It is really rare to find a router that doesn’t include the 2.4GHz band. So, if it’s an old or 1-band router, then it’s probably 2.4GHz. If it’s a new 2-band router, then it probably includes 2.4GHz.

Make sure your router is using WPA or WPA2 encryption, not WEP.

hi there thanks for the reply
i have confirmed it is 2.4
it looks like the router is using a WLAN connection,
i am on the claro network in punta cana
i have an ipad and an iphone
and a high speed home connectionin addiition to electricity 24/7 too
do you have any othersuggestions as to why i m timing out?
my thanks again

It sounds to me like your ISP and/or country is blocking the traffic necessary to use the Wyze cams. I would contact your ISP first to see if they can assist you. :slight_smile:

thanks for the suggestion :sunglasses:

Also, have you tried a VPN app on your phone using US based VPN servers?
