What You’ll Need
Before we begin, make sure you have these items ready:
- Access to your Ezviz camera
- A small pin or paperclip
- A stable Wi-Fi network (optional for reconfiguration)
Step 1: Locate the Reset Button
The first step is to find the reset button on your Ezviz camera. Typically, the reset button is located on the back or bottom of the camera. It is usually a small hole labeled “RESET”.
Step 2: Prepare the Pin or Paperclip
Take your pin or paperclip and straighten it if necessary. This will be used to press the reset button.
Step 3: Power Off the Camera
Ensure your Ezviz camera is powered off before proceeding with the reset.
Step 4: Press and Hold the Reset Button
Using the pin or paperclip, gently press and hold the reset button. You will need to maintain this pressure for approximately ten seconds.
Step 5: Release the Reset Button
After ten seconds have passed, release the reset button. Your Ezviz camera will now enter the reset mode, which may take a few minutes.
Step 6: Wait for the Reset to Complete
During this process, the Ezviz camera will undergo a complete reset, restoring it to its factory settings. This might take a couple of minutes, so be patient and avoid interrupting the process.

Step 8: Test Your Camera
Finally, turn on your Ezviz camera and ensure it is functioning properly. Check if it is capturing clear footage and connecting to the Ezviz app or any other necessary software.
