Blink cameras use a sync module to communicate with your wifi network. Sometimes the Blink sync module will freeze or stop working. Use our simple steps to get your Blink system up and running fast.

There are several reasons why you may need to reset the Blink Sync Module:

Troubleshooting: If you are experiencing issues with your Blink cameras, such as connectivity problems or a lack of video feed, resetting the Sync Module can often resolve these issues.
Firmware updates: If a new firmware update is available for your Sync Module, resetting it may be necessary in order to install the update.
Adding new cameras: If you are adding new cameras to your Blink system, resetting the Sync Module is often required in order for the new cameras to connect properly.
Changing network settings: If you change your network settings, such as the network name or password, resetting the Sync Module can help the cameras reconnect to the new network.
Factory reset: When you are selling or giving away your blink cameras, resetting the sync module and camera to factory settings is needed to wipe out all the data.

It’s important to note that resetting the Sync Module will cause all connected cameras to lose their connection and will require them to be set up again.
