Model: Tapo C460 KIT  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.8 Build 250715 Rel.66713n

Hi,

 

I have recently purchased the Tapo C460 Kit, as much as i'm happy with it i've only just noticed that i can't access my camera when i'm away from the house if i try to connect to it using my mobile data, camera shows offline.

 

I've read multiple online posts about needing to open port 554, i have a tp-link deco setup in my house which i have added a port forwarding entry for port 554 but i still can't access my c460 camera using mobile data when i'm away from my house.

 

Has anyone experienced the same issue and know how to fix it?

 

any help would be greatly apprieciated.

 

Thanks

Owen

Hey Owen,

That’s a common issue with the C460. You don’t need to open any ports — it should work through the Tapo cloud. Try rebooting your Deco and camera, make sure both firmware and app are updated, and re-add the camera if it still shows offline. That usually fixes it.

Thanks for your reply, I had already rebooted both router and camera, and it never made any difference. 

 

But I rebooted camera and this time it worked.

 

Prior to this i was on to tplink support who told me to return camera to place of purchase, as it was defective and can't be fixed.
