My 70MAI camera keeps disconnecting from Wi-Fi after I start recording, how do I resolve this issue?

1. Weak Wi-Fi Signal**: If the Wi-Fi signal is weak in your area, it may cause disconnections while recording. Try moving your router to a more central location or upgrading to a mesh network system for better coverage. Overheating Camera Body**: The 70MAI camera might be overheating due to prolonged use, especially during recording sessions. This can cause the Wi-Fi connection to drop. Check if there are any blockages around the camera's vents and ensure proper airflow. Interference from Other Devices**: Other devices in your home can interfere with the Wi-Fi signal and cause disconnections. Try moving other electronic devices away from the 70MAI camera or switching them off while recording. Outdated Firmware**: If the firmware on your 70MAI camera is outdated, it might be causing compatibility issues with your router. Check for any firmware updates available for your camera model and install them if necessary. Router Configuration Issues**: It's possible that there are some settings on your router that are causing disconnections. Try restarting your router and see if the issue persists. Physical Obstacles**: Physical obstacles between the 70MAI camera and your router can cause signal loss or interference, leading to disconnections. Check for any physical obstructions in the line of sight between the camera and router. Quality of Service (QoS) Settings**: Some routers have QoS settings that can prioritize certain devices over others. If you're using a QoS setting on your router, it might be causing issues with your 70MAI camera's connection. Try adjusting or disabling these settings to see if the issue persists. Camera Software Issues**: There could be software-related issues with the 70MAI camera that are causing disconnections. Check for any updates available for the camera's software and install them if necessary. If none of these solutions resolve the issue, it might be worth reaching out to the manufacturer or a professional for further assistance.

Why does my dash cam's GPS data sometimes show a different location than the one displayed on Google Maps after uploading the footage to the Mi Home app?

There are several reasons why this might be happening. Firstly, let's consider the potential causes for the discrepancy between your dash cam's GPS data and Google Maps. One reason could be due to the accuracy of the GPS signal received by your dash cam. While most modern GPS systems have a relatively high level of accuracy, they're not perfect and can sometimes provide incorrect or outdated locations. This is more likely to happen in areas with heavy tree cover, tall buildings, or near large bodies of water. Another possibility is that the GPS data recorded by your dash cam may be being interpreted incorrectly by the Mi Home app. This could be due to a variety of factors, such as an outdated mapping database or incorrect configuration settings within the app. It's also worth noting that the resolution and accuracy of the Google Maps data can vary depending on the location and the type of device used to access it. If you're viewing the maps on a smaller screen, like a phone, it may not be possible to view the level of detail required to accurately match the GPS data from your dash cam. Another possibility is that the Mi Home app may be using different mapping data than Google Maps. This could result in discrepancies between the two sources. If you're still experiencing issues with the accuracy of the location displayed on your dash cam's footage, I would recommend checking for any updates to the firmware or software on your dash cam and ensuring that it's configured correctly within the app. It's worth noting that this issue is not unique to Mi Home dash cams, as many other GPS-enabled cameras have reported similar issues in the past.
