Hi all, I’ve been diving into the world of Wyze cameras lately and wanted to share some of my experiences and tips for anyone else exploring this space. 
First off, I’ve been absolutely impressed with how Wyze cameras integrate with other smart home devices. I’ve successfully set up my Wyze cameras to trigger alerts on my Echo Show, which has been a game-changer for monitoring my home while I’m away. It’s such a seamless integration, and I love how it enhances my overall security setup. 
However, I did run into a bit of a snag recently. After upgrading my Wyze camera firmware to the latest version, I noticed some instability in the network connection. The video feed would frequently drop, and I’d get that pesky “Network is not stable” message. After some troubleshooting, I realized that the new firmware wasn’t playing nicely with my 5G Wi-Fi network. Turns out, Wyze cameras are still happier on the 2.4GHz band. I adjusted my router settings to prioritize 2.4GHz for my cameras, and the issue smoothed out nicely. 
Another thing I’ve been experimenting with is setting up automated alerts based on motion detection. I’ve found that using a combination of Wyze cameras andIFTTT allows me to automate everything from sending push notifications to adjusting my home’s lighting when motion is detected. It’s been a fun way to tweak my setup and make my home even smarter. 
On the topic of automation, I’d love to hear from others about their experiences with integrating Wyze cameras into broader home automation systems. Have you found any particularly effective rules or workflows? I’m always looking for new ways to optimize my setup. 
Lastly, I’m curious about everyone’s thoughts on Wyze’s future product line. With the discontinuation of some battery-powered models, I’m wondering if others are exploring alternatives or if there’s hope for future Wyze products that offer more flexibility in connectivity options. 
Overall, I’m really enjoying the Wyze ecosystem, and I’m excited to see how it continues to evolve. If anyone has tips, tricks, or experiences to share, I’d love to hear them! Thanks for reading, and happy automating!
