How can I complete setup for my Wireless Doorbell Camera without my Wi-Fi information?

If you don’t know your Wi-Fi name or password, you may still be able to set up your Wireless Doorbell Camera depending on your router.

Check your router for a button that says WPS. If your router has a button with this acronym or an image that looks like the image below, please proceed with the following steps.

      • When firmware updates are available, your Wireless Doorbell Camera will update automatically but it may take an additional 15 minutes to complete setup. (The progress bar will not move along steadily- each update takes a variable amount of time)

      • If installation fails, press “Retry”- the firmware updates may have caused the installation process to time out.

  12. Complete the physical installation by following the instructions in the manual here.
