AB2WFHUB / AB2WFCAM – Pairing issues and Smart Home app problems

[WalterMansilla]

Hi everyone,

I’m still using an AB2WFHUB with four AB2WFCAM battery cameras and I’m trying to find out if other owners of this system are experiencing similar problems with the current Amcrest Smart Home app.

Three of my four cameras are currently working, but getting them paired again after resetting/rebooting the Hub was extremely difficult and took several days of repeated attempts.

The fourth AB2WFCAM will no longer pair at all. The camera powers on, the PIR/motion sensor works and the LEDs respond, but during pairing the green LED remains solid instead of flashing as described in Amcrest’s instructions.

I’m also having software/configuration problems. For example, when I try to set a Push Notification Schedule, the app always returns “Failed to save config.” Other functions still work normally.

The Hub is set to UTC-4 with DST disabled and shows the correct time.

Before doing any more resets, I’d like to know:

Is anyone here still using an AB2WFHUB + AB2WFCAM system successfully with the current Amcrest Smart Home app?

Has anyone experienced the same pairing or “Failed to save config” problems, and found a solution?

I’m particularly interested in knowing whether these are hardware issues or compatibility/support issues with the current Smart Home app, since the hardware itself still appears to work.

Thanks.
