Hi, I recently bought a FI9821P camera second hand.
I have about 9 Foscam FI9821 camera's running so I know a little bit about them.
This one has firmware 1.4.1.5 and 1.11.0.26, no plugin installed.
When trying to install the plugin it comes up with plugins.gpk. I don't know what to do with that but I thought, this issue will solve itselve by doing all the upgrades.
I tried to upgade up the ladder and the first one should be 1.11.1.19.
Trying that results in "upgrade fail".
Also the next one in line of the foscam upgrade letter gave the same result.

So I tried to by-pass the plugin issue by using VMS from Foscam.
This one finds the camera but in the process of adding it, it says : useraccount blocked.
Strange, because all my other camera's are there.

In the camera settings via IE i found that in device status there is no information of the logged in IP and acoount.
But I am logged in....from my laptop in the same network with an IP adress.

It doesn't change anything when I am using LAN or WIFI.

I think this camera is hanging between upgrades or something like that and that the current firmware is so old that it won't even work with IE anymore.
BTW also the searchtool doesn't succeed in doing the upgrade.
My question is: how do i get this camera to accept the upgrade and...perhaps someone knows if I am using the right firmware.


I really hope someone can help me.
