Hi, this is my first post here. I picked up a nearly new LS VISION outdoor solar ip camera that was a customer return on eBay. The problem is there is no original box and the first owner kept the mounting base which is where the QR Code sticker is/was. I spent most of yesterday researching this (I originally didn't even know the correct model number) and think I may be SOL. It was still worth it for the $20 I spent just for the lithium batteries and solar panel alone, but it seems a waste to not get to play with it. Is there any provision from the manufacturer if you loose the QR code? This is an LS-WS2201 "Tuya low power outdoor solar cctv ip camera 1080p ptz wifi solar powered security camera." https://www.lsvisionhd.com/products/low-power-outdoor-solar-cctv-ip-camera-1080p-ptz-3g-4g-sim-wireless-solar-powered-security-camera-fa.html Here it is on aliexpress: aliexpress link Thanks.

Ok thanks. I have a lot to learn about IP cameras.

Thanks! I forgot to mention that I'm just trying to connect this camera to the app which is probably the only way to use it. I have a hard-wired AHD system and DVR that I use for day-to-day security... -just bought this for fun. I was also thinking of using the solar part of it with this slightly better camera that I got for $14: https://www.amazon.com/REOLINK-Argus-PT-Solar-Panel/dp/B07W6PXRR8 It is missing the solar panel but works great and has internal batteries that can be charged via USB-C. The other day I developed a leak in my living room ceiling from some old plumbing. While I waited for the landlord to fix the leak, I was able to use that little Reolink instantly to point at the celing and monitor the situation. I thought it was pretty cool. I just used the app which worked well. The Reolink had the sticker and it worked even though I'm guessing it was scanned before. (?)
