Outdoor Cameras Bug Suspicions

I have long thought access control has something to do with the bug where outdoor cameras still detect motion, but submit black, blank, no videos.

I've had it happen to multiple cameras in the past multiple times too and always thought it was related to reboots.

Though I certainly can't prove it, or send log files like inexpensive $20 cameras are capable of.

Today I soft rebooted the router and access points.

4 of 5 cameras reconnected as they "usually do".

Frech door camera had the bug, obviously connected sorta, but No Video uploads etc. detection with no video.

Tried manual live view, same as past, won't open live view.

Opened router management settings, turned access control off, switched to SS app, French door camera opened live view.

They drop something in the reconnect process, MAC, or something, I don't know or really care at this point.

Investigate as you wish or not.🀷
