92.5% |
connection is so terrible"the camera itself isn't bad by any means and especially for £40 however the biggest fault i have with it is the connection and even though i have a wifi extender literally less than 4 metres away from the camera really the connection is still garbage half the time it says the camera isn't on which is rubbish because i know it's on it's just the connection is so terrible"

absolutely great"i was very impressed how far away from the router these cameras are able to work easy to set up small and neat compared to others on the market no need to search through hours of footage it just gets the bit you need and saves it on amazon's server its handy when you are out of the home and a parcel comes i received a message on my phone then i told him where to put my parcel via the 2 way audio : absolutely great thanks amazon"
