Amazon ECHO SHOW 5
Cam Configuration -
Echo Show 5 requires using our Monocle Gateway service due to stricter security requirements enforced by Amazon on these newer devices.
Have you installed and are you using Monocle Gateway?

No!
I’m not very experienced, how could I do? -
Start here:
https://monoclecam.com/monocle-gatewayThere are various setup instructions based on the type of computer / OS you wish to install on.
Thanks, Robert

But then the computer must always be on?
I have my pc with SO win -
Its also important to note that you will also need to TAG your cameras in the Monocle Web Portal.
Start with tag@tunnel
– this will instruct the camera to use your Monocle Gateway instance.See: https://monoclecam.com/monocle-gateway/tagging
Thanks, Robert

Yes, the computer would need to be on and running the service anytime you wish to be able to view the camera streams from Alexa.
As a longer term solution, you can also use a small inexpensive low-powered embedded device like a Raspberry Pi to run the gateway service if you prefer not to leave your computer running full time.
Thanks, Robert

I don’t have the possibility to leave the PC on.
there are no alternatives?
I have a nas synologi DS214play but it is not supported -
Does this Synology NAS support Docker instances? We do have instructions on getting the gateway working on Synology using Docker. It can be a bit complicated, but it does work.
Buying a Raspberry Pi or similar device can also work if you find the service useful.
Here is the older model 3B which works fine:

Thanks, Robert
