Ialso have an outdoor wifi chinese cam, actually I have 4 of it: X8900-MH36. On iPad( with 360eye app) they are working. At windows 10 they are working with MVCS_lite software. They are using MMCC (multimedia conference control tool) and port 5050. How to get these cams working with NCS i.e. VLC. I tried all the rtsp-options mentioned in this thread.

If it is this camera -MH36-Wireless-WiFi-HD-720P-IP-Monitor-Camera-IR-Night-Vision-Home-Security-Camera-p-1132288.html is says in the pictures with the camera it support onvif standard. So when adding the camera to NCS use the tab for ONVIF source.


Thx for responding! Yes thats the cam. I tried onvif source but in the device browser it did not find any device in my ip range.

In mvcs_lite I connected by adding manual a cam with the following data:


Port 554 is open so it support rtsp.

It might support onvif, but not on any standard port. Download onvif device manager and see if that opens the cam. There you get the rtsp url.

Or it can be easy like add cam with tab custom url. Set stream type to rtsp_tcp. Address is rtsp://username:passworf@cameraIP:554/


Henrik logged from remote to my system and tried to find the URL for this cam but he could not find it. Than he did some work at his own computer and relogged in from remote to my system in the hope to find something with Wireshark. What we saw was an encryption in stead of an URL, which probably pointed to some chinese characters. Finally he could not do anything more for me. I thanked him for the lot of time he spend to help me, which is very very appreciable!


Some Reolink users may encounter an issue similar to this: "Reolink camera not connecting to WiFi". The truth is, wireless IP camera connectivity issues are a common problem, with users reporting difficulties connecting to WiFi networks or experiencing dropped connections. Whether you're using a popular brand like Arlo, Nest, Ring, Amcrest, Foscam, Tenvis, Easyn, TP-Link, Imou camera not connecting to WiFi, or even other brands of IP camera, we have 9 effective solutions to resolve the issue in minutes.


Check if the antennas are fixed well or not at the first place when you find the security cameras not connected to Internet or you camera are not showing network. Normally, when you get the product package, the antennas are not connected to the camera. You need to manually install the antennas to the wireless IP camera. Make sure you've tightened the antennas to the camera.


Check if the power supply of the wireless IP camera is working properly. Power outages can also cause that surveillance cameras won't connect to router. Make sure the power adapter is plugged into a working socket. If you get a battery-powered wireless IP camera, check if the battery is still at work. Change or charge up the battery.


If you finish all the two steps above and still have questions like "why won't my security camera connect to my wifi", you may have to check the configuration of your cameras. For many times camera Internet connection failure only due to the password. Make sure the WiFi login password is correct. Sometimes you get many passwords and you may mix them up. Check the password list and ensure the password you enter is the right one of the WiFi.


Incorrect SSID settings may make your IP camera WiFi connection fail. Normally, you need to set the SSID when the first time you set up your newly bought wireless IP camera. Please set it the same as the SSID of your router. To work it out, you need the IP camera software on computer or on your mobile phone. Here we take Reolink IP camera WiFi setup as the example.


And another thing that would cause "wired IP camera keeps going offline", "P2P failed to connect", or "can't setup offline camera" is your router firewall. Some routers would block security camera connections if the firewall is on.


If there is a bad reach, the IP camera can't find your WiFi signal, and it cannot connect to the WiFi router. The IP camera should not be too far from the router. Check the distance between the IP camera and the router. The manufacturer or the IP camera company website could have that information.


If the WiFi signal is less than one bar, it means your IP camera is too far away from the router or there might be too many barriers (such as walls) between the two. Just get the camera closer to the router. Please not that all security IP WiFi cameras need a stronger WiFi signal than laptops and cellphones.


At some cases, when you connect via LAN cable you may get IP address (i.e., 192.168.0.99), and the wireless connection may be picking up a different IP address (i.e., 192.168.0.55). You won't see it if you set the camera for DHCP. Or you may suffer IP address conflicts. Check if the IP address of you camera has issues by using commands.


As the 2.4GHz frequency is widely used by a host of home appliances like phones, tablets and microwave ovens, it is more likely to suffer interference during data transmission due to overcrowding of the channels.


If you find that the 2.4 GHz band is on a heavy burden, simply switch the frequency band to 5 GHz (5.8 GHz) for higher data transmission rate and thus, reducing the chances of signal loss and interference.


Check the manufacturer or the IP camera company website to see if there is new firmware released. If yes, update to the latest firmware version for your wireless IP camera. The new firmware could fix the IP camera WiFi not working issue. Make sure you've downloaded the correct version for the camera.


If you've tried all the solutions but still failed, there is probably because of the hardware issues. Contact the support team of the IP camera company and explain the issue to them. Ask for a replacement. Some companies support a refund or exchange within 30 days from the purchasing date.


If your IP camera can not connect to WiFi frequently, why not invest in a new one? Reolink has recently rolled out its latest 4K dual-band WiFi security camera, the Argus 3 Ultra. The 4K wireless camera operates on two frequencies (2.4GHz and 5GHz), allowing for better network optimization. The camera will experience less interference and congestion. If you prefer faster speed, you can choose the 5GHz band. But the 2.4 GHz band has a more extended range. Dual-band WiFi also allows for the efficient distribution of devices between the two bands, ensuring every connected device has a stable Internet connection.


To connect your IP camera to WiFi, first, power on the camera and ensure it's in setup mode. Then, access the camera's settings via the app or web interface, select the WiFi network, and enter the network credentials. Finally, follow the on-screen instructions to complete the connection process. The setup process can differ for each camera model, so it's essential to fllow the manufacturer's instructions when connecting your IP camera to WiFi.


There could be several reasons why your IP camera isn't connecting to WiFi. Common issues include incorrect WiFi router placement and WiFi settings, signal interference, outdated firmware, compatibility problems, etc.


Yes, you can typically connect an IP camera directly to a WiFi router. WiFi IP cameras are designed to connect wirelessly to WiFi networks. These wireless cameras allow you to link them directly to your router for remote access and monitoring over the network.


Troubleshooting issues with an IP camera's WiFi connectivity can be a multifaceted process. By following manufacturer instructions, considering network settings, and exploring troubleshooting steps, resolving the problem that IP camera not connecting to WiFi becomes more manageable. Remember, a stable WiFi connection is key to ensuring your IP camera functions seamlessly for reliable surveillance. Did you ever encounter a situation like this? How did you solve it?
