Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Interesting! I'm always fascinated when people have such different experiences with the same products.
I have 4 total Eufy devices: the latest base station, a doorbell cam, a separate cam in my kitchen pointing at my cat's food, and the smart display. They're all connected to the base station which is hardwired to my gigabit connection. The base station is about 10 feet from the doorbell and smart display, and the kitchen cam is about 10 feet in the other direction. That standalone kitchen cam is the most reliable of my Eufy devices, and it still randomly disconnects, only works some of the time, and streams really jankily.
I wonder if I ended up with a bunch of lemons, it sure sounds like my devices are not working as intended.
Yeah, it's weird. But there's a lot of things that could affect these devices. Ours is Ethernet but only to our mesh point in the middle of our place so it's not too far from either camera.
I wonder if it's choking on the 4 devices. Never had that many connected. I do want to add more some time, but likely only one or two more cameras.
