OOSSXX Wireless Security System Wi-Fi Extender,Every Extender can Support 4 pcs Wireless Camera.

I am including my complete review for this OOSSXX Wi-Fi extender and the full OOSSXX HD Camera System which i also purchased because I needed this extender to make the other system work.Overall I am happy with the OOSSXX HD Wireless 960P Video System but it would take 3-4 hours to get it to reliability function in my house; if you did not make any mistakes, have poor wireless signals or need to order parts (I had all those things and it tool me much longer). It could be considered very easy to install the system if all the cameras were separated from the NVR by a single interior wall and <30ft away. The initial set-up with everything in the same room was really "Plug & Play". I must complement OOSSXX for a much better than normal instruction manual and very good YouTube videos on many aspects of the installation. They were KEY in getting the system to work well for the final camera locations.Once I moved the cameras to their permanent locations the signals were constantly dropping out on 3 of the 4 cameras. The front porch camera only connected ~1/2 the time. It is 28ft from the NVR and the signal must go through an interior wall and diagonally through a brick exterior wall sheathed with 1/2" OSB (11-12" thick). Even when I used the Repeater function from the nearest camera to the porch it still dropped out several times an hour even though it was only 16 ft. away but still diagonally through the brick wall. You can tell when there are connection problems by looking at the time field for each camera. A bad connection will not be synced with the others.I solved the problem by using the OOSSXX IPC Router Extender (reasonably priced at $20 at Amazon) placed in a central location and separated from the NVR by a single interior wall and 16 ft. away. The IPC Router Extender is only 6 ft. from the porch camera and the signal goes perpendicularly through the brick wall. The worst thing was that I had to un-install the cameras from the exterior locations and place them in the same room as the IPC Router in order to match the IP codes of each of the cameras to the Router. The instructions and VIDEOS were very good on this fairly complex task.On the other exterior camera I had drill through the brick wall (12.5" thick) and use the supplied antenna extension so that the signal only had to go through one interior wall to reach the IPC Router which is ~ 15 ft away. The final camera is 30 ft away from the IPC router extender and goes through one interior wall with a signal strength of ~50-52 (3 of 4 bar). I also tried multiple channel selections to determine which one provided the highest signal strength. The videos and the instructions on setting up the IPC Router Extender were very important in getting everything to work.Once I finalized on this arrangement; I have not had any dropouts in the signal (1 month use). The wireless capability of this network is probably equal to a router from 10 years ago; but that is to be expected for what we are paying for the system. (Just the wireless router for my home network costs as much as this whole system.)In daylight or a well lit room the resolution of the 960p cameras is great. In low light and under infrared conditions the static items (not moving) are very clear but it is difficult to see facial features in detail unless the person stops moving or is close to the camera.Setting up the Video Detection recording does take some experimentation to get it to work without false alarms(recordings). My suggestion is to limit the detection area to the specific areas of interest; then adjust the Sensitivity. Don't include trees or bushes or blowing wind will trip the recording function. The infrared mode does seem capture "fairies", "ghost" or dust darting around the scene; but not all the time. That is another reason to limit the detection area and the sensitivity; but sometimes they are nearly constant. There are lots of forum discussions on what is the cause but nothing definitive. I just ignore them.I am continuously recording one camera and the other 3 on motion trips. After 1 month, the 1TB drive is 1/3 full.The IP Pro3 phone app works great! Just don't use a password with a special character for your account. The app will not work if you do. The E-see.com web access would only work for me using the NVR Cloud ID and not my account ID; no big deal for me since I use the phone app to remotely view the video.

Works well. Needs much better documentation. Doing searching on Google I was able to figure it out.I live in an 1800 sq foot CBS house and the recorder is in the opposite side of my house so this was needed for four of the cameras.Was able to add two cameras using the OOSSXX GUI but wouldn't let me add the other two. So I used the alt method of connecting a camera using ethernet and was able to add the other two. But then there was a conflict in the OOSSXX camera admin. After deleting these two cameras in the admin everything started working.As I put this in my bedroom and connected it to an ethernet hub (my house is wired with ethernet cable) I have there all my cameras now have a strong WiFI signal. Put black electrical tape over all the lights so as they are really bright and it is in my bedroom.

I have a 4 camera setup. One camera was far from the NVR and the signal was weak. I also wanted to move my NVR into an area where it could not be seen, that would also cause the signal for the cameras at the farther end of the home to have a reduced signal. The OOSSXX wireless cameras each have a built in repeater function, that can be used to repeat the signal from a farther camera to one closer to the NVR. However, one camera was still too far from the other cameras to use the repeater function. OOSSXX tech support recommended the Wi-fi extender to solve my problem.Since my cameras were already installed I went to each camera and connected the Wi-Fi extender into the ethernet port of each camera, using an ethernet cable (the Wi-fi extender also has to be plugged into power so an extension cord with multiple outlets was used). I pressed the "reset/match" button on the Wi-Fi extender for 3 seconds and waited 2-3 minutes and a voice prompt indicated the camera had been matched. I did the same for the 3 remaining cameras. However, you really only need to do this for the camera(s) that need a signal boost.I then connected the Wi-Fi extender to the NVR using the Ethernet cable (and plugged the Wi-Fi extender to power). I followed the instructions on the NVR interface to match the cameras and the Wi-fi extender. This was a quick process.I was also able to use the Repeater function to repeat a second camera, with a low signal, through one of the cameras that was using the Wi-fi extender for signal boosting, and it now has a strong signal. I was also able to place my NVR in a more hidden area of the room so it could not be easily seen from outside the home through a window. In some other reviews users have said that the Wi-fi extender only supports 2 cameras. However, two cameras directly connect to the Wi-fi extender but then these two cameras can then repeat two cameras. Thus a total of 4 cameras are supported. My two story home is about 80 feet long and 40 feet wide with a metal roof and cameras mounted on both levels. Even with this setup I really only needed to boost the signal of two cameras.

Total garbage. Instructions are less than worthless. Do not buy unless you like to throw away 8nhius of your day.

Unfortunately I’ve not been able to make it work for the camera(s) that I need it for due to signal not found on two out of eight purchased as a set. It will require me to move cameras around in order (hopefully) make it compatible for the signal issue.
