C500 Issue After the Latest Update: Camera Automatically Goes into Offline Mode.
After the recent update to the version 1.1.3, the camera goes into the offline mode automatically. I have to plug in and out the power supply to bring the camera back online. I tried to reset the camera to see if the issue would resolve but it didn't have any effect.
The camera is located outside and the night temperature dips to -6C sometimes but the issue only happened after the update.

Hi,
You can refer to the link below to troubleshoot if your camera keeps going offline.
What should I do if my Tapo smart camera keeps losing connection or going Offline?
Please help confirm the following information if the problem remains.
1. Check the LED status on the camera when it shows offline on the Tapo app.
2. Please help check the Wi-Fi signal strength value on your camera's Device Settings>Device Info page.
3. How often does the issue happen?
4. Describe your network diagram. What's the model number of your router? Is the camera connected to the router's Wi-Fi directly?
Best Regards

Hi,
Please help check the model number of your router, and if you have other Wi-Fi networks, such as a hotspot Wi-Fi from your phone, you can try to reset the camera, reconfigure it to connect to the new Wi-Fi network and check if it will work fine.
