Indoor security cameras buffering and connection issues

Jump to solution

I have a pair of indoor security se cameras and they've been wonderful until yesterday. Suddenly, the cameras won't connect despite having strong wifi connections, don't record events as well as they used to, and now say they're completely not connected and without power. I've restarted both cameras, unplugged both for 10 seconds before reconnecting, and tested their wifi signals, everything should be working as it was less than a week ago but they aren't and I can't even view a live feed of the cameras. I'm getting error code -45 but didn't find anything when I searched online.

Hi @VeeBee19,

Welcome to the Roku Community, and thanks for the additional information!

We want to get more information about the issue you have had with the Roku indoor cameras since they stopped working. Can you please provide the following information below?

  • Did we recently make any changes to your network or network provider?
  • What error message/code are you getting after trying to connect to your network? (after entering the network credentials)

We'll wait for your response.

Thanks,
John

My cameras are doing the same thing, nothing has changed other than the fact that they aren’t alerting anymore and have a hard time connecting. It’s definitely something on your end, was there an update because even the live feed screen looks different. Sometimes the app has trouble refreshing as well. What is going on?

@RokuJohnB , see what @FC75 @said.. same exact thing. This is extremely frustrating.. what am I paying for if it’s not working? I’m not getting any alerts, this needs to be fixed. Thanks.
