Frequently Asked Questions

What is the point of a WiFi Camera?

Great question! With a WiFi camera, you don't need to manually swap out the SD card to process pictures. All can be done through the app. It's especially useful if the camera is mounted somewhere that's hard to reach, or when you have multiple cameras within the 50ft radius.

Can the WiFi camera connect to the home internet?

No. Instead, your mobile phone connects to the camera's WiFi and bluetooth, which is why you have to be 50ft within the camera.

Does it support external power sources?

Yes, both the RANGER cell cam and the GUARDIAN WiFi cam support external power sources such as a solar panel.
