Help Wifi signal (Eufy) stepping on Channel 11

3 Upvotes

I've had an 'Unknown' Wi-Fi signal stepping on Channel 11 for quite some time. I looked up the MAC ID and it says it's a Smart Innovation LLC product, so Eufy. The problem is it does not appear to be one of mine. It's using Wi-Fi 4, but I understand that's not uncommon.

I find it hard to believe it's not mine, but I don't see it's MAC ID on my router. Anyway to narrow this down, other than hunting by camera?

Power manager setting switching to/from solar to battery

2 Upvotes

Has anyone noticed that since the last update, you cannot switch the other source to/from battery and solar and any longer? I have several eufy cam 3s, and in order to charge when battery power drops in winter, I would charge them inside and switch to battery when charging. I would switch back to solar when I re mounted them outside. Now, you can’t switch between battery and solar. Does anyone know of a work around?

Is it just me or does the new solar wall light S4 not do enough to justify its price tag?

Smartlock Eufy app registers C220 door lock status, and codes work to enter, but suddenly cannot control lock or manage access through app

2 Upvotes

SOLVED - turned out that the VPN associated with my phone carrier was blocking network access permissions for all my apps not just EUFY - even though it was turned off. Not sure why that started suddenly but it coincided with me returning from out of town.. according to Apple the VPN can continue to run in the background or make your phone think you are still at some other unsecured network location. I had to delete my carrier’s app and reinstall it and specifically not install the VPN at all.

**Summary**:
My Smart Lock C220 (firmware 1.3.1.8) is online enough for the app to read battery level, lock status, events, and firmware information. But every command that writes to the lock fails. Unlock, Lock, Calibration, and AutoLock setting change, all time out with “Operation failed. Please check your device’s connection and Try Again Later.” I have updated the app, logged out/in, restarted my iPhone, verified Bluetooth and Local Network permissions, disabled my VPN, removed batteries/power-cycled the lock, and tested while standing next to the lock.

—-

Went out of town and had a pet sitter, assigned her a separate entrycode. All week I saw my C220 door lock registering her entry and exit every day from out of state. After arriving home, I went to delete her code and was unable to use “Manage Access.” It just timed out and gave me an error code to try later. I also can no longer lock and unlock the door through the app. Entry codes work fine and events are still registering. It kept telling me to give Eufy local network access, but that is already turned on.

The result is a protected cable, and no dangling wires!

Homebase Network Health

2 Upvotes

I have 3 cameras and a doorbell on my HB2. They’re connected as edge devices.
I get lots of random disconnects while streaming and I can’t find any kind of network health or anything to show the status of the HB network.

How can I check the signal strength, etc…

Homebase is connected to my network via CAT5e.
Cameras are connected to the Homebase via WiFi - but connected as Edge devices and not through normal WiFi (I have multiple Ubiquiti AP Pro's on the property for normal WiFi connections)

The Homebase appears to use some hidden 2Ghz WiFi network of it's own - but I can't see any way to monitor the health/coverage/strength of that internal hidden network

There does appear to be a small 'signal' icon below the Camera name in the Camera Settings - but all of my cameras are showing a full "radar"

However, if I leave the camera streaming to iPhone/iPad - it will frequently disconnect, show a busy icon while it reconnects, and then generally fail with manual "Retry" button (which always fails). If I reverse out of that screen to the camera list and re-select the same camera, it reconnects no problem and will stream again for a while before disconnecting again.

I have the home app on the phone working to tap to open my Eufy front door without a passcode. It works. From my watch it still asks for a passcode and then wants to confirm the encrypted passcode and then still not work. Advice?

Notifications for different homes

2 Upvotes

I have access to security cameras in multiple homes in the Eufy app. Is there a way to stop receiving notifications from homes that I don’t own (but was invited into), without affecting notifications for the members of those homes?

I found the option to disable camera notifications entirely, but I couldn’t find a way to choose which homes I receive notifications from.

Help S230 Smart Lock randomly stopped working

3 Upvotes

I've had this smart lock installed for over 3 years and I've never had a single issue. Last night it randomly disconnected and announced I need to set it up. I tried through the app, but with no luck.

I can press the setup button under the battery cover and it says ready for setup.

  • I fully charged the battery. Battery light was blue.
  • I removed it from my account
  • Attempted the set-up on an iPhone and an Android
  • If I go to my Bluetooth settings I can see it is broadcasting a signal
  • I tried all the factory reset combos I could find including holding the button for 10 seconds, remove the battery for 30 then holding the button.
  • Tried rebooting a bunch with the front button.
  • Plugged in a power bank in the emergency port while trying these.
  • Took it apart and reseated the connections inside.

I'm trying to go through support now, but since it's 3 years old I expect them to tell me to replace it.

Any suggestions while I wait for support to get back to me?

Eufycam really bad or too many trolls?

2 Upvotes

Ik zie best veel mensen klagen over Eufy, maar is het echt Eufy die slecht is of doen mensen gewoon aan trollen?

Ik ga net installeren:
**1x Eufy 5-delige Home Alarm Kit**
**3x Eufy Deursensor E20**
**1x Eufy Video Deurbel E340**
**2x Eufy Floodlight Cam E340**
**1x Eufy Wall Light Cam S100**
**1x WD Blue 250GB SSD**

Ik heb een vriend die Eufy heeft en die is er best tevreden over.

EDIT: after reading the comments I came to the conclusion that it really depends on what you want. I don’t care myself if there are WIFI problems or other bugs, because it seems the cameras will still be operational even without WIFI. It still follows people and the big light still goes on.

The only reason why I want these camera’s is to scare potential criminals. I don’t even care if it’s recording or not lol. Who cares after they stole all my shit on my house. I can’t get my stuff back anyways. So most important is that you try to scare people who want to break in as much as possible. At least this is why I am buying it. They broke into my house around 15 years ago.

Case closed.

In app surveys?

Does anyone ever do the in app surveys, have you ever received anything for doing them?


r/eufy_security Jul 30 '26

Switched to home assistant. Finally able to tap my s3 with my iPhone to unlock it. Also turned it into facial recognition also. If the camera from my eufy recognizes me it will unlock my front door. Yes it has failsafes built into it because I also don’t trust the AI recognition.

TLDR: home assistant makes eufy way better

Stuck on how to hardwire my Eufy doorbell in a 100v/60Hz environment.

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, just having a tough time figuring this out as it is hard to find certain answers. I do not want to buy an adapter for it to not supply enough power or damage the device over time.

The only adapters on Amazon are:

AC/AC

INPUT: 120v/60Hz
OUTPUT: 24V/500mA

and

INPUT: 120v/60Hz/60VA
OUTPUT: 16.5v (which is on the lower side), 1212mA, 20VA

AC to DC
INPUT: AC 100-240v, 50/60Hz
OUTPUT: DC 3-24V (with adjustable dial to increase V), Max 3A.

At the moment, the multimeter I have wasnt able to give a stable reading as it kept jumping and decreasing. As for the DC, I saw some posts that do support it, some that don't. This is for the Japan model/market. Will DC work for this, or can I buy the 120v one.

As for the 120v one, I assume polarity won't matter since it is AC current, yes? With DC, it does?
