reset the hub use its defaults
or get your own router with 1Gb or 2.5Gb ports and use hub in modem mode
That message refers to the 5Ghz channel. 108 is a DFS channel and as such will have a short delay in transmitting, as by law, the Hub has to check for Radar stations in the area. It's nothing to worry about. You can move the channel to, e.g. 36 as it's not a DFS channel.
See this link for a guide - Understanding DFS Channels | Wyebot Docs
Ok changed to channel 36, app for ext camera cant find network. On my phone on same network, only seeing the orignal network, not the new 2.8 channel
Ok tryed to add camera, using details as on VM Hub, Security-34C28, Wifi Network Name SSID, Broadcast YES, Security WPA2-PSK, Wifi Password V___3, Not found . any ideas
Many CCTV management apps are so poorly written they fail to work when the mobile phone & management app are connected to the 5GHz band, but the CCTV camera only works on the 2.4GHz band.
The solution for many has been to temporally disable the VM Hub's 5GHz Wi-Fi band, thus forcing the mobile phone on to the 2.4GHz band where the camera's management app may have better success configuring the CCTV camera.
