Record every moment, even without Wi-Fi

A 15-second answer from Qyvea Limited, Nairobi. Watch it here, read the short summary below, or message us for advice.

The short answer

CCTV that records to a hard drive keeps working when the Wi-Fi drops. Cameras write footage to the recorder, so recording does not depend on the internet, and you can review it later or watch live when the connection returns.

Key points

  • Recording does not depend on Wi-Fi
  • Footage stays on the recorder's hard drive
  • Watch live again when the internet returns

Questions this video answers

Does CCTV stop recording if the Wi-Fi fails?

Not if it records to an NVR or DVR hard drive. Only remote viewing needs the internet.

What about power cuts?

Add a UPS or solar backup so cameras and recorder keep running.
