Indoor Camera-FAQ
Can the Indoor Camera be used outdoors?
The Alder Indoor Camera is suitable for temperatures between -10℃~51℃. You can use the Indoor Camera outdoors in the right weather conditions and with proper protection. However, please don’t put the camera in wet weather (rain or snow) since the camera is not waterproof.
How do I obtain full coverage of a room?
Typically, a home camera is placed in the corner of a room where it can optimize the view angle. We recommend having at least two cameras to fully cover a large space, such as a living room. To completely monitor your home, users can add cameras in every room for a full home monitoring system.
I'm on a 5GHz network. Can I still use the camera?
The Alder Indoor Camera is only compatible on a 2.4GHz band network. 5GHz networks are not supported.
All routers have a 2.4GHz band network available and most routers are dual-band, meaning they have both a 2.4GHz and 5Ghz band network. Many routers have both bands available simultaneously, meaning you can see two network names for your router. Check your Wi-Fi settings to see if you have 2 networks available. The 5GHz network name will typically end in a 5, while the 2.4GHz network might end in 2 but it may not be indicated in the name. If you need additional help, contact your internet service provider for assistance on connecting to your 2.4GHz band network.
