@Wayne-TP 

Hello. Camera is now working with the beta firmware provided.

  @Wayne-TP i'm having the same issue and I'm from the Netherlands with ODIDO as my ISP and using the Zyxel T-56. I've contacted TP- Link customer support and they said I should contact my ISP for this issue.

Could you also please share with me the beta firmware as well as how to install it?

I'll also send a private message of the MAC address. Thank you

  @Wayne-TP thank Wayne. Unfotunately, the points mentioned in the link doesn't solve the issue.

Similar to fellow community members that have posted here in this thread, I'm experiencing the following:

Set-up:

Modem: Zyxel T-56

2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands are split

Encryption WPA2/WPA3

No MAC Filtering or special configuration in the router

Camera: Tapo C225 V2

Additional info: I have 1xC200, 1xC420, 6xT110, 4xP110, 1xH200 connected to my home network and unfortunately only the C225 is having problems.

Issue:

1. During setup, C225 confirms "connected to WiFi"

2. Gets stuck while pairing then fails

Things I've tried:

1. When I use my phone in tether mode and try to perform the setup via that connection then it succeeds.

2. In my router, I changed the IP address range from 192.168.1.XXX to 192.168.0.XXX because the router is automatically assigning 192.168.0.10 which is outside the IP range. Now the camera setup completes, however, after 2-3 mins the camera disconnects (slowly blinking red light). Tapo App becomes also unresponsive.

3. I've added a static DHCP for the device's MAC to 192.168.0.10 and when the Camera disconnects after 2-3mins I see that the IP address is changed to 169.254.XX.XX for some reason.

Please let me know if there's anything I could try further.

I'm having the issues, speedport plus 2 from Cosmote, (latest fiber black model), only I'm not seeing any of the dchp stuff on the settings. Also how do I do the whole 1 to 0 thing?  The camera says connected to wi-fi but then it wil not pair, the router is on wpa+wpa2 so it's not wp3-only.

Thank you in Advance.

  @Wayne-TP Hi Wayne, I've successfully installed the beta firmware during 2-3 minute window using my current connection. So far it seems that the issue is now solved!

Thanks for providing this fix. I'll let you know if encounter any issues.

Hello folks,

Word for word I have the exact same issue as @lwrnzs , Odido Zyxel router and C225 camera that kind of connects to the router, but gets assigned 192.168.0.10 while the range of the router is in the .1.x range, and when I change the DHCP range the camera gets a totally different IP. I tried all the possible solutions that are already mentioned in this thread but none of them work. Could you help me please? 

kind regards

Can i please have a copy of the custom firmware and instructions on how to install it? Same situation with Cosmote router. less than 2 minutes of capture. DHCP set to 192.168.0.x

[edit] you should really push this firmware out of beta, you are getting scathing reviews on various portals due to connectivity issues.

Same issue here on my C225V2, connection drops after roughly ~60seconds and camera goes to blinking RED mode. After I unplug and plug camera back in it works and after same time connection is dropped.

I've set reserved IP address for camera MAC to 192.168.0.25, band steering disabled and 2.4G / 5G networks are separate. Connected straight to ISP router SDMC  NE6037.

I have ran out of steps to troubleshoot, would be great if tplink engineer could reach out for fix.

Thanks
