I have problem with my IP camera. I've got cheap Chinese camera 3MP using with iCSee application and it work without problem about 1 year and now it's restarting few times per day. Usually I see error about network
Error content:Network connection timeout, please try again

Usually after restarting itself camera use default position in corner and I can't see anything. Camera changing Network connection from RPS to P2P and Transmit Mode. How to fix this problem? Why camera restarting itself? It's poor connection or something is wro g with power supply? Restore factory settings not helping.

I have a V380 bulb camera which behaved in a similar way, namely, as soon as the power was switched on, the device kept saying restarting every minute or so, while having a constant noise in the background (emitted from it's speaker).

I have found a youtube video which showed someone disassembling the camera and replacing the small electronic board that converted the 220V to 5V with the electronic circuit found in a phone charger.

As soon as I did that, the camera started working perfectly!!!

Here's the youtube video:


PS: before attempting to do any change to the device, I have verified with a volt meter the output of the 220V to 5V electronic circuit found in the bulb camera and found that the output was only 2.5V.

IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR IT YOURSELF UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING! THERE IS A HIGH CHANCE OF ELECTROCUTION !!!
