Reolink 4MP Super HD WiFi Security Camera Outdoor, 2.4GHz/5GHz Dual Band WiFi CCTV IP Camera, IP66 Waterproof Night Vision Surveillance Camera with Motion Detection Audio Micro SD Card Slot, RLC-410W

I have had this up on my 5Ghz wifi and it’s not really caused any problems. The wifi stays connected well and the recording os OK. Sometimes i do lose connection and the recording files might be for 5 mins, 2 mins, 10 mins, 1 min etc etc but once it’s rebooted it goes back to an hour recording. So far so good in a nutshell 🙂

For the money, this is impossible to beat. It is a rugged camera that is apparently weather proof (although the connecting cables are not) and it connects to pretty much any local or remote video recording solution using FTP.
Better yet, unlike many other subscription-only devices, Reolink offer a free basic subscription so that a single camera can record video to the cloud and this is saved for seven days – I haven’t seen any other camera (or doorbell!) vendor offering this basic but essential service for free.
Physical installation is straightforward thanks to the detailed manual and template. That said, the cable access needs a 20-22mm hole to take the quite bulky connectors – easy if you have the tools but… not if you don’t…
One quality flaw is that the supplied power supply literally fell apart in my hands. Luckily I have a box full of old power supplies so it wasn’t a chore to find a compatible unit and get it going. Someone without such a stock, though, would need to return the unit – this is a glaring quality issue that dents an otherwise flawless unit.
Installation via the supplied app is straightforward – connect with a wired connection initially, then set up the wifi connection and you’re good to go.
Performance in daylight is exemplary. At night (see pictures) it’s also very good although I do find the infrared view a bit washed out. Having said that, night-vision without infrared is good but with is even better,
The app supports motion detection with local (i.e. the app or email) notification, and a really good “motion detection” screen where you can paint out the areas that you don’t want to be notified about. In my case, and you can see this in the screenshots, this is the road at the top of the screen. Painting that area out is easy to do and disables motion detection for passing cars, horses or spacecraft in that zone.
Finally, integration options are exemplary. I have this hooked into my Home Assistant smart home system, and my Alexa video devices. With the latter, I can say “Alexa – show me front door” and the camera appears on the Amazon display.
Finally, I can’t understate what a differentiator the Reolink “basic cloud subscription” service is. To my knowledge, this is unique in that every doorbell supplier, camera vendor, etc. want to charge you a few pounds per month to upload video to the cloud. Reolink allow you to do this for free (for one! device) which is very much appreciated.
Fantastic camera, easy to set up, very well priced, great support – highly recommended.

WiFi it’s weak! But when connected to Ethernet it’s good overall picture quality it’s ok

Great camera. Easy to setup and use. Not sure if the WiFi range on camera is good or wether it’s the router range as it couldn’t detect the WiFi. We connected via a WiFi extender. Quality of picture is excellent even at night. Doesn’t pick up number plates at night due to reflection of light. Would definitely recommend it.
Motion detection is very sensitive.

Got four Reolink Cameras covering my home. Three different types of camera all as good as the next. Easy to set up, easy connection to our network, clear pictures great night vision, good recording options. I have sd cards in all cameras and also record to my PC so have backup if needed.
Add to this a first class support team and customer service and you have a Frist Class all round service and product. THANK YOU Reolink

Easy to install app and link camera via QR code, excellent picture quality and zoom.
Works with new 5G hubs.

Bought this CCTV camera as it would connect to a 5ghz signal, whereas others only connect to 2.4ghz.
Our BT 2.4ghz keeps disappearing and BT can’t explain typical,
The camera is reasonably easy to set up, having downloaded the APP, just follow the instructions sent with it. It does a bit of time register.
Once registered i tested indoors before testing outside to make sure it would pickup the 5ghz. To start with it wouldn’t but after 20 mins it found the signal so i now have a perfect video/ picture of my back garden day and night.
For the money its a great bit of kit to make sure your puppy is not trying to dig there way out of your garden and how many Badgers or foxes visit.
The audio stream is also very clear. Unfortunately this model doesn’t have 2 way audio but in our case it would nice but not essential

