Model: Tapo C720   Tapo D230S1  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.2

Both the C720 Floodlight Camera and the D230 Doorbell Camera work fine from my home, and I can access and operate them with no problems with the Tapo App on my mobile phone.  They are all connect via Wi-Fi and the signal is strong.

 

However, when I travel to another person's home, a club or airport and connect my phone to their Wi-Fi to view camera footage at my home, it does not work and the cameras will go offline.  Connecting through Mobile Data away from home does the same thing: the Tapo devices go offline.  When I arrive back at my house, the C720 is showing an amber LED.  I have to reboot the cameras to get them to work again.

 

Why are these cameras going offline when away from my home?

Hello, Any update to this please? I will be travelling away from my home tomorrow to a another town quite some distance away and will be there all day. While there, I will connect to a friend's Wi-Fi network and also try Mobile Data to monitor the cameras at my home.
