Roku indoor cam will not connect

I have two indoor one leg stand Roku cameras. The first one I connected a month ago when I had Cox cable as my ISP and their provided router. I now have Frontier as my ISP with an Eero wireless router. I have disabled 5g on the router. I have power cycled the router and then the Roku camera. As soon as the Roku camera is plugged in it flashes red. I press the setup button once it continues to flash red and says "Ready to connect" continues flashing red. I hold down the setup button for ten seconds. Flashing red continues and camera states "Ready to connect" every 10 seconds. I never get a blue flashing light. I attempt to connect via the Smart app on my phone - I also deleted and reinstalled Roku Smart Home - I select camera is flashing blue even though it isn't. sates cannot find a camera. I turned off all security on the Eero - power cycled it - power cycled camera - still flashing red - stating "Ready to connect" press setup button - etc - never flashes blue - can't find any cameras. The original camera is working. This is a new camera - Roku replaced my other "Broken" Roku after chatting all the above. Also tried on my home second level floor - different wireless device - different SSID - still same behavior. Any thoughts? 

Thanks,
