possible troubleshooting technique. I have since removed all PANs from service. Not worth the unreliability.
I have been facing this on 1 of the pan cams after about 4-5 months of continuous use. I believe this may have to do with some rotation/position sensors and them getting dislodged/dislocated due to the pan/rotation of the cam. I am gonna open the cam n chk myself as I also tried several of the suggestions from the support site & forums & still have the issue making the cam useless
I’m still having the pan v1 issue. It restarts every 15 minutes or so. The first 2 years I had it, it worked fine. My other pan works fine, as does my Pan V2.
I find it funny how my “old” grandfathered cameras that have FREE cloud storage… are the ones that are “failing”…,…
