Can the C402 be connected to a hub instead of directly to WiFi? Or is the only option to connect to WiFi?

  @cwild1014,

The C402 is actually one of our Wi-Fi cameras and was not designed with the hub connection as its main connection method.

  @cwild1014,

It is still on its way and is undergoing beta testing at this point - we should be able to expect the H500 in the coming months. We will have more information about its release soon!
