iHost 2.7.0 update mentioned that there is support for Sonoff cameras with ONVIF support. I have a PT2 and B1P as well, enabled ONVIF on both of them, but I cannot get iHost to recognize them. I have a single network at home, they should be able to see each other. Has anyone managed to add other ONVIF cameras to iHost? ---

I managed to add the Sonoff Cam Pan-Tilt 2 camera. If you have previously manually added the camera to ihost, you must delete it and add it again as an automatic search. > [@man\_technologist‍【Release Note】eWeLink CUBE V2.7.0 Update](https://forum.ewelink.cc/t/release-note-ewelink-cube-v2-7-0-update/205563/4): > > Can you tell me more about this feature? > > > [@man\_technologist‍【Release Note】eWeLink CUBE V2.7.0 Update](https://forum.ewelink.cc/t/release-note-ewelink-cube-v2-7-0-update/205563/3): > > > > I have a CAM Pan-Tilt 2 camera, but I haven’t noticed any new features. > > This feature requires you to add the camera using the automatic discovery ONVIF protocol, and your PT2 firmware version must be greater than 1.0.5. > > ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/ewelinkforum/original/2X/e/efa82eb544711930506bd6c439f1ee4755f44525.png) ---

Yes, I checked again, both cameras are on or above the firmware version in the note. I goto Add Device, click on Start Setup, but nothing happens. No cameras are detected. I have 2 non-Sonoff cameras added via RTSP, but not these two. ---

You may need to enable the ONVIF setting of your camera on eWeLink App. check this； ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/ewelinkforum/original/2X/4/4225e7658ca498c2fd5fbfb82e942ce0b2ee0fda.png) ---

Yes, of course, ONVIF is enabled on both cameras… ---

I have added two Tapo ONVIF cameras by using the the blue + button ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/ewelinkforum/original/2X/2/296799f32d42ff7b32af5a7c6fcf5d36429fbdb0.jpeg) ---

I have add Reolink E1Outdoor Pro to iHost, picture is, PTZ don’t work. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/ewelinkforum/original/2X/c/c4d3b1392f70e570ff03a9a86a4fbb3178fd961b.jpeg) ---

I have the same issue. I have multiple Onvif camera’s (Sonoff CAM-B1P, Sonoff CAM-PT2 and a few Tuya camera’s) and all are not recognized during scanning on both my CubeOS test setup on a Raspberry Pi 5 and the iHost. All camera’s have Onvif enabled. Could it have something to do with having a password set on the Onvif of the camera’s? ---

I wanted to connect the cameras via onvif to iHost but the cameras kept dropping out and the operation was not reliable. And it was the same via cast. Tried camera from sonoff, herospeed and hikvision doorbell.
