If you are having the frustrating problem with your Laview Light Bulb Camera not turning on or off, you are not alone. This glitch occurs for other users as well, but it can usually be fixed with a simple few troubleshooting steps.

Let's check into common causes and their solutions:

  1. Problems with Power Supply

An incorrect power source or one doing less work is the very common reason why Laview light bulb camera does not turn on. Use another lightbulb to ensure that the socket and points to which you inserted your camera are indeed working. Also ensure that the light switch controlling the socket is switched ON. It might be a loose connection or a power interruption that is making your camera flicker and go dim or fail to stay on.

  1. App or Firmware-Related Issues

Sometimes, the app just couldn't be accurate about the status of your camera, even when the camera hits ON. A common issue with Laview cameras. Uninstalling-app restart-installing the Laview app should fix the matter. However, if the problem with the laview camera continues, a factory reset of the camera might work in returning everything into right condition.

  1. Connectivity issues during setup

Improper or failed setup of the device can put it in a frozen state of operation. During the LaView camera WiFi setup, if the IP camera connects to a 2.4GHz WiFi network as against a 5GHz, it is not going to work properly. Failed initial pairing or intermittent interruption during it may seem like the camera is not turning on.

  1. Inactivity and Firmware Upgrades

From time to time, those cases of inactivity or pending Laview camera firmware updates may keep the camera from working. Ensure you update its firmware via the Laview app and check if there is any available version. Most of the time, a so-called "dead" camera can be brought back to life just by restart and re-installation.

Concluding remarks

This is an irritating time when your Laview Light Bulb Camera refuses to switch on or off, but breaking down the power, connection, or app-related issues will get you started toward a solution.
