htjunkie Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 What does it require to get the Wyze PAN camera to show video stream over WAN? It seems to work just fine with internal network, but over WAN C4 app just spins! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAN is just a 4sight connection (which is VPN to your home). The only thing i can think of is that there is a 'publically accessible' tickbox that you can tick / untick for cameras that you may not have setup correctly.

htjunkie Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I did check "publicly accessible" in the driver for Wyze camera, any other suggestions within the camera setup itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is only used if you have a public IP for your camera Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame, would be nice to have some of the features like the contact and motion sensors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I get now is an orange light even after following the instructions fully also. I cannot even use the normal Wyzecam app etc soo be careful...especially if you go through the hassle of importing to the UK... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htjunkie Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I just got a new Wyze Pan v2 with starlight night vision, unfortunately I can't get it to flash the dafang firmware, just wanted to make sure this model (Pan v2) is not compatible? Any workaround for it? I have the original Pan camera but I'd love to have another one in the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
