TP-Link Tapo C225 2.5K Pan & Tilt

Vanuit de doos met de app, was installeren een makkie. In 5 minuten was de camera online. In de instellingen een account aangemaakt voor de koppeling met de Synology waar ik de beelden op bewaar. Het beeld is haarscherp, de app is overzichtelijk.

This device is unusable at the moment for me. The camera fails to pair during the initial setup, this was due to the IP address being received by the camera was outside the IP range of the router, hence, I had to configure the router to the IP range the camera IP is being assigned. After which, the setup completed successfully but after 2-3 minutes it gets disconnected and the Tapo App becomes unresponsive. I've tried assigning a static DHCP on the device but after 2-3 minutes it gets an APIPA IP address (169.254.XXX.XXX). I already contacted the customer support, raised the problem in the TP-Link Community and gone through documentation shared through their communication channels but no solution has been found, hence is disappointing. If the issue does not get solved soon then I will return this device. Note that I have a C200, C420 and other Tapo Devices in my network this is the only that that is having network connectivity issues.

If you're looking into building a home security network, think twice before building it with TP-Link devices due to product limitations (which is often not mentioned), inadequate customer support and documentation.

Kochten dit product om bench van nieuwe puppy ('s nachts) in de gaten te houden. Werkt prima.
