I want to install a couple of POE cams in the near future. But don't have some of the details how to do it, thus I have been reading on the forums and asking a couple of people about what I need and how to set the wiring up. Remember I am a senior-senior and what is simple to most of you isn't...
Thanks for your time and reply Nayr. I don't record video just stream it to my pc and image view it from my iphone a little. View it live when I am on my pc.
I looked on my ethernet broadband data usage and on this computer it showed I had used 935 Gb of date in 30 days just on this ethernet pc...
This will seem like a dumb question Nayr, but that is the way I learn stuff sometimes...ask, even as old as I am. If you run your cameras on wires will it increase your monthly ISP Gb data?
I'm on AT&T DSL. They keep raising my internet rate trying to push me to uVerse a little cheaper and a...

Yesterday I watched by RA as a real IP camera geek turned my el-cheapo IP cam upside down, sideways, and round and round trying to get it to display video. I mean he worked long and hard and didn’t want to give up even when the RA time expired. When the updated firmware didn’t work...
Randy...
Went there, opened it, but it isn't showing but a max of 5 IP's. I kept clicking on "Refreseh" and some of them would
change, but 5 is the max that will display.
I am attaching a screen 2 screen shots (108 is the Foscam that will not boot to video live). Also am attaching a wifi scan...
All of you guys are great helping an old codger learn stuff and stay busy. I have two places where I want to add more cams and they are not close
to power...why I was thinking about options. Thanks for instilling patience in my mind which sometimes races ninety to nothing.
RandyTsuch,
The DHCP Client Table is "Inactive;" clicking on it does nothing. IP address in that box is for the static set .../..././104 camera that the amcrest tech set up for me.
The only options I have there are clicking "Disable" DMZ, maybe clicking on the 104 camera's MAC address.
I right...
Randy, Thank you so much for (all of you) taking all the time to help me. But I think this time your reply was out of my comprehension range. I don't have a clue about what your technical description means. I know you tried your best to make it easy for me to understand, perhaps I am too old or...
My router is old...a Linksys E2000. On the Setup page Automatic Configuration - DHCP is selected, and under server
DHCP Server is enabled. I have looked upside down and sideways but my router doesn't list the devices.
But in the Foscam IP config DHCP is unchecked in network configuration. I...
Randytsuch,
Both the Foscam and Amcrest IP Config Tools list the IP addresses. No I do not see any of them trying to use the same IP number.
I know how to get into my router but don't know where to look for the devices...what tab description would they be listed under.
And I told you that I ran...
Thank you guys so much for sharing your knowledge and advice. I assume you all can see my response and actions/results to your suggestions below.
So I disconnected the power from all of the amcrest cameras. Waited about ten minutes.
Next I plugged in the power of one of the Foscam cams...
Thank you Fastb for your kind reply.
As above in my earlier posts, I had 4 Foscams (model nos. F18905W and F18906W) all performing well (to my eyes) on my wifi (Foscam IP Config tool) and showing IP addresses (Having superb color, clarity, and all of the video bells and whistles are not a...
