Revainrating 3 out of 5

Wi-Fi signal was weak without external antenna on 20ft van

Hello Revane's Choice. In July I bought your Haloview camera kit plus an additional camera. $250 Kit plus $90 mc108 camera Total cost $350 It had signal for 5 months last week when we had lots of rain/fog and bad weather and for some reason I have no signal now. As it is rated for use above 900ft, what can you do to help me? My truck is only 22 feet long. I am very dissatisfied after spending so much money. The cameras were intermittently connected to the network last week, but not anymore! The cameras are connected to a power source and I have tried reconnecting them. So I bought it in July and used it until December, Friday 13th December. Now when I turn it on it shows a circle with a solid line, so after multiple turns on it doesn't register the signal strength at all. My truck is only 22 feet long and 12 feet high and is made of aluminum. had to buy an extension antenna then buy a steel adhesive plate to attach the magnet to my aluminum box. So since I have 2 rear cameras I had to install 2 wired 16ft extension antennas. I see no point in a wireless system after all of this. I probably should have just hardwired it. With extension antennas stretched from the back of the truck to the cab to receive a WiFi signal. The cameras are really good and the monitor is very good.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • boring packaging
