I appreciate the kind words! Now, let’s dive into your question about whether Eufy works without the Internet.
The short answer is no, Eufy does not work without an internet connection. Allow me to explain why.
First and foremost, during the initial setup process, Eufy requires an internet connection. This is because it needs to connect to the Eufy cloud servers to register your device and complete the setup. You will need to connect Eufy to your Wi-Fi network using an ethernet cable during this setup process.
Once you have successfully set up your Eufy device, it still requires a constant internet connection to function properly. This is because Eufy relies on the cloud servers for a variety of tasks. For example, it uses the cloud servers to store video footage, provide remote access to your device, and send notifications to your smartphone.
Without an internet connection, Eufy would lose the ability to store video footage in the cloud. This means that if any motion is detected or an event occurs while the internet is down, you won’t be able to access that footage later on. Additionally, without an internet connection, you won’t be able to receive real-time notifications on your smartphone when something happens.
It’s worth noting that while Eufy does require an internet connection, it doesn’t consume a significant amount of bandwidth. So, even if you have a limited internet plan, using Eufy shouldn’t cause any major issues.
In my personal experience, having an internet connection for Eufy is crucial for its full functionality. I rely on the remote access and notifications to keep an eye on my home when I’m away. It provides peace of mind knowing that I can check in on my cameras anytime, anywhere.
To summarize, Eufy does require an internet connection for both the setup process and regular use. It relies on the cloud servers to store video footage, provide remote access, and send notifications. While it may not work without an internet connection, it doesn’t consume a significant amount of bandwidth.
I hope this detailed explanation helps clarify the role of the internet in using Eufy. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!
