Set Up with Netvue App

Connecting Method
There are two ways of adding Vigil Camera onto Netvue App: Wireless Connection and Wired Connection.
Wireless connection
Wireless connection uses Wi-Fi to connect the camera to the App. It is the easiest way if the installation spot is close to your router and have a strong Wi-Fi signal. Please note that thick or insulated wall may weaken the signal dramatically. Before you decide to choose this connection method, check the Wi-Fi signal at your installation spot.

If the Wi-Fi signal strength is weak at your installation spot, the Ethernet cable connection might be your solution. An Ethernet cable is required for this connection method. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into Vigil Cam, and the other end into the LAN port on your router. Then follow the in-app instruction to complete the following set up process.

This step requires the skill of making an Ethernet cable. Consult with the electrician if you are not sure how to do it.
A weatherproof tube is needed for Ethernet cable to avoid leaking water into Ethernet cable port. Cut off the Ethernet cable at the length you want. Insert the cable into the weatherproof tube, and carefully attach RJ-45 connector to the cut ends. Test the cable is working before installing.

Things you need:
