Having an error code -45

Jump to solution

Every single time we try to check the live feed on the app, or play recorded events, we see that they're offline, won't reconnect (error code -45) & have not even been recording events (despite paying the monthly subscription fee). Tell me, Roku... What the **bleep** is the point of even having cameras installed & paying for a monthly subscription if the junk don't stay connected & don't record events? Are you going to do anything to make this right? We don't need a cut & pasted response about reset instructions & it's not our wifi. So, now what???

That "solution" didn't resolve the problem. the problem is that they won't stay connected. fix the real problem. any decent company with decent products and charging monthly subscription fees would fix the actual problem instead of telling their customers to just unplug it and plug it back in. just admit that roku cameras are trash, customer service is trash and customers don't mean a mf thing to y'all.
