I should start by saying that I’ve only just bought the Flint 2 and found it fairly straightforward to set up, given my ‘limited’ experience in this area.
As I’m running firmware version 4.9.0, I decided to set up a 2.4 GHz IoT network (WPA2-PSK) to connect my IoT devices. I managed to connect all the devices, except for three Blink Mini cameras. I should point out that I also own a Blink Sync Module, which connected to the new IoT network without any issues. I’m not using any VPN configured on the Flint 2.

When I try to connect the Blink camera to the new IoT network, I always get the generic error ‘Unable to connect’. However, I can see that the Blink camera successfully obtains an IP address and remains connected to the network, but it isn’t visible in the Blink app at all.
I should also mention that when I try connecting the Blink camera to a 2.4 GHz hotspot for testing purposes, it connects correctly: so the Blink camera is working.
I’d be grateful for some help from those with more experience, as I’ve been unable to resolve this issue for days now. Thanks to anyone who can help.
