Why is my 4K Spotlight Wi-Fi camera not connecting to the Lorex
App?
The 4K Spotlight Wi-Fi camera can be onboarded on a 2.4GHz or 5GHz Wi-Fi network.
*5GHz networks may have limitations in Canada.
Due to Industry Canada (IC) regulations; 3 of the 4 bands need to be disabled, as a
result you may experience connectivity issues on the 5GHz frequency.
Where do I place my 4K Spotlight Wi-Fi camera?
Place the camera close to your Wi-Fi router as possible.
Reduce the number of obstructive materials between the camera and the router or
access point.

monitors can cause signal interference. It is recommended to install the camera as
far away from these devices as possible.

Distance: Optimal accuracy for objects within 5ft to 50ft (1.5-15m).
