  • Yeah, it’s weird. But there’s a lot of things that could affect these devices. Ours is Ethernet but only to our mesh point in the middle of our place so it’s not too far from either camera.

    I wonder if it’s choking on the 4 devices. Never had that many connected. I do want to add more some time, but likely only one or two more cameras.


  • My Eufy is super reliable. I have the older doorbell and the newer basestation which I upgraded from the last generation. Is your base sation not getting a good connection? Ours is 1.5 floors up and maybe 30 feet away from the doorbell. The walls are all interior but most of what’s between the doorbell and base is stairwell. We have a security camera farther away and outside an exterior brick wall that also works reliably.

    As far as the Eufy app and doorbell and camera we have, they work really well. We don’t have any other addons like the screen.

    I have my mine integrated with home assistant but the integration unofficial and super hacky.

    Its nice because we can have a shot from the camera pop up on our TV and smart screens (hacked echo shows running view assist) but setting that up in a way that was reliable was NOT intuitive.

    I purchased this setup for the same reasons, all local.
