THANK YOU Moblie WizTech!! You fixed my problem!! Not even the Wyze support team could help me with this and I was ready to send back my camera to them. Your instructions were super easy to follow and you talked at a nice pace (and no annoying background music)...kudos to you. One thing I ran into was I accidentally flipped on the write protection tab on my SD card adapter and it took me a few tries to finally figure out what I did wrong there. But great video, thanks!

One I got the blue/yellow blinking lights I pressed the rest button and went through the add a cam pan process but it kept telling me it couldn't find my network. But after a few times cancelling and going through that process suddenly it says setup completed. It doesn't have to make sense if it works! And it working perfectly again. Thank you!

You press it for about 10 seconds or so... you should get those lights. Also make sure you start with the cam unplugged, press and hold the button, and the plug it in while still holding until both lights are flashing.
Any other recommendations to get the camera to connect. I received it today brand new and a new SD card. I’ve tried all the steps you provided and it still will not connect.

Try doing all the steps again and ensure nothing is on the micro SD card but the .bin file. Once you see blue and yellow lights turn off... give it a few minutes or so. If it still not connecting... do a factory reset by by pressing the "Setup" button until you hear the voice prompt for setup. Then just set it up again.
I have the latest firmware already do I still need to do this? I'm getting error 90 and solid yellow light I've tried to unplug and repower on and it's not working 😢

Are you adding the file to the Micro SD card while it is empty. If not, backup the Micro SD card, make there is nothing on the card, go through the steps, and then see if that works. If so, you can then add the files back on the card afterward.
