I finally got the security camera working but I am really disappointed.

I was hoping to access it from my desktop computer in my office with the
camera mounted outside on a deck by the main door. If heard the
doorbell when in the office I was hoping I could quickly access the
image on the computer to see who it was.

Well, no can do.

It's software (MyDLink) is no supported for Firefox. So, I figured I'd
install it on the Windows 10 browser "Edge". After trying
unsuccessfully to download the software I found out that it's not
supported on Edge either. It's not a Firefox or Edge issue. It's
MyDlink's software that no longer works in either browser.

I got it running .... on my android cell phone but in the time it takes
for the app to open and show an image I could invite whoever was at the
door in and make him/her a cup of coffee.

Waste of time. I am really ****ed because the packaging genius that
designed the box the camera came in must be evil. It was like a safe.
I ended up destroying the box to get it open so now I can't return the
stupid camera. Oh well. It wasn't that much anyway ... $70 ... and it
gave me something to do for a day and a half.

I have a large window behind my chair in the office. I think I'll go to
AutoZone and buy a trucker's mirror and mount it outside on the side of
the house. All I'd have to do is turn around, look at the mirror and
I'd see who was at the door. Simple.



You might try searching for microsoft apps or third party windows
applications that will run dlink ip cameras. I found 1
application that works with my cameras. This whole ip camera
thing leaves something to be desired as far as compatibility is
concerned. Good luck, you're making progress.
