Setup Issues with DoT enabled

I just want to share my experience. If you are having issues with setting up your Wyze product and you have DNS over TLS (DoT) enabled, disable the feature for the setup of your Wyze device. This solved my issue setting up my plugs (you must also disable Mobile data during setup). This also worked to install my chime for the video doorbell and solved my issue where the doorbell always showed offline but still live streamed. I was able to re-enable DoT after the setup was complete and everything continued to work. This leads me to think the bug is in the firmware and/or app in the initial setup area of the code. Most likely an HTTP instead of HTTPS call.
