D-Link Day & Night Wi-Fi Camera with Remote Viewing (DCS-932L) (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

Since I love new tech, I thought after reading the description on the  D-Link Wireless Day/Night Network Surveillance Camera with mydlink-Enabled, DCS-932L (White)  that set-up would be a breeze at 15 minutes. However, 2 aspects went laboriously long. This D-Link camera had no problem connecting with my  NETGEAR AC1600 Dual Band Wi-Fi Gigabit Router (R6250)  with the WPS button. I put the DLink CD in my PC and chose setup wizard. Everything set up fine except for email setup so I called my IPS provider to make sure I was entering everything correctly which I was. The DLink customer service voice answering system said there would be at least a 25 minutes wait; as it was evening, I thought I would wait until morning and hope for shorter wait time.The next morning, the DLink Customer Support said wait time would be in excess of 10 minutes and I thought great BUT a CSR did not come on the phone until an hour plus 10 minutes. The DLink Customer Support thought it would be easier to just avoid using my ISP email and use my gmail account so we set that up in no time.So now it was set up to email me some still-shot frames every time motion was detected. I also wanted video to record and in order to do that I had to also download from the DLink website a free camera app for this particular model DCS-932L. After downloading and installing, every time I clicked on Main Console (the name of the D-link video recording app), it gave me an error message to change my screen resolution. Following the CSRs advice, we switched around my desktop monitor resolution to various settings but none of them would allow the Main Console to load without the screen resolution error message. He put me on hold many times to consult with others for over an hour but I figured out how to fix it so their software would load and run on my desktop. Here is how I fixed it. Right click on Main Console icon. Click on properties. Click on Compatibility. Scroll to the OS you are using and select. Check Disable display scaling on high DPI settings. Click Apply. Click ok. Open Main Console software without error message.I like having both the still shot frames from the website and the video recorded through the software. I found both the website and software kind of clunky and not too intuitive, but I now have very good documents that would stand up in a court of law for surveillance on my property at a very reasonable cost. I love how technology keeps giving us more options at really reasonable prices.I also downloaded the android DLink app which took a little more time than anticipated because when I searched in the Play Store for DLink app which is what Dlink calls it, I got a selection of things to chose from and had to read the descriptions to figure out the right one for me is currently called DLink Lite. After signing in with my email and password, it was pretty easy to see live feed whenever I want.I would not hesitate to purchase more of these D-Link Wireless Network Surveillance Cameras and the software as well as mydlink website can handle more cameras. Now that I got these two setup snaffoos behind me, next time will be a breezy 15minutes or less. Thank you DLink!

**** Updated - See latest comment at the bottom of this review *****I live in an apartment in a fairly secure neighborhood, but it would seem with the economic downturn, there are more thefts then usual these days. So I decided to start building a security system. I must say, after shopping around for several months for security systems and services, this by far is the best and easiest way to go! My home is all about the internet, so, the decision to go with the wireless N camera was a good choice. This camera was incredibly easy to set up with the software provided. While I am a network head, I didn't need to use any brain power at all to get this camera up and running. The most difficult thing is finding the right place to put the camera! Once installed, I searched the D-LINK website for the Security Software so that I can record and playback video from my camera on my PC, even set it up to only record when there is motion in front of the camera! Also, it seems easy to add additional cameras for other areas like the garage, entry way, and more! Further, I can check on my apartment with video and audio from my Kindle Fire with the D-link app! So, while I am away, I can check on my place! Also, I can also go to D-Link's website from any other computer and log in and check that way too ... amazing, and my only initial cost was the camera!The only complaint I have is that the power cord from the wall plug to the camera is only 4 feet long. So, that means splicing in another wire to get more length to get the camera high enough so its out of the way. Being an electrician, that's simple, but for others it might not be. The only other choice would be to mount the camera lower, about halfway up the wall.This was a very good decision and a great way to build up my own security system over time. Best of all, its professional, and wireless - Living in an apartment never got better!***** this is an update below ******The camera has been working so well, I actually purchased a refurb one from Amazon, and it also worked awesome, and I saved a ton. For those that are interested, I also have these camera email me when there is motion. Since I use HOTMAIL, I thought I would post the configuration for them ....Dlink Security Camera - DCS-932LThe camera works with security software from DLINK, but the camera can also email images when there is an even, such as motion. This is particularly useful when you only have email access and want to check up on your house, or whatever our camera is watching.Dlink Local Camera LoginSetup>EmailSMTP Server Address: smtp.live.comSMTP Server Port: 587 (default of 25 will not work)Sender E-mail Address: ** your [email protected] address **Receiver E-mail Address: ** your [email protected] address **User Name: ** your [email protected] address **Password: ** Your email access password **Use SSL-TLS/STARTTLS (No) SSL-TLS (NO - blank) STARTTLS (YES)***** Update 1/15/2014 *****I am now up to four cameras after I purchased a condo and moved out of the apartment. I still very much like the items. They are fairly simply to install. I used to use the full recording software on my PC, but I have since found that letting the cameras email when there is motion is simpler and just as effective. Further, I have installed battery back up power supplies on all cameras so that if the power goes out, the cameras can still record and email me. Also, here in Idaho, its gets really cold, and that doesn't seem to affect one camera which I placed under an eve out of the rain overlooking my front door. Also, I wanted to mention that the camera actually caught someone trying to break into my home about 2 months ago. The would be burglar gave up when he attempted to enter and noticed by dead bolt locks, but I got some awesome images of him and have forwarded them to the local police which might be helpful in other neighborhood break-ins. The only complain I have is that it would be nice if there was an extension for the power cord available from D-Link. I did wire my own low voltage power cord extension using speaker wire here on Amazon, but an nice clean extension, from D Link, would not only be profitable for them, but easier for those that don't have wiring experience. Also, there are occasional issues with ActiveX and Java, which are 3rd Party software add ons that are required by D Link to make these cameras 100% functional. There are work arounds, but again, for those not versed in software work arounds it would be nice to use another platform rather than rely on these other companys. But even with those small issues, this is by far one of the best purchases I have ever had on Amazon.

Super Kundenservice War leider mit UK Stecker aber auf Anfrage wurde kostenlos ein Adapter geliefert und läuft super

I picked this camera because I used to own one. The setup wizard was unable to add the camera to my dlink account but luckily I was able to do so using the mydlink phone apps. Initially there was an issue with my order but the seller quickly took care of it. Will buy from this seller again if I need another camera.

questa telecamera e' stata presa per uso domestico sia in situazione diurna che notturna e' molto visibile e chiaro il segnale. infatti ne ho acquistata un altra.

Me costó comprar varias cámaras de otras marcas hasta que he dado con esta. Por ponerle un único "pero" no tiene para micro sd, por lo demás fenomenal, puedes controlar el nivel de ruido para que te avise la cámara y también la detección de presencia. Muy fácil de usar y de configurar y una vez configurada, yo la apago a veces y al ponerla de nuevo conserva todos los parámetros. Un 10 también a la aplicación del móvil, la uso con iphone 5c y va perfecta, rápida, intuitiva y muy fácil de usar.

This item has a UK power plug.
