Is Wyze Base Station wired or wireless?

It can be used both ways!

Wyze Base Station can be used both wirelessly, and wired via an Ethernet cable. 

To use your base station with a wired connection:

Use an Ethernet cable to connect to your Internet router during set up. A wired connection ensures you have the most stable and reliable connection between your Wyze Base Station, Wyze Cam Outdoor, and router.

To use your base station wirelessly:

  1. In the Wyze app, tap on your Wyze Base Station.
  2. Tap on the Settings gear on the top right.
  3. Tap Device Info > Change Connection. You'll see one of the following screens:
    • Select your network.
      1. Follow the onscreen steps to connect to your Wi-Fi network.
      2. Once connected, unplug the Base Station from your router.
      3. The status light will flash blue, then turn solid once complete. You're all set!
