Hi @user51011. I recommend factory resetting your Camera and then [reconnecting it to your wifi](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360034825092-How-to-Reconnect-Your-Video-Doorbell-or-Security-Camera-to-Wifi-or-Change-Your-Wifi-Network). To factory reset your Camera, press and hold the set-up button for 20–25 seconds. Once it's back online and it recognizes that the Solar Panel is not connected, plug the Solar Panel back in and keep an eye on it for a few days to see if it starts taking a trickle charge from the Solar Panel. If you have tried this step, and are still having the same concern, give our support team a call at one of the numbers available [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/213608406#callus).
