Unpairing a Lorex Lwb4801 camera can be simple. This guide will help you do it step by step. Let’s start!
What is Unpairing?
Unpairing means disconnecting your camera from a device. This can be your phone, tablet, or computer. Sometimes, you may want to unpair to connect the camera to another device. Or, you may have problems and need to reset it. Whatever the reason, this guide will help you.
Things You Need
- Your Lorex Lwb4801 camera
- The device it is currently paired with
- Access to your internet network
Step 1: Locate Your Camera
First, find your Lorex Lwb4801 camera. Make sure it is on. Check if the light is on. If the light is off, turn on the camera. You can do this by plugging it into power.
Step 2: Open the Lorex App
Next, open the Lorex app on your device. Make sure you are logged in. If you are not logged in, enter your username and password. Then, press the login button.
Step 3: Find Your Camera in the App
Once you are in the app, look for your camera. The camera should be in the list of devices. If you see it, tap on it. This will open the camera settings.
Step 4: Access Camera Settings
In the camera settings, look for the option to unpair or remove the camera. This may be called “Remove Device” or “Unpair Camera.” It depends on the app version.
Step 5: Confirm the Unpairing
After you find the option, tap on it. The app will ask for confirmation. It will say something like, “Are you sure you want to unpair this camera?” Tap “Yes” or “Confirm” to finish.
Step 6: Check the Status
Now, check if your camera has been unpaired. The light on your camera may change. If it is still connected, try to unpair again.
Step 7: Restart Your Camera
If you still have issues, restart your camera. Unplug it from the power source. Wait for 10 seconds, then plug it back in. This helps reset the connection.
Common Problems and Solutions
You may face some problems while unpairing your Lorex camera. Here are some common issues and their solutions:
Problem 1: Cannot Find The Camera In The App
If you cannot find your camera, check the Wi-Fi connection. Make sure your camera is connected to the same network as your device.
Problem 2: Unpair Option Is Not Visible
If the unpair option is missing, update the Lorex app. Sometimes, older versions may not show all features.

If your camera still appears connected, reset it to factory settings. You can do this by holding the reset button on the camera for 10 seconds.
Factory Resetting Your Lorex Lwb4801 Camera
If unpairing does not work, a factory reset may help. A factory reset clears all settings. Your camera will return to original settings. Follow these steps:

After resetting, wait for the camera to restart. This may take a few minutes. Once done, you can set it up again.

Step 1: Open The Lorex App
Open the Lorex app on your device again. Make sure you are logged in.

Look for the option to add a new device. This is often marked as “Add Camera” or “Set Up New Device.”
