@David L is it not possible to move this page 101 post into a top sticky inside this thread?

At least the 101 is on page 101 ROFL!
There is a setting for the motion alarm but not Ding-Dong volume

David L. doesn't have any posts on page 1 to put it in so it would take a site admin or moderator to change it.

never mind then I probably forgot since I'm not home.
Unfortunately not since I did not start the Thread.
Thanks,

Yeah it started on page 69, I moved it to try to make it easier for all to remember.

If Mike is an admin, we could probably ask for it to be moved to post 1 ? (I don't see any option to contact admins, yet, so maybe you know them)
On another note, its irritating that I can't do a packet capture effectively. I run Google Mesh in my house and it seems like if my bell connects to a different mesh AP from my packet sniffer, packets may not be intercepted? When I press the bell, packets must flow from the LAN IP of the bell out to some server, but they are not intercepted by wireshark in promiscuous mode. I only see occasional broadcast SSDP messages...

Some here have had to lower Resolution to help bandwidth issues. But if it was working fine a just recently started then you may have other issues. Added or changed anything lately? That is on your WiFi AP?

Your have to connect via a cable to your router to see them.
i recently upgraded my router from a linksys ea9500 AC5400 router to a Asus GT-AX11000, signal strength went up. bandwidth should have went up as well. but maybe i need to get that part figured out.
Since I was away for a while or may have just missed when they allowed the option within notification to not push. Also, decided to upgrade to Hik-Connect app to v4.3 and I do like the more modern UI even though there's not much benefit for the doorbell compared to other cameras from Hikvision.
Yeah Mike is Da Man here, we talked about it but since I do not have access to message 1 I won't be able to update it, which I seem to do frequently. We talked about a new Thread or even adding it to the WiKi section just never went further with it, most do seem to find the 101 eventually.
Only reason I started the 101 was to help with installation and repetitive questions but it quickly grew to what it is today. It is a sizable collection of all the user inputs/experiences/expertise from this very oversized Thread
I am far from a Technical writer but I have enjoyed keeping it up to date. I think what I enjoy the most is how nice and helpful everyone has been here.Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk
I also experienced all of a sudden disconnects of the DB1. It had functioned perfect for weeks before. Unfortunately I changed several things in my network setup in that time, so identification of the source was difficult.
Eventually I ended up replacing my main router (Turris Omnia) for a Netgear R7800. As in your situation wifi improved, especially the link quality on 2.4 GHz went up (-45/-101 dB).
This setup functioned for about 2-3 weeks without any disconnects and i thought i had tackled it. But then it started again but now there were no alterations to the network setup.
I tried everything that the DB1 get a stable connection to my NAS/NVR (Asustor 6202T). Sometimes it held its connection for may hours up to a full day, other times it disconnected within the hour.
Eventually I changed the DB1 to the 5 GHz Wifi. This setup is now running a few days without disconnects, so I'm hopeful. Why it all of a sudden prefers the 5 GHz over the 2.4 GHz is not logic to me (2.4 indicates a much better connection). Maybe it's a latency thing which is dependable of other wifi users (we work from home since a few weeks; Corona effect), who knows.
In stark contrast; I've got another Hikvision camera (4K) which connects to another AP over a distance of several tens of meters and stores its data on the same NAS/NVR. This setup is running for several months without any hick up.

when i first installed the camera. i had no lag, doorbell press sent the notification to my phone really quick
nowadays i get a good delay, and unstable image.
i ran max resolution and full frames, then dropped to a much lower resolution/bitrate/frame rate and i still get disconnection issues.
maybe its been in the weather too much and its acting up

Also consider new WiFi or other radio interference that might be around
new neighbors... lol
