Hi,
1. Please ensure you have reset the camera successfully. You can press the reset button on the Tapo C310 for 10 seconds and check if the LED changes to blinking red quickly. If so, wait for a while until the LED flashes green and red.

2. Uninstall the Tapo app on your phone, clean caches, reinstall the Tapo app, and check if you can set up the Tapo C310 successfully.

Best Regards

Hi,

You may try to press the reset button longer to factory reset the camera. If you see the message "The device has been previously configured. please reset first" when configuring the camera, but it has a flashing red and green light, it should be the camera was reset Wi-Fi before but not factory reset.

Best Regards

HAVE JUST FIGURED IT OUT... PLEASE RESET THE DEVICE TWICE. HOLD THE FACTORY RESET BUTTON DOWN UNTILL THE LIGHT FLASHES RED AND GREEN ANE CONTINUE TO HOLD UNTILL IT FLASHES RED AND GREEN AGAIN OR UNTILL IT TALKS AND SAYS FACTORY COMPLETE. I WAS READY TO RETURN THE CAMERAS AS I EXHAUSTED EVERY OTHER OPTION INCLUDING RESETING WIFI, RE DOWNLOADING APP ETC. ALL THE BEST 👍 👌 😍

Great thank you. It worked after hours of trying. They ought to put on the instructions that when you hold the reset button, keep it held in until the camera says reset complete.
