- Press and hold the camera’s WPS button for 3 seconds and then press the corresponding WPS button on the router.
- If the router does not have a WPS button or if you have trouble connecting, use a standard Ethernet cable to connect the camera to the network router.
- Allow a few minutes for the camera and router to connect. When the LED is solid green, the wireless connection is complete.
- Add the device to the account by using the Alarm.com app Video Installation Wizard, or by using a web browser and entering the following web address: www.alarm.com/addcamera (you will need the customer’s user name and password if using the Alarm.com customer website or Alarm.com app).
