ERROR CODE 20004-Wire-free doorbell will not connect

Jump to solution

I have this same issue, have tried everything that has been offered.  My wireless connection is 3 bars on my doorbell, back door camera works fine.  2.4 ghz  router.  I think error code 20004 is a death code, seems like they should last longer than a month or so.  I wouldn't recommend ever buying one of these.

Please follow the steps below to see if it fixes the issue:

Hi John. My device info:   device id# SOS 7036E3NG5.    Model DB 1000X.  SND6236E00BA.   The device worked so well for about a month. Then just quit.   It connects to the chime just fine. But not to the internet.  Have tried everything over and over again.

I replied to the email I received. Hopefully you received it.  I do have a new modem and router from my provider.  The router is 2.4 ghz,  the doorbell excepted it fine for a couple of weeks then quit,

You name it, we have tried it.  Resetting, deleting and reinstalling, turning the modem and router off, and turning them both back on. Not to mention starting from scratch.  It worked just fine and just quit, so I am sure it is faulty.  We had some harsh cold and windy weather, maybe that did something to the doorbell.  I am trying it again today (reinstalling everything but I know it is useless) the good news is I was able to switch my subscription to the back door camera, which works flawlessly.
