Troubleshooting

No Power or LED Off

1. Check power source:
   • If using PoE, ensure injector/switch port has PoE enabled—no power means no boot.
   • If using adapter, confirm it’s plugged in and functional—replace adapter if needed.
2. Inspect cables: Reseat or replace the Ethernet cable—wear or damage can cut power & data link.

Network Connection Issues

1. Verify LED status:
   • Solid green = link up. Blinking green = activity. If off or red, follow next steps.
2. Wired connection:
   • Test a different LAN port on your switch/router—faulty ports block data.
   • Restart network equipment (router/switch) to clear glitches.
3. Wireless connection:
   • If in AP/WPS mode (blue LED), confirm setup completion.
   • Move camera closer to router (10–20 ft) to boost signal and reduce dropouts—Wi-Fi strength falls sharply with distance.
   • Avoid metal obstructions or thick walls between camera and router, which absorb or reflect Wi-Fi.

Video/Audio Performance Issues

1. Check bandwidth:
   • High resolution streams need more upload capacity—reduce simultaneous streams if needed.
2. Switch to wired: Ethernet avoids radio interference entirely.
3. Adjust stream settings: Lower resolution or frame rate in the Brinks Home App for smoother video.

Persistent Issues

1. Perform a factory reset (Factory Default).
2. After reset, contact us to re-add to your Brinks Home account. Text 469-513-8685 or call 469-391-4024.
