Model: Tapo C425 KIT  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

Is there a possibility to change the current Wlan network without re-setup the camera?

For your reference - the camera is installed in 10 meters height to observe birds. I would like to avoid climbing up again ;)

 

Unluckily, I paired the camera with my mobile hot spot Wlan. When I'm not at home, nobody else can take a lock.

Know, I would like to switch to a home network.

 

Beat Regards

When you're home, enable the hotspot to restore camera's connection, and then connect a different mobile device to the hotspot, log in Tapo app with the owner account.

 

Once it is done, you can delete the camera (long-press device card -- delete) in the Tapo app and the camera will return to the default setup state. Please note that this operation requires the camera to be online and the mobile device to be able to view and control the camera properly. Otherwise, it may result in a failed device deletion, potentially causing the device to disappear from the app with no way to recover it. In such cases, the only way to reset the camera is by using its reset button.
