Why your Aiwit Doorbell Camera goes offline and how to fix it
Understanding why your doorbell camera goes offline and how to restore the connection.
Reasons for Doorbell Camera being offline
Being offline means the device is disconnected. There are several possible reasons:
1. The device runs out of power
Is there any light on the doorbell when you ring the bell? If no, this means no power, and you need to charge it first.
2. Wi-Fi is weak
The device may have disconnected from Wi-Fi. Please improve Wi-Fi signal and reconnect.
3. Wi-Fi is unstable
When Wi-Fi is not stable, it is likely to go offline or delay often. You can try:
- Restarting the router
- Reconnecting the Wi-Fi
It is very important that the device gets good Wi-Fi, as it is outside of the house.

Follow these steps to restore your doorbell camera's connection:
Step 1: Check power
Make sure your device still has power. If there is no power, please charge it first.
Step 2: Try ringing the doorbell

Step 3: Reset the batteries
Remove the batteries, and put them back in to see if the device will get back online.
