Wyze Floodlight Pro Firmware Beta Test. 4/30/2026

Is there anything to this from u ANDY or the developers when we will get an answer. Hopefully asap and Not weeks ot is critical

I see that you mentioned elsewhere that you’re using a newer beta firmware. If you can confirm that you’re using firmware version 2.2.1.1335 on all your affected Cam Floodlight Pros, then another Moderator or I will merge this topic to the more appropriate recent Beta topic for better visibility to Wyze.

correct, am using 2.2.1.1335 on all Floodlight Pros. Go ahead and put to more appropriate place for this issue.

Issue was also occurring on version just prior to 2.2.1.1335 as well.

Done. Thank you for the additional detail and for allowing me to move this. Hopefully having more affected users comment on this issue in this topic will get Wyze’s attention and prompt a remedy. :+1:

Yes I am using the current beta also 2.2.1.1335

Totally agree with you, Jeff. We should not be the guinea pigs for what should be a very simple test scenario in Wyze’s regression test suite for every release they do.

The behavior is akin to another TCP port that must be open for remote authentication at step 2 of 3 which isn’t necessary for local (same wifi network of camera) authentication.

I also get the same behavior that someone else encountered when it does work, it doesn’t last long (~15mins) before disconnecting.

As I mentioned, the kludgy workaroud I came up with is just to create a “Upload short clip” Automation shortcut that will at least give me the last 12 secs (near real time) of what’s going on.

Floodlights pro still don’t work on cellular on latest release app version 3.13.0(18)

This behavior is also seen in the following scenario:

Floodlight pro is using WiFi ssid ‘A’ and Wyze App device using ssid ‘B’. Cellular access is not in play, only WiFi.

If both are on same WiFi ssid, camera is fine.

Floodlight Pro firmware 2.2.1.1335

Wyze App IOS 3.13.0 (14)

Iphone 13 pro max IOS 26.4.2

How can your app device care what ssid it is on if you are not connected to the Wi-Fi access point because you are using cellular?

For me today, again, one business Xfinity network works with the cams, another business using Xfinity as their Internet doesn’t.

Cellular still not working.

My app device is not on cellular, but on WiFi. As I mentioned, on a different WiFi than the Floodlight Pro.

If the App device and Floodlight Pro are on the same WiFi ssid, it is fine.

Oh wow, I took that wrong!
“Floodlight pro is using WiFi ssid ‘A’ and Wyze App device using ssid ‘B’. Cellular access is not in play,”
I thought that meant that cellular wouldn’t work when app was on different ssid.
I see now, thanks!
So inside your own network, different ssids will not work.
But are you sure that your network is allowed to have wireless devices transit different ssids to begin with?
Seems like a standard default setting with wireless networks not allowing that kind of traffic, and you have to go into your settings to explicitly allow that.

But when I am out at a different business, I am pretty sure they don’t use my oddball ssid I have at home :smile:.

Chandan,

The example you used is ambiguous.

The terminology Crease used “external” network, or I used “local/remote” is in reference to the Floodlight Pro with respect to the WAN network connection.

Scenario X: Cellular will always be “external” or “remote” because Wyze cameras have no cellular connections.

Scenario Y: But with Wi-Fi, we don’t know if Router A is directly connected to Router B. If so, then this two level piggyback network is still considered “internal” or “local” with respect to the camera.

Scenario Z: But if Router A is in the same network path as the camera, yet Router B (hence SSID B) is connected via different WAN independent of the camera, then this is considered “external” or “remote”.

So are you referring to Scenario Z and not Scenario Y? If so, this has already been covered and you are not raising anything new.

The terminology being used can confuse Wyze developers so it’s important to be clear. I cringe at earlier post summary that just said “connects on Wi-Fi, doesn’t connect cellular” because it could be either internal or external Wi-Fi.

My apologies for being ambiguous.

WiFi ssid A on router A and WiFi ssid B on router B are subnets connected to the same wan level router, which connects to the Internet using Verizon FIOS fiber.

My terminology may still be not at the level expected of a Wyze beta user, but I hope I made my scenario clear enough for Wyze developers.

So, to make sure this isnt about how your network access points are set up, vs. the Floodlight Pros…
Do any other non-floodlight pro Wyze cams work fine with two different SSIDs?
If they also don’t work, it could be that the network is the issue here, and not the FLP beta firmware.

I also have all of my Wyze cameras on their own IOT SSID network at my house. I can’t connect to the floodlight pros from my main house WiFi network, from the cellular network, or from any other WiFi network outside of my house. I can connect to all other Wyze cameras from any of those networks. It is absolutely the latest floodlight pro beta firmware that is the issue as this became a problem on release of that.

I have 7 Floodlight Pros on 2 different ssids and about 25 other cams in a mix of ver2, ver3, pan v1, pan v3, ver4, OG, and OG Tel, and about 30 sensors, comprising of entry V2s, temp sensors, motion detectors, etc on multiple mesh wifis and plain wifis.

I also have non Wyze IOTs, for a total of more than 200. I am currently updating WiFi ssids as to stay below capacity on each WiFis.

All these were running fine till now, except with the usual Wyze cameras getting stuck at various stages of 1 of 3, 2 of 3, and 3 of 3 before live feeds, but will normally be fine after some time.

After Floodlight Pro firmware was updated to 2.2.1.1335, only the Floodlight Pros started the behavior of getting stuck on 2 of 3 while giving life feed. All other cameras are fine.

These Floodlight Pros are working as notifications are sent out as usual. If I equalize the ssid of my phone with the ssid of the Floodlight Pro, the live camera feed is available.

I earlier said cellular is not in play, because for my testing, my phone is on WiFi with the cams on various other and same WiFis, and all these WiFis connect with the internet using fiber.

I have not done any scenario where my phone is on cellular.

Wow thank you guys! And I see flos are on sale again.

I have 3, and another shared with me.

7!!??

Wow, I bow to you! I couldn’t think of another place to put another so forgoed the sale.

Respect dude!!!
