Position the camera at a height of 8-10 feet, angled slightly downward to cover a wide area. Avoid pointing it directly at light sources to prevent glare. Ensure it is sheltered from weather elements if installed outdoors.

How can I troubleshoot poor video quality?

Check the network bandwidth and ensure the camera is receiving a strong Wi-Fi signal. Lower the resolution settings if necessary. Clean the camera lens and check for any obstructions. Update the camera firmware to the latest version.
