Setup & Installation

Set it up near the router first so you know it connects, then mount it where the Tapo app shows a good Wi-Fi signal (Device Settings > Device Info). Tapo says not to point cameras through glass, because it causes glare and infrared reflection at night.

The power adapter is not weatherproof, so keep it indoors or in a weatherproof box.
