I have one of the new indoor cams, and while I am generally happy with it, I constantly get the message in the video that a weak signal is causing video issues. My camera is approximately 2 inches from my wifi, so a weak signal is unlikely. My Ring Doorbell and Ring spotlight cam, approximately 30ft away, work just fine. Any ideas?

Signal is too strong and the camera cannot attenuate it enough

I had the same problem. Moved it across the room and it's been perfect since

Thanks everyone--I guess I was thrown off by the phrase "Weak signal"

Go with a Dua or Tri-Band Mesh Wi-Fi Router. They just work better. (google, d-link, linksys, etc)

Buy PoE cameras & 4 port + switch and you don't have to worry about Wireless Signal & battery.
