How do you add a camera to BI 4.x that's going thru a network repeater?
I just purchased a Foscam Repeater to reach a difficult area. Thru the Foscam app, I can see it.
Thru the Foscam Search tool on PC I dont see it.
Thru my router I dont see it. (probably because its going thru the repeater?)

Asus Blue Cave router, using Foscam Network repeater.

A device connected to a repeater will appear on the network the same way as if there was no repeater.
This setup will cause you lots of grief. Spend a bit more and have someone run the ethernet for you.
Avoid foscam like the plague.
