Iphone Hotspot Hack For WIFI Cameras - ft. Wyze Cam V3

  • Опубліковано 14 сер 2024
  • Today, I'll show you how to connect your WiFi cameras (Wyze Cam, Eufy indoor cam, Yi home camera, Reolink Argus or any WiFi camera that has on board micro SD card recording) to your phone's hotspot (I'm using an Iphone 11 ). I have done a video a while back showing this method but I found an easier way to do it and you don't have to re-run the setup on the cameras and your WIFI cameras will just automatically connect using the WIFI credentials that you have setup at home.

    Will this also work for a MiFi hotspot unit? This would be great for rv travelers to setup Blink Outdoor cams or similar genre of camera. That’s allowing security when you have no internet connections at your campsite.

    how to RTSP on your PC when the IP cam is on a hotspot network via your cell phone.
    note, I can't use the 192.168... address because the PC and IP cam are on different network.
    Even if I link the IP cam to a router access point, instead of directly to the cell phone, and setup port forwarding, I cannot access the IP cam using RTSP.
    Any success with this?

    I had to start doing this because my wife network kept getting compromised. What sucks is obviously you can’t remotely monitor them. Also many of these cheaper cameras with apps are Chinese and hide how to actually set them via web interface. I can help people see how to find how to connect to their own. I found three default users set beyond your Wi-Fi cams app user that were defaulted allowing any access without knowledge. Also fro server settings to remotely also copy your images from a SS. Add. Be careful with p2p cams. Disable, and do like this videos says.

    • @FromRootsToRadicals_INTP
      @FromRootsToRadicals_INTP Рік тому +1

      What I do is do new setup. Then when your on your own Wi-Fi and it asks for the Wi-Fi credentials then change it to your hotspot credentials. Then it will use that going forward. Also on many iPhone apps for up cams, if you go to the “about” or similar pages in the app and keep hitting their icon it either then turns logging on for you to get log access, or sets audio and microphone settings. They hide it under these areas. One was a long button press on their icon in the apps about page.

      The 12 seconds is the recording in the cloud... If you have the microSD card installed, the camera will record the whole motion event even before and after the motion... You can access it by selecting view playback in cameras live view.
