Hi,
I have difficulties connecting the device to my network.
Power LED is ON, Internet Connection ON.
It appears to be online, I scanned my LAN, there it shows as:
IP: 10.0.1.86
MAC: 3c:37:86:57:08:cf
I have (temp) turned off my VPN and Firewall for it to come through, but after a morning of trying, it did not succeed.
Any tips?
BTW, the next step is to connect to HomeKit, I read in the other boards that this is oftentimes also not easy, so if you could anticipate that, that would be great.
Kind Regards,
NL-BKO

I tried editing the initial post, didn't work, so here is an addition:
I tried connecting with the following:
- mobile App iOS
- browser Safari
- browser Chrome
All with VPNs on and off.
The Router broadcasts the WIFI SSID to connect the cameras, so I conclude the device works.
I have also reset the device to factory settings using the small needle pin button on the back.

Turning off the VPN is definitely needed but not your firewall (unless you mean on your computer and/or phone).
What color are the LEDs? On isn't sufficient - they need to be green. Resetting the base requires that you hold the button until all LEDs start flashing amber. Did you do that?
I have had a case where the base appeared to be connected just fine to the Internet but couldn't be found. A different base worked great. You could just have a faulty base.

Thanks for looking into this and apologies for leaving some blanks.
- the LEDS are green
- Base reset to flashing Amber; done.
I meant the firewall on the PC, indeed.
I also have a 3000 base, that works fine indeed, so it remains vague why this one doesn't show up.
I'll try once more.
