    What doorbell camera in 2022?

    I have purchased 2 of the units thinking 1st one was faulty. I swapped 3 different transformers thinking it was a power issue even though each transformer tested fine.

    DS-HD1 Hikvision Doorbell offline, can't get on network

    1 week of live on the DB1 on the TP-Link and will say it has not had 1 fall out. I think my theory on the wifi getting week and the Doorbell over drawing power causing it to go offline had some basis to it. I have every one of the TP Link APs set up the same and TP link website does not list...
