    Foscam F18910W Alarm Setting "Can't Parse" Error

    Hello--yes, the camera is ancient, but it worked fully years ago with all options enabled. Dusted it off and had to do a reset as I forgot the password. Updated to the latest firmware, camera is wired, static IP assigned, port forward enabled, email enable (and tested), ftp enabled (and tested)...

    8-camera system feedback requested

    I recall reading posts from you and others about that. Was hoping for a starting point. If I get a 1TB drive (c:) and it only stores 5 days of recording and I decided to get a second drive, will Blue Iris handle recording to the additional drive (d:)? Any thoughts on NOT using the more...

    I looked at Dell.com using an Intell i5 and it is $550. Where can I find a system for $300? So I am not over-powering my computer, how much RAM and HD space would you suggest for the 8 cameras with 24/7 recording for 1 week?

    It is a Dell Inspiron 570 I've had sitting in the closet: Windows 7 64-bit, AMD Athlon II X2 250 (3GHz), 8GB RAM, 500GB HD.

    8-camera system feedback requested

    I will take a look at Blue Iris. I was hoping not to purchase another computer. I'll have to boot-up the computer, get the specs and report back. Hopefully they will be okay and/or the motherboard will support the CPU upgrade. Also, how much HD space would I need for the 8 cameras recording...

    Thank you for the quick reply and feedback. Any thoughts on software suggestion and if I can use the Windows 7 computer? Should I stick with the Linksys routers?

    Newbie trying to put cameras around my house. I have Charter internet with the plan on connecting it to a Linksys WRT1900ACS router. Feeds a desktop computer used from internet browsing, Netflix streaming, etc. Feeds a Linksys LGS308p POE router about 75 feet away. Feeds a Windows 7 8MB RAM...
