6/7/2023 0 Comments Eufy remote buttons explainedLooking at your local wifi network with an analyser with two home bases used would show two “hidden” networks. Each network is separate so a device can only be connected on one particular private network (thus one home base). If you add more home bases, each provides another private network and again uses the WPS configured for it to enable the wifi connection to the devices connected to it. provides a separate private 2,4 GHz wifi network and uses Wifi Protected Setup to provide the wifi network name and password for devices connected to it (the network name is seen as “hidden” by a wifi analyser tool). This private network CANNOT be extended - site the home base in a location that supplies the best signal strength of this private network to all cameras (the Eufy Security application provides a signal strength “meter” in it’s camera setup section)Įach home base “acts as” an “Access Point” i.e. The connection between the home base and camera/s is a private WiFi 2.4GHz network that utilises “Wi-Fi Protected Setup” (WPS) and thus that network name (a Wifi Analyser shows the name as hidden) and password are not provided. If you cannot connect to a home base, there could be an issue at any of these “points of failure”. Use of either access requires your login to be authenticated by the Eufy Authentication server solution (and Eufy have had issues where this service has not been available). ![]() The provided storage is 16GB eMMC with promised expansion - there are discussions in this Forum Community where people have plugged in USB storage devices and that has stopped the HomeBase 2 T8010 from working (especially when it has been reset or AC mains has been restored)Īll Eufy home bases can use either ethernet or 2.4GHz WiFi to connect to your home network and uses your home network as the “gateway” to the internet for access by the Eufy Security application on a mobile telephone or from a browser (this limited to live viewing and needs Adobe Flash Player enabled). The HomeBase 2 T8010 supports Apple HomeKit - the HomeBase “pseudo 1” T8001 doesn’t have this feature. HomeBase “pseudo 1” T8001 also has battery backup (quoted as 10 hours) if the AC mains is not available which means that camera detected events are still being stored - the HomeBase 2 T8010 doesn’t have this feature and thus events are “lost”.