Finally a camera that does what it says in the description. This is the third ordered from Amazon and the first to work. Previous ones have been 2.4ghz Wi-Fi only and have constantly dropped connection to my dual band router. This camera picks up on 2.4ghz and 5ghz and the difference is palpable. Setting up was very easy via the Ethernet cable provided and once disconnected the Wi-Fi worked perfectly. The camera is very solidly built with a very good locking mechanism once you’ve decided on positioning. The paper template for drilling the holes is a real help as is the extra length of power cable, which is often an ‘extra’ from other manufacturers.
The instructions are quite brief and I am yet to be able to figure out the email alert function, but with a little perseverance and use of Google I’m sure this will be in place soon. Overall a very well priced camera given its features. I may well be buying another to cover more areas of the house.

This camera is great good quality picture.
Great night vision.

Yes really good. Have it in horse stable to keep our eye on our horse.

Originally had an issue with this camera as with the supplied firmware the web interface used Flash player for the video stream. On contacting Reolink for a fix I was sent a link for a new firmware release which uses HTML5 to stream camera. Once installed everything is now working well.
I bought these cameras to supplement a Swann system which uses the wired version of these cameras as i needed wireless cameras for areas I couldn’t get CAT5e cabling to. The camera works well and gives excellent image quality during the day, the image using IR and night vision is good although the range is a bit limited compared to the Swann NHD-818. I mentioned these were to supplement an existing Swann system (NVR7400/NHD-818), I didn’t expect them to work with the Existing system and was just going to use the web interface with recording to SD card, however they were found by Swann Viewlink and live view and recordings could be seen on the mosaic display. The cameras didn’t record to the NVR however the SD card recordings could be viewed alongside the NVR recordings, all of which was an unexpected bonus. I have also used the FTP feed which sends files to an FTP server when motion is detected and this works extremely well, viewed using MPV player. They compare well with the Swann cameras and give excellent quality video streams, 4MP is perfectly good enough for hte majoritarian of use cases.

I am really pleased with the camera. I have gone through 2 other brands before settling on ReoLink. The picture quality is very good and fully configurable in terms of bit rate and resolution. But it’s the attention to detail that so many other camera manufacturers lack that is impressive – from the supplied 4 meter power extension lead to the ability to adjust the tilt AND rotation of the camera after it’s fixed in place. It’s supplied with all needed fixings and supports IOS/Andoid, Web browser access and connection to NVR and third party desktop monitoring software. They even supply their own free desktop viewing software if you want it. So 10/10.

Its a good camera but i found difficulties to pair the camera with phone app or pc.
Q code from phone app not recognize the UID number from the camera, i tried manually to add the UID number nothing. I tried also to login with the default user name and password nothing. I had used the Ethernet cable via POE method with reolink pc software nothing again. At this stage i thought that the camera was broken. After research from the internet i had found a solution.

Solution
To check if the camera works because there is no light indicators, connect the camera only with power socket. Place the camera in a dark room to see with the IR lights switch on. If are on, your camera is ok.
Press the reset button for about 10-15 seconds to reset your camera. You will notice that the IR lights are off.
Switch off the camera from power source.
Connect the Ethernet cable to the camera and router.
Switch on the camera from power source. (Power source and Ethernet cable both must be connected with the camera)
Open the Reolink software from a pc. Automatically shows camera image.
Now your done. 🙂
This is how i fixed my problem. i hope to help you also.

Absolutely shocking I havnt had them a year and now its stopped picking up audio. Nothing but problems camera has a mind of its own. Likes to reboot its self just because. And intermittent with recording. I assumed it was my WiFi signal not being very good but just the same over a cable.

This review would have been 5 star bu for the fact that the power supply unit that came with the camera was outputting 0v thus rendering the camera useless. On contacting Reolink support and after numerous emails and messages, they have finally agreed to send out a new power supply unit to me so I can get the camera to work. Power supply unit on its way to me from China but not yet received yet. Reolink need to get their quality control right, otherwise nobody will buy their products.
Also, if mounting the WiFi camera, it it not possible to align the aerials correctly if pointing the camera at 90 degrees as they foul on the camera mount.
Having said all,this, customer service is 5* and having now received a new power supply unit, the WiFi cctv camera is now working 100%.
Would throughly recommend Reolink to family and friends without question.

found this camera easy to set up,good quality, detection a little sensitive, but overall totally satisfied;

Great camera. Super sales service and responded very quickly to a couple of queries that were answered very effectively. Simo

The mount is very fiddly to aim the camera – a simple ball-joint would have been much better.

