By the way, I did this upgrade and it works. It did not get a signal 2x or more better. Not a huge increase in signal detection but it did increase it enough to make the difference between a camera that would almost but not quite get a solid signal to one that now gets a solid signal. I have the cam in an external garage to watch my vehicle and garage interior. The signal has to go about 100' and through 5 walls. Adding an external antenna gave it just enough boost to get a signal, but if I move the camera another 15 feet I then start to lose the signal again. So I think it increased my range by about 20' and one wall. Not sure how much range it would give in a straight unobstructed line of site or through fewer walls. But well worth the upgrade if you have a week signal or can barely connect, should fix your issue.

Just did this myself. If you put the antenna on the side, you can keep the speaker. It’s a tight fit, but I went from 1 bar to 3 bars signal. Thanks for your tear-down and guide!

@@TimMort Thanks, the V2 antenna was able to reach about 90 feet to my wifi, great (DIY) enchancement. Also, it keeps the HD setting. My 3 - V3 are outside and closer, two require setting to SD and 360 to work correctly. The V3 will be a stretch hopefully it will work.

The ONLY good thing about my Wyze cams is the Wi-Fi. Even works in the garage, on the COLDEST Canadian winter day/night, which is not close to where my router is.. Even my original sensors connected (until they all died one-by-one). The last one died sometime (I don't know when) without any warning (IT'S SUPER CLOSE TO THE ROUTER! 😡). Because of the dumbest thing I've ever heard of, it cannot be reconnected even I put a new battery in there. So, u being a smart guy, know of anything I can use these sensors for? I got a ton of them. Cannot use them anymore. They can NEVER be reconnected to the bridge. 😡😭

I was excited to see them in Amazon Canada and UNTIL I saw the price 😳😱. I was going to Cali in 2 weeks so waited till I got there and went straight to Home Depot there to buy it at a great price. They dropped support of the v1 sensors and wanted ppl to buy the V2 instead.
