    Have to restart Indoor Cameras constantly to be able to view

    I have three Indoor SE Camera's that I've had for a few months. Previously they worked great. Viewing recorded events was a little slow sometimes because my previous internet provider had pretty bad upload/Download speeds. So to remedy this, I decided to switch internet providers. The speed I have now is 3x faster than my previous provider. I got all the cameras swapped over to my new WIFI router. All the connections say the signal strength is great. My router software says the connection is great to all three cameras but now anytime I try to pull up the Live feed of any camera on my Roku app or Roku Tvs....9 times out of 10 they will not connect. They are still recording events and sending notifications properly but the only way to pull up the live feed is resetting the camera. I reset and it instantly works....but then if you swap to a different camera....they will not connect again. This is beyond frustrating. Has anyone else had this happen or know what might be going on? I have uninstalled/reinstalled smart home app, made sure its fully up to date, made sure all cameras have the latest firmware. Read all the support documentation. Pretty much at a loss.

    Just logged out of the Smart Home account, and think it might have been hacked.

    I feel like my cameras are hacked!!! I AM CONSTANTLY getting signed out of my account, they are always saying there's people in a room and my dogs start barking insanely at that moment....idk the cameras pick up strange sounds of booms and bangs etc.....maybe too many spooky stories for this girl! But my cameras are also ALWAYS going offline at the most inconvenience times!! Only specific ones....I am beyond creeped out! Can someone control what I see and don't see on my camera?

    Roku interior cameras sd card problem

    I have micro sd cards in my Roku interior cameras and after few days or weeks the Roku camera will say sd card not available or missing. I’d have to take them out and reformat them and put them in again. Tried two different sd card brands, still having this issue. Anyone else have this problem or solution? Thanks.

    Yes I keep getting the “operation failed” as well. I’ve tried resetting the chime and delete the device from the app and redoing everything. Idk if it’s my phone that’s the issue or the app and what to try next.

    Carousel causes Connectivity Issues to Roku Cameras

    Is there any update to get rid of the camaera carousel? Ever since the new, annoyong feature was added, the cameras are not reiable. Just let us opt out of the carousel. If one camera is having connectivity issues, carousel messes up connectivity to the other cameras. IF WE CAN'T TURN IT OFF, AT LEAST FIX THE BUGS!

    Outdoor Camera battery drain too fast

    The Outdoor Camera Se is not holding a charge. I've updated the firmware and followed suggestions from the community forum. We've only had our camera for 1-2 months. From the very beginning of buying and setting the camera up, after charging for more than 4 hours when I set it up, the battery drains quickly to about 90% then a day or two later it holds at around 57% for about a week and slowly drains as it should. We've tried all suggestions.
