I have had this camera for about a year. It's been working great.
I came home today and when I got out of my car I heard an audible motor sound coming from the camera.
So I checked the monitor in my home and saw that it was recording fine but had slight movement like it was trying to move but couldn't because it was stuck. I then tried to pan tilt and zoom and noticed it was struggling to go right, then after playing with it more it struggled to go up. So I tried rebooting several times, and that didn't help. At that point I unplugged the 12v lead and decided to internet search to see what I could find.
I decided to lay down and watch some tv, after some hours I get up its now about 9pm and look at the cameras monitor and see what looks like a search light in the front driveway. I thought it was a helicopter. I go outside and see no helicopter. So I walk out to the driveway and notice my camera going in circles. The cat5 cable was still connected so I'm thinking its maybe a heat issue possibly.
I reconnected the 12v lead and tried to see if I could reboot it but I cant ping it and the discovery tool doesn't see it either. I'm stuck at what to do now.
