Reboot router camera and doorbell restart not working can't read barcode, time to switch?

I had to reboot my router.  I called to get my indoor cameras and doorbell reconnected.  Tried the unplug and replug, but did not work.  Had to try to get cameras to read the barcode.  It has been difficult to get the cameras to read the barcodes in the past, but after 2 hours, I'm giving up.  There has to be a better way to reconnect cameras.  I know there is, since it took less than 5 minutes to reconnect my outdoor ARLO.  Is anyone else having problems getting their Simplisafe cameras to read the barcodes?  I think it's time to switch to a system (I'm going to check out ARLO for Doorbell and wired indoor cameras).
Simplisafe should put a "customer friendly' installation and restart process in place for their cameras and doorbell)
