I bought 2 units of da fang before reading this forum. A bit regret.
The connection is poor. Pairing took me 15 times of retry.

Which is the best firmware?
I tested many firmware, basically the 5.5.1.194 is the most stable one. (BTW, i am using digi as internet.)
I even tested the custom hack firmware. End up given up because digi cannot port forward, it is useless to have RSTP.

The another unit is still sealed and leaving there. No mood to touch it anymore.
This Dafang function is much better than my mijia 360, but the realibility is shit.

I am using Mi Home 5.0.9.
Dafang Firmware-5.5.1.200.
Quite stable.Maybe you can try and tested internally first with wi-fi.

I tried many version.
Only .194 work best for me.

is the cam icon showing up at your hub?

No. Mine bought from Aliexpress. Read the one sold
in the US only works. Do not want to invest or spend
too much time in Xiaofang or Dafang anymore.
Now invested in Wyze.
Wyze at the moment work on Echo Show. Google Hub
and Wyze firmware on beta. Maybe by the middle of the year,
we will see Wyze on Goggle Hub.
