1 out of 5 stars Just a toy - Junk   January 9, 2010
Randy M (Des Moines, IA United States)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Security cameras are for just that... security. This dlink, like others from dlink I have tried, turns out to be worthless. If you need to depend on a "security camera", this internet webcam is not the solution. It drops offline, wired or wireless. One hour the camera will work, the next minute for no reason it stops. The only fix is a reboot i.e. unplug the power. Hardly reliable and certainlly NOT security! A security camera means its dependable 24/7, this camera is just junk and stops sending video and you can not access the camera without a power cycle to the camera. Also, this camera must have activex installed on your pc to even view video. No cell smart phone devices have acticex support so forget about cell phone viewing. And most if not all companies block activex applications on work PC's due to virus-security reasons. So forget about viewing this webcam video from a work PC. Nada going to happen. Basically this internet webcam is worthless as any type of reliable security camera. Do not waste your $$$. And dlink support solution to camera freeze-ups?... unplug the camera from the power. Hardly an option when no one is home or in the shop after hours/nights/weekends. And thus there goes your security. What does this camera do? It is basically a wireless/wired webcam. Not for security. Not for smart phone viewing. Not for work PC viewing. Not anything you can depend on to work 24/7 without at least several power cycles. And a simple pc webcam is a lot less costly than this childs toy. I wasted a lot of $$$ on this only to discover you must have activex installed on a pc to view video, no smart phone support (due to the activex issue), and then you have to deal with those constant camera freeze-ups. And the MYDLINK web connect also uses activex from your PC, so while [...] is a great idea, it is NOT a usable idea. Not from a smart phone or work PC viewing point of view. Just beware all the fallbacks involved with this so called security internet webcam. Security it is NOT. And viewing is extremely limited, that is when the camera is not froze up and needing a power cycle.


3 out of 5 stars Support site is bad   December 25, 2009
R. Lobsiger (Omaha, NE USA)
setup was easy. Hooked right into my dLink wireless router. Chrome does not work. Not good. IE blows compared to Chrome.
Also it says that the firmware needs to be updated, but I can't find the file on dLink's site. Last week I easily found the firmware update on my DLink router but after 20 fustrating minutes looking for the firmware I gave up. Not cool. So far not that great.

I have had this for only 2 days so I will try to remember to update for any longevity issues. But as these thing go, it was easy to setup. The wireless setup using WPS did not work but I have never had a product install using it. Has anyone? So the wizard took me through an Ethernet setup, then to wireless which worked smoothly. I have since tried it in several different locations in the house and each time after I plugged it back in it quickly reestablished network connection. The free D-viewcam software for your computer is nice. I also found the Mydlink remote connection to be just fine, and free. The routine of establishing the mydlink account from the desktop wizard was a bit odd but it worked. The picture is not great, but perfectly adequate for my modest petcam purposes. As I said. It works as advertised so I give it 5 stars.

Two notes:

-- In other dlink camera reviews here I read that the mydlink does not work with Firefox. It works just fine for me. Firefox invokes java and includes the modest zoom the camera is capable of.
-- I have an HP Windows Home Server (WHS) and the D-viewcam Beta software 1.00 is not working with the WHS. WHS was just upgraded to Power Pack 3 and I wonder if that is the issue. The Addin installs but has no connection to the camera. I am engaged now with Dlink email support. We will see how that goes.




5 out of 5 stars Decent picture and very easy to setup on internet,,,if only I could access 100% of the time   November 5, 2009

I bought this camera along with the Panasonic wireless to test out.
I was able to set up the dlink wireless camera in just a few minutes and view on the internet. (Panasonic took a lot longer but instructions on the review were great help!)

At first I thought this camera was horrible because the picture was so blurry.
I figured out that I had to turn the front lens to get it clear and was impressed with the picture. :)
I have not had to mess with it since then and the camera works well.
I have motion detection setup and every time someone comes up to my front door or walks in my front yard I receive a picture in my email. I think it is very cool and the picture is pretty nice.
One thing you cannot do with this camera that you can do with the Panasonic is control movement from the internet but I am ok with that. Also, I sometimes try to connect to my camera via mydlink and the connection is broken.
I haven't had time to figure that out yet but I suspect it has something to do with comcast.
I do still receive the motion detection emails even when I cannot connect to the camera over the internet from work so I know its setup issue.
Sound is also quite clear!

I do not think it is fair for the other reviewer to give this 1 star because it doesn't work on their iphone so I am giving it 5 stars :D
I can understand the frustration they may have. Maybe you can ask dlink support for assistance?
P.S. dlink support was supportive when I had a question about ports to set up with motion detection.
They did only have to direct me to comcast support which took multiple calls and finally on third call I got a port that worked and emails from motion detection are now sent out using comcast email.
Port is 587 for comcast smtp setup.

All in all it is a pretty decent camera.



1 out of 5 stars no iPhone support   October 22, 2009

2 out of 23 found this review helpful

I bought this to monitor my baby/sitter remotely, and it doesn't support the iphone so it is definitely not worth it. I already had the Linksys WVC54GCA Webcam and it worked great on the iphone for about half the price of this one, and i figured this did the same, but i was wrong.

If you were planning on using the iphone to view video from this camera, don't bother.
