  @Home_Cameras The idea of resetting the camera just to change wifi becomes even more ridiculous when you have multiple cameras over a site in hard to reach places, and now you have to create a whole project plan to update them just because the SSID changes. Please fix asap! This would be the one feature that convince me to go with an alternative vendor.

This is a basic function that needs to be included. I'm surprised that is missing for so many years now...

Definitely need to be able to reset the wifi network on the App software & not have to manually reset the camera.

Press on the network name of camera, or other accessory and change connection as you would whilst in the setup process, but retaining all other settings/preferences

We need this. I'd forgotten the pain of this, and am today changing fibre broadband supplier and router. Takes forever, resets settings,and loses smart actions. I have 7 tapo devices, mostly in awkward locations too. Just let us change network in the app, with option to do it for all devices or individually. Honestly this is a massive downside to your products.

The cameras are usually mounted or installed in high up places that are not easy to access. For whatever reason, over time, it is normal to change one's Wi-Fi SSID, due to there being a new router or new settings or privacy, etc.. That does not mean one should have to rest the Tapo device to change the Wi-Fi network. Every other modern device allows the user to connect to a new Wi-Fi SSID via the software or app or UI. Please enable this URGENTLY!!

  @Solla-topee It's been 4 months now, do you have any positive news or updates? Do you listen to your community and try to make their experiences using your products a happy and postive one? You very well know that if 10 people are coming onto this forum and complaining about this issue, there might be about 100,000 or 1,000,000 people (I might be conservative) out there in the world who are facing the same issues and need the same feature request implemented to make their lives easier - not everyone is going to be able to find the TP-Link forum, create an account, and vote or comment or log a feature request.

Based on the usage scenarios the fix or solution the community is asking for will benefit every single TP-Link TAPO user out there.