I got the latest bt router and found my camera was rendered useless be warned you must now have 5g cameras 2.5 will not work on modern routers. This reolink cam is one off very few dual band. It connects strait out the box. And is a great item. Some say they have problems connecting to alexa, if you do simply click on Cloud and it connects itself

Compared to the victure camera it replaced, this make and model shines like a star! It’s absolute in a different league, it’s fantastic, can not fault it in the slightest! One little tip is to ensure you connect it via ethernet cable to your modem for its initial introduction to your network before you fit it to the wall via wifi, either that or buy a super long ethernet cable once it’s in situ.

Good build and picture quality
Helpful support staff resolved my tech issue

Reolink RLC-410W Cameras
The cameras are well made solid and easy to fit. They have a good system of loosening and tightening the camera angles. The Wi-Fi antennas seem to do the job if the Wi-Fi router hub or pods are not too far away. The pictures are clear and do not get blocked out by rain. The night vision is amazingly clear compared with my old cameras. I had some trouble connecting all of them but that was not the fault of the cameras but my lack of networking abilities (see below). I have not explored all the facilities of the Reolink Client App, but it is easy to understand and quite fun set up. The only critism is that they are missing covers for the ethernet plug and the reset button. I had tried to set up 4 PTZ 2.4Mhz cameras on my old Combi router but failed as they clogged up the bandwidth. By buying the Reolink cameras with 2.4 and 5MHz bands, I avoided this choking of the bandwidths. I did notice in the Reolink Client App that there is a CPU and RAM monitor. At some stage the speed of my PC was getting very slow. It was then that I noticed that the RAM box had gone red and was showing 85% use. I had 8 GB in my PC but this was already used up by the cameras. I then bought additional RAM and now have 32 GB of RAM. Even now with all my programmes running it uses 30% of the 32GB RAM. This is still and amazing amount but everything now works fine. If you want to run multiple modern cameras on your PC, I highly recommend you buy some extra RAM.
I was a complete novice in the networking field. I made some basic mistakes which could have been avoided if I had read all the comments I read later when I had trouble getting my camera system to work. All in all, it took me 3 months on and off to set it up as I wanted it. This includes off course drilling hole and fitting the cameras, and in some cases, replacing them again. I have 4 cameras attached to the outside of my house (4500m2). I wanted them connected to my PC and iPad. My PC has a dedicated drive for the camera recordings only.
I bought one of the Reolink cameras to start with after a disappointing experience with 4 Smart PTZ Dome cameras with only 2.4 bandwidth. The Smart Cameras work OK if you just have one but the moment you try to have more than one it starts clogging up your Wi-Fi Bandwidth. I therefore thought I better buy a camera with 2.4 and 5 MHz bandwidth. That’s when I hit upon the Reolink dual band cameras. The setup was relatively easy in ethernet cable connected mode. I decided to buy another 3 Reolink cameras. Then I found that as soon as I disconnected the cameras from the ethernet cable, the cameras did not register on the Reolink Client “Device Basic Information” panel where you can see which cameras are connected and registered. I started to realise rightly or wrongly that my old ISP router, which is quite good could not connect to the Wi-Fi cameras that were further away. After trying and failing with some other routers to extend the signals I bought Google’s Mesh 3 pack router. This is a remarkable piece of kit with a central router and two pods that can be placed in the dead zones of your house. It is very easy to setup and has one of the best intuitive Apps for iPhone or iPad you can wish for. I first set it up as a separate router but that led to quite a bit of confusion between the two routers i.e. what was connected to what. After turning the Bands off on my old router the cameras were still not connecting properly. I then spoke to the Google Wi-Fi customer service people and they were very helpful and patient. The person I spoke to suggested that I set the whole Wi-Fi system, i.e. Google and my old ISP router into one big hub. Leave all router facilities on on both routers. I now have my modem/router connected as one unit with only one SSID. This has given me complete Wi-Fi cover over my (quite large and solid) house. However, it was still not possible connecting the cameras. They just did not show up on the cameras “found” list. I then noticed that when the Reolink Client software was looking for Wi-Fi router signals it came up with a list of 5 to 6 router signals, all with exactly the same SSID. I worked out that these were all my own router bandwidth from my ISP router, the Google router and Google pods. Then I tried connecting my cameras to any of these separate routers on the list by clicking them and then testing the Wi-Fi signal. Low and behold when the Wi-Fi test says “success”, you will see the camera show up in the box of registered cameras. By going through all my Wi-Fi signals on the list I found all the successful connections and all cameras now work and are stable. I made a list/manual of how to do this which may be helpful but one has to be familiar with the Reolink Client PC software. The iPhone/iPad software also works well.
OPTIMUM SETTINGS FOR COMBI MODEM/ROUTER (ISP ROUTER) AND GOOGLE MESH WIFI USING your iPad/Phone and PC
1. Set Wi-Fi on iPad/iPhone Google App to the single SSID combining Google Mesh WiFi and your ISP modem/router.
2. Test the speed. Mine is 68 Mbps Download and 17 Upload on iPad and even better on PC (=excellent)
3. Test the 2 Google Pods on the Google App for signal strength. Mine are both at maximum strength.
4. Check connected devices on Google App
CONNECTING THE CAMERAS
1. Start up the Reolink Client App. On PC
2. Connect camera with ethernet cable to Google main router box
3. Power up camera
4. A camera picture will appear on PC Reolink Client PC App
5. To ensure camera is registered, open “Device Basic Information” (box with pencil)
6. If the camera has appeared in the list of Devices in the bottom half of the box you are on the right Wi-Fi channel.
7. If not, go to Device Settings, click on Wi-Fi Settings, Scanand a list of SSID names will appear.
8. Go through the list doing the Wi-Fi test on each band signal.
9. If the Wi-Fi test succeeds, check that the camera shows up in the “Device Basic Information” box.
10. Once it is visible there, you have captured that camera.Do this for all cameras.

