How to reconnect your ADC522IR Indoor Camera
There are a few simple things you can do to get your ADC-522IR indoor camera back to working to protect your home. Follow the below steps to get your camera online again.
Reconnecting to WiFi:
1. Locate the WPS button on your WiFi router.
- There should be a button labeled WPS or an icon of two arrows or a lock on the router.
2. Locate the WPS button on the camera.
- On most camera models, it is labeled WPS or Reset.
- On the ADC-522IR, the button is next to the Ethernet connector on the back of the camera.
3. Hold to the WPS button for 2-3 seconds, until the LED flashes blue, to put the camera into WPS mode.
4. Press the WPS button on the router for 1-6 seconds to put your router in WPS mode.
- Typically, a light flashes on the router to tell you it's in WPS mode.
- If there is no light or there is a red blinking light, the WPS might be disabled on your router.
- You can confirm that your router is WPS enabled by checking the bottom of your router. If you see a WPS pin, your router does have WPS. You can also log into your router management tool to verify if your router is WPS enabled.
5. Wait 2 minutes to allow the camera and router to discover each other.
6. The camera LED will change from flashing blue to flashing green, to red. Wait for the LED to stay one color, blinking or static, for a few minutes before continuing.
7. Once the LED is steady, refer to the below table for troubleshooting steps based on the LED color on your camera.
