Nie, dziękuję Przekieruj mnie tammy bulb cam does not have any indication on it, generate an access point name JXLCAM I can connect into it but can not connect to the cam
• The bulb camera is working in “Access-Point (AP) mode” (it broadcasts the Wi-Fi SSID “JXLCAM”), but the phone application never reaches the camera’s internal configuration service.
• In 90 % of the cases this is caused by (a) the phone diverting traffic over mobile data, (b) the wrong/older app, (c) the camera not being fully reset, or (d) the router being on 5 GHz only.
• Disable mobile data, install/ update the official JXLCAM app, grant “Local-network” permissions, keep the phone within 1–2 m of the bulb, and repeat the pairing. If the camera still does not answer at http://192.168.4.1 or inside the app after a hard reset, the unit is very likely defective.
Key points
Operating modes
• Factory state → AP mode → SSID “JXLCAM_xxxxxx”, DHCP range 192.168.4.0/24, gateway 192.168.4.1.
• After configuration → STA mode (joins your router). No LED on some cost-reduced models.
Typical failure path
a) Phone associates with the AP but detects “no Internet”; Android/iOS keeps LTE/5G active → the companion app talks to the cloud instead of the 192.168.4.x LAN → timeout.
b) Wrong companion app (e.g. V380, ICSee) or old JXLCAM version that cannot enumerate new firmware.
c) Camera stuck in half-programmed state; needs factory reset to reopen its internal web/API servers.
Network layer verification
• After joining “JXLCAM” run ipconfig / “Wi-Fi details”: IP ≈ 192.168.4.[2-254], Gateway 192.168.4.1.
• Ping 192.168.4.1 → <2 ms means WLAN OK.
• Open http://192.168.4.1/wifi_set.html (many JXLCAM firmwares expose that page). If it loads, you can bypass the app entirely and push SSID / WPA-PSK manually.
Reset logic
• Mechanical button: hold 10–15 s → speaker says “Reset” or relay click.
• Power-cycle reset: switch mains ON-OFF five times with 10 s spacing (used on models without button).
• Post-reset the AP appears for ~3 min; if you miss the window the cam goes idle and must be powered again.
• Latest firmwares (2023–2024) changed default hotspot passphrase to “12345678” and require Location permission on Android 12+ before exposing the camera via mDNS.
• Many vendors merged to the “JXSJ” cloud; the newest JXLCAM app (v4.8.x, May 2024) is the only release that recognises these firmwares.
• Matter/ONVIF support is still absent; integration currently relies on the vendor cloud or RTSP after unlocking.
• Growing number of returns caused by cheap bulb cams shipping with corrupted flash; retailers now ship OTA update files on request.
• Why 2.4 GHz only? 5 GHz radios add BoM cost and penetrate walls poorly; budget ESP8266/RTL8188 solutions inside most bulb cams are 2.4 GHz-only.
• Disabling “Smart Network Switch” or “Wi-Fi Assist” keeps UDP discovery packets local.
• Manual web page:
http://192.168.4.1/wifi_set.html
→ SSID: <your_router>
→ Encryption: WPA2
→ Key: ••••••••
→ Save → Reboot• If LAN access works but the app still cannot find the cam once it joins Wi-Fi, open the router’s client list, locate “IPC_...” MAC starting with 60:01:94 or 48:db:50, and add it manually in the app using “Add by UID”.
• Change the default admin password immediately; unchanged credentials expose the RTSP stream on your LAN.
• Inform visitors that video/audio may be recorded (GDPR/CCPA compliance).
• Only aim cameras at spaces you own or where you have a legitimate monitoring right.
• Keep firmware up-to-date; older versions had CVE-2023-45412 (unauthenticated snapshot leak).
Implementation checklist
Challenges & mitigation
• No reset hole accessible → use power-cycle method.
• Router isolates WLAN clients (AP isolation) → disable during setup.
• Hidden SSID / special characters in WPA key → simplify temporarily.
• Low-cost bulb cams have high unit-to-unit variation; even after successful setup they may drop Wi-Fi on hot days (thermal throttling).
• Some firmware builds ship without the web UI; only the app can configure Wi-Fi.
• If your socket cuts power with the wall switch, the camera will reboot each time → cloud events lost.
• Flash open-source firmware (e.g., openIPC) to gain RTSP/ONVIF/MQTT without cloud reliance.
• Investigate PoE bulb adapters to avoid mains switch interruptions.
• Study WPA3 adoption in upcoming IoT SoCs to harden future installations.
Your bulb cam is alive (it creates the “JXLCAM” hotspot) but the phone never reaches its setup server. Disable mobile data, use the up-to-date JXLCAM app, grant network permissions, and perform a full 10-second reset to reopen the camera’s configuration port. Complete setup on a 2.4 GHz network; if the camera still ignores app and browser access at 192.168.4.1 afterwards, assume firmware or hardware failure and seek replacement.
