Do NOT BUY this camera.   We purchased a pack of pro cameras for our home.  Not only was the installation horrible, but the battery is total crap.  The cameras kept locking up and would not allow us to do live positioning of the cameras.   If that wasn’t bad enough, after 12 hours the batteries were all at 15%.  We never even set the cameras and all of them were basically drained.   I am returning this and will not purchase another set.  Horrible experience..    I cant imagine actually having them in place and having to replace the batteries daily.   What a rip off.   DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT.    HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE.

Scorpiogsm,

 

The symptoms you describe could be a sign of WiFi interference or poor signal strength due to range. Where were the cameras positioning during setup? How far away from your router/base were they? What did the WiFi signal strength icon show?
