After one of week of being installed, suddenly one of my new cameras keeps going offline (VMS3130), Full battery, full signal to base station. Yesterday, I took out the battery, re-inserted, and the unit worked fine. Today...it went offline again. Restarting the base until via the app did not solve the problem. So, WHY does this one camera keep going off line????

You can also try removing the camera from Settings, My Devices and resync.

I have only had my system for two days now. During the setup it said that the camera needed to be updated and I did just that. The cameras worked for about two hours and then all of them went offline. After doing the reset and doing all of the steps over again one camera at a time two of them have stayed on but two of them remain offline. I need some help !!! I got the system to give my family some more protection and to also help protect my family. Anyone have any suggestions? If I can't get the camera to all work then I will have no choice but to send them back for a full refund. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mine does to, it's happened ever since we purchased them a month ago, it's only one camera and it's the one in the house. So frustrating.

The usual story of reset cameras or move them around to see if the fault follows is the usual tech garbage report they offer.
I had done all this and more with still the same fault. I had even changes the base station but still had 3 out of 11 going offline. After numerous chats and calls they finally sent 3 cameras out for replacement. Just received them now so about to replace and see what happens.

Failure to open a case with support means hardware issues can't be resolved. We see lots of issues reported here that would have been better reported directly to support. This forum can only offer possible solutions but hardware replacement ain't one.

Guess you didn't read my comments where I said many chats and phone calls before finally sending replacements

You and I aren't the only ones that read this thread. My comment was in general to all.

So, I have of course the same issue. 1 camera no matter if I swap locations or not... it goes offline after about 6 to 8 hours. The only correction to get to reconnect is pulling the battery and re-install. Goes back online - and then 8 hours later... Gone again.
The 1 camera works perfect and no issues. Love the system... but a 50% failure rate will cause me to return the entire system and look at NEST or something different.

The quick thing to do is to swap at the store. Otherwise a hardware issue can only be addressed by opening a case with support here (don't Google it).

I am having the same exact problem. I have had my system for over a year now and this just started happening about 2 months ago. I decided that I would live with it and it would go away. My symptoms are:
1. Camera fully charged and working for about 6-8 hours
2. After that it goes offline
3. Have to bring in and then take out batteries and put back in
4. This is the loop that I keep dealing with.
Please Note: It is the closest camera I have in my 4-Camera system. I have also done all resets and resynching with the camera and this does not help the issues.
I am about to go to Customer Service and have it looked at. This is extremely frustrating.

Swap cameras around temporarily to see if the problem stays with the camera or location.
The system had a 1 year warranty so, while support may be able to help, a replacement isn't possible.

So I took out the batteries and swapped for another set of batteries (in the camera that kept dropping offline) ...
I also moved the camera that kept dropping offline to another location that is closer to the base station.
I will keep you posted if / when the camera goes offline again.

I had the same issue - 4 cameras total. Last night, I moved the camera (#3) that kept going offline to another camera location and placed the camera (#1) with no issues to the other location. Just checked my cameras and NOW two cameras are down (#2 and #4). Frustrating.
Firmware is up to date.

There recent firmware updates - make sure all firmware is up to date. I've had to restart the base/cameras after an update on a few occasions to get things settled down.

I cancelled the subscription, updates didn't work. Was not really getting support.
Will not use these again, worst product ever touched.

Exactly the same for me. I have 4 cameras at my holiday house and it is one that does the same thing as yours. I have swapped cameras (even brought one from home to try) , removed batteries, moved the signal closer so it has the best signal of all the cameras. Latest firmware. .....all works fine when I'm there but as soon as I leave and access it from home it works once then goes offline. The system is more than 2 hours away. All the others are working fine.Extremely frustrating!
