About a hour ago all three of my cameras went off line. I know the battery life is gine (95-100% a/o yesterday) I tried rebooting the base sation and have three green lights,but still off line. Any suggestions?

Maybe interference? power outage? something to take them offline..

... take one of the camera that is easy to get to open and close the battery door ( pull pack/replace)  it may auto resync...

if not attempt a normal resync...

 

If NG, then remove the device in settings and bring back as new

 

repeat as needed

Thanks. I actually powered off the base staion for a couple of miniutes and reconnected. All are online now. My concern is this a common problem? I have had the cameras for less than a week. Whta would have happenend if this happend at night or when we were away?

what,  is a very hard thing to fiq out...

And Yes, it has happend before to a couple of others that required a power reboot of the base. ( you can check the update page to see if new SW as this happens more at that time ).

 

I haven't seen this issue myself, but I do havve a very stable power system and cable feed all on a ups, so it's possible something happen along those lines just to glitch it a bit.

 

I did recommend to remote vacation home users to use a wemo ( wifi operated ac outlet ) device to reboot the base remotely now as well as a ups... but for most its not needed.