Good luck

Easy to set up quality product and dual band not many brands of WiFi cameras on sale with dual band or 5ghz which my WiFi runs o

We CCTV could be a little faster at picking up people but it’s okay apart from that
It would be great if we could have sound I have 5 CCTV cameras all Reolink. But no sound . Great CCTV cameras

Really easy to set up. Picture quality excellent and the fact you can zoom in. Only had it a short time but definitely going to buy another for the back.

Arrived today. Very well packed and presented. All looked great upon opening and within minutes up and running with no problems. Android app works very well camera setup was easy and connection to wi-fi. Sd card fitted and formatted no problem. I have other ipcams working but the Riolink software on the PC is tjhe best of the bunch. Very clear ans easy to find everything. Picture quality not quite as good as my H.View cameras but playback etc much easier. Would look to buy again.
Very pleased with purchase and will update when fully installed and been running for a few weeks.

The Reolink RLC-410W 4MP is an excellent security camera at a very competitive price. Out of the box the camera feels very well made and ideal for outside mounting with IP66 rating. The camera is easy to install and connect. The initial connection of camera to router being necessary using the supplied Ethernet cable. The Android app and the Reolink Client are both very good with plenty of functions. I particularly liked the monitoring area to create the alerts and the recording, which can be set up very accurately. The picture quality is very good both in daylight and darkness, although we have a street light outside our house and I get a better picture with the infrared lights turned off. I did have a couple of small issues on logging into the Reolink Client and updating the camera firmware, but these were dealt with very quickly and most helpfully via email by Elaine at Reolink Support. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase.

I wish it could record 5 sec before the alarm goes off. It is better to have NVR kit, if you want absolute incident recording.

Finally a camera worth installing. Software, app and web interface easy to use. Image quality is great.

There are so many rubbish IP cameras out there, this is not one of them.

My only comment would camera lens could be a bit wider to cover more area.
