ADC-V723 alarm.com webcams won't stay connected to my Orbi RBR850
I have a series of ADC-V723 cameras. They'll connect to the Orbi network, but then drop off frequently and intermediately come back on - finally just staying off. I've turned off 20/40 MHz co-exi...

Andrew, I have the RB750...but own 4 of the exact same model alarm.com cameras. I also experienced this issue, almost to the letter. Changed all of the settings you did...multiple times. Disconnected, factory reset, whisky, repeat. I finally had to add my old Apple Airport Extreme to the ethernet port in the back of one of the Orbi devices to create a secondary wifi network *only* for the camera.
This makes me rather aggravated. The Orbi system would be perfect if it wasn't for this problem.
I am having a similar issue with an iHome smart/wifi plug. Although the plug has only faltered on me twice in about a month. The alarm.com cameras have countless drops per camera, per hour.

--Same story here. Almost word for word the same problems, same solutions attempted, same outcomes. Any suggestions on the best 'additional' router setup for my already expensive Orbi setup for all of my frequently dropping, reconnecting Vivotek Alarm cams and smart wemo switches would be appreciated.

I don't have any problems with all my wemos. I did turn off 20/40Mhz co-existence in advanced wifi settings though. All wemos (and I have a lot) work fine. I assume all your firmware is up to date. Most of my wemos are gen 2 though. I don't know of any other solution for the cameras beyond the extender one I wrote about. I will say it works just fine. Maybe you can get away with just one of them?
