Hello.
My IP2M-858W wifi has the weakest signal of all of my cameras. I have two other cameras about 10' further away than my IP2M-858W. ALL 3 of these cameras are in direct line of sight to my Unifi Access point. The IP2M-858W is about 50' in direct line of sight to the AP and the other two cameras are about 60' (again direct line of site to my AP)
I'm really not asking for troubleshooting steps here, Lord knows I've been through a great deal of them from UniFi's troubleshooting steps, to Amcrest's and general. My UniFi AP gives a general reading of 68dBi reading, consistently, from the camera. The other cameras are typically in the low 50's.
So my question is whether or not this is a general characteristic Amcrest wifi capability. I have a lower end 3x PTZ Amcrest camera (IP2M-866w) with very similar reading, almost the same distance so while all of my other outdoor cams (non Amcrest) have solid, higher connection stats.
I did buy and try a higher gain antenna, which had zero effect.
