1.5 System Requirements
Position your camera in 50ft/15m distance from the router and close to an DC Plug. The
included power cord is 8 ft long. If you need a longer power cord, it should be within 16
ft, if longer, the voltage will not be stable. Users can extend Wi-Fi signal with Wi-Fi
extenders and get a longer power cord, if needed. Check the quality of the video before
final mounting. In indoor installations, the range might be less if metal objects or thick
walls and ceilings are between the camera and the router. Quality is affected also by the
number of devices connected to the network and by interferences from other
networks/devices. If video quality is not good, we advise to position the camera closer to
the router or reduce resolution and the frame rate (fps).
Users can place indoor cameras in protected outdoor areas (such as a covered porch) as
long as it remains dry and within its operating temperature range of -10 to 50 degrees C.
The camera is not waterproof and any exposure to moisture and/or temperatures outside
the operating range will void our one-year limited warranty. Users can guard outdoors by
placing the camera behind a window, making sure to disable IR Leds and open the
outdoor lights.
The Wansview Camera is a P2P camera as long as the camera is connected to the internet. Users
can view the camera from smartphones/tablets or PC, wherever they are using cellular data or
Wi-Fi connections. If users don’t want to use the internet to access the camera, and choose to
access only in their own private network/LAN, we can supply a tool which can disable P2P and
DDNS functionalities. Please contact our customer service.
