Model: Tapo C225   Tapo C200   TC70  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I've got six tapo cameras of varying models.  Up until about a month ago, I could watch them (from my Pixel Tablet) fine.. They'd time out once, then after I hit continue, all as good... but now I can't, they just keep timing out.. It's so painfull..

Hi,
You can refer to the instructions below to troubleshoot and know why you see a "Continue" prompt.
Why can't I view the live stream of the Tapo camera continuously?
Best Regards

  @Solla-topee  Already read that.. They're all on the same network and my (wifi only) tablet is also on the same Wifi Network.  This should be a user toggle, absolutely no reason for this to happen..

Hi,
When both the camera and tablet are connected to the internet, the tablet may manage the camera through the TP-Link cloud server instead of the local connection, even if they are on the same Wi-Fi network. 
You can try restarting the camera, force close the Tapo app on your tablet, and then check if you can continue to view the camera when the tablet and camera are connected to the same Wi-Fi.
Best Regards
