1. Why does it keep saying camera lost power?

2. Why is it so slow to load motion notifications? I’m running a single G6 on a udr7 before I invest in a UNVR and a few more cameras. Seems like my cheap ass Wyze cameras load quicker? Running a UDR7 and a U7 lite ap. But obviously hardwired into a switch to the camera.

Also not a network guy, just enough to get things setup. I checked all firmware is up to date on protect, network, and G6

I ran into an issue trying to run some wiring for PoE cameras.

I pulled down a section of my vinyl soffit and found it’s backed with solid plywood (closed/boxed soffit). I was originally planning to fish cable from the attic down into the soffit, but now I’m not sure if there’s actually access.

If I drill through the plywood, is there typically an open path into the attic in homes like this, or is it usually blocked at the eaves?

House was built in 1976 in southwestern PA. There are no soffit vents, but the attic seems to ventilate fine from what I’ve seen over the past few years.

First photo isn’t my house, just a reference that looks similar. Second photo is mine—I was test fitting a camera and realized there’s plywood behind the vinyl. The wire you see was just a temporary run from my switch to check the angle and placement.
