    Any decent free/low cost IP Cam apps for iPad?

    We've just got a Floureon IP Camera installed and I'm looking for an app with which to view it on iPad. The app recommended for use with it is CamHi. It's functional but not great. I tried IP Cam View Lite but that's not much better. Is Blue Iris the only decent option? Such a shame that TinyCam...

    Can I use a PoE adapter on my IP Cam and physical installation query

    Finding somewhere for the splitter shouldn't be a problem. Though if necessary, I'm guessing I could just buy the injector, keep that in the house near the power socket and use a passive splitter cable at the camera? With regards to the screws I pictured, should they be ok? It was bought on...

    Can I use a PoE adapter on my IP Cam and physical installation query

    Thanks for your input. Unfortunately it's outside the return window now so I'll have to hope this one is sufficient. Sorry, I can't quite follow what you mean about the POE adapter, are you saying I don't need the TP Link?

    Can I use a PoE adapter on my IP Cam and physical installation query

    I've recently bought a Floureon PTZ Dome Cameraand I would appreciate some advice on how best to install it.

    Turret or Dome?

    Hi guys, I'm looking at the IPC-HDW4231EM-AS or IPC-HDBW4231E-AS. As far as my noob eye tells me, the main difference between the two is that the Dome (as seems to be the case with most Domes) offers vandal resistance (the Dome also seems to have Audio in/out and Alarm in/out). This seems to be...

    I just had an online chat with a sales rep at Use-IP. I was interested in Hikvision IP cam and NVR and he/she told me that as of today Hikvision do not want their products sold to the end user; only to installers. All my research had to led me to Hikvision being one of the best and also within...
