Network Cable Connected - Still Not Working Lite4
This is the replacement camera sent to me. At the location that I was having pretty much the same issues from the other camera being replaced. Thinking maybe it was just too far out from the Wi-Fi extender, I ran a network cable to this camera, did a factory reset before connecting the cable. This is the same result, it's almost like it's still connected to the Wi-Fi.
I used a different brand of camera, out of respect for you guys I won't mention it here, and connected it at the very same location with the very same network cable, and it worked flawlessly, producing over 4K resolution consistently.
I have another Lite4, as shown in the picture across the yard, that is not connected with the network cable, shows 100% internet connection, and is doing the exact same thing as this camera.
I have a third lite 4, just out of view to the left of this pictures screenshot, closer to the extender, and it works flawlessly! I'm pretty much at a loss for nailing down what the problem is, other than these cameras are defective and inconsistent at longer ranges, where other brand cameras work effectively.
As I said in a previous post, I'll be moving these cameras to storage, it's past my return time at Amazon, and obviously a replacement isn't going to work. I'll put another brand camera at those two locations that are more consistent.
With all that said, other than support lacking a lot of times, for the cost of these cameras, the things that they do well, is good enough to keep them! I have 10 other cameras from this company, that work pretty consistently as far as recording constantly. They have huge sensitivity issues, and the human detection, and package detection functions do not work as advertised.
I will keep them and the three cloud plans I have for the other 10, until they go out completely and then I'll replace them with the little more expensive competitor brand. Unless of course Blurams makes huge strides for the better regarding support and software acting as advertised!

Guess what? Firstly don't see anyone responding to anything in this forum! Sad! And the third lite4 that I have, is now doing what the other two were doing. Same pattern now I figured out, during the day they are constantly going offline, and around 7:00 p.m. at night till around 6:30 a.m. in the morning they are working almost flawlessly. Not that I expect support to remedy this or even comment, but anyone else reads this let me know if you are experiencing the same thing with these lite4 cameras.
