I have a Tapo H200 hub along with 2 Tapo C425 cameras and 2 Tapo C500 cameras. Previously, my cameras were operating normally on my home WiFi. Yesterday, I connected the H200 hub to my network and attempted to integrate my cameras through its homebase.

I tried two different methods:

1. New Device Setup: I removed one of the Tapo C425 cameras from my setup and then selected the "set up a new device" option on the H200 hub. However, the hub did not list the Tapo C425 as an available device.

2. Connect Existing Devices: I re-added the Tapo C425 camera to the Tapo app so that it was again connected to the home WiFi (i.e., outside the H200 hub configuration). Then, within the H200 hub interface, I used the "connect existing devices" feature. The devices connected succesfully, I enabled both hub storage (using the hub’s MicroSD) and the WiFi backup option on all four cameras. While the hub storage function operates correctly, it appears that enabling WiFi backup did not switch the cameras to the hub’s dedicated network—they remain connected to the home WiFi.

My Questions: - Did I make any mistakes in my setup process? - How can I force the cameras to use the hub’s own network for WiFi backup instead of remaining on the home WiFi network? I thought that could help to minimize any impact in my home wifi.

Tapo H200 hub is hardware V1 and Firmware 1.5.1

Tapo C500 cameras are Hardware version 2.0 and Firmware version 1.1.2

Tapo C425  cameras are Hardware version 1.2 and Firmware version 1.2.25
