Key FOB transmit range has suddenly decreased

Does it have active wifi?

I don't believe it does. I have to enable WiFi whenever I communicate with it via my phone. Viofo A129 Duo

Happy New Years everyone! Just a quick update on the key FOB range issue.

Turns out the wire providing live power to my dash-cam during 'Parking Mode' was interfering with the receiving range of the key FOB. Once parking mode was disabled, the original range of the key FOB was restored.

I guess the truck's antenna for receiving key FOB signals is in the proximity of the power wire I ran - somewhere from the dash-cam down to the internal fuse compartment.

Anyone know the exact antenna location? Perhaps I could shield the wire so parking mode could be used without interfering with the key FOB range.

I'm having the same issue as described here: https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/hard-wire-dash-cam-install.550/post-226974
