Trendnet just did some maintenance this weekend. Now I can't remote acess the camera mangement interface on my mobile browser??

Same problem here. It seems now you can only manage the camera from the same network/lan/wlan, meaning the computer or your cell phone and the camera need to connect to the same router at home.

I cannot explain a trendnet maintenance issue unless you installed new s/w in the camera. If accessing from outside your local network, (ie cell network) consider checking for a network IP address change by your provider at the camera location. With this in mind, we get regular reports that providers (comcast, time-warner) have been changing customer network connections to a network with blocked ports. You can use a port checking tool to make sure the port from the outside world is still open. If a previously fine working setup is accessible using a locally connected device, but no longer from the outside world you may have to work with the ISP. They may want to establish a maintenance contract to fix it. The IPS modem/router must be set to "bridge mode" if you use your own router for Wi-Fi and port forwarding. The Web Enabled Remote Monitioring Service (werms.com) provide image history services that do not depend on routing and port-forwarding. Live-view is great, but can be flaky. The image history is really helpful. The Trendnet live view does not work on iPads and iPhones as there is no Java support. Some of the admin/config pages will fail also. Also, consider recycling power completely is a previously well-working stuff fails. Do not change settings to hastily. good luck.

Time to update. The network bridging features only works with CamRanger firmware 6 and up and the CamRanger app 2.0 and up.

There are free an paid apps that work with the camera. There isn't a Wansview native app but they use common communication protocols. And you can always use a native browser as well.

I agree. The site is down. However, my C601 P2P is still working. One a month, I reboot my PC the reestablish a link the the camera. You might try that. lock219

I have 3 cameras and I haven't seen any issues. I only look at my cameras 3-5 times per day so I may have just missed the issue. Are you using different port numbers for each camera? Are you using myfoscam.org as your host? Did you add the IP address of your cameras to your router manually?

The camera needs to be set up initially while it is hardwired to your modem. Once it is set up "hardwired" you can disconnect and unplug and setup "wirelessly". Perhaps that is why you are receiving an error message. Also, the username and/or password are case sensitive. Hope that helps.

I bought the ip cam viewer app and was able to set it up see it on the same network but once I leave the network it wont work. Something about the ip address not being static but always changing. I was unsuccessful in setting up the record either since I'm not an IT guy. I think unless you really know networking it's pretty complicated for a noob like myself. There are couple of free ip camera viewers out there so check it out. I'm able to view, pan, and tilt with the one I got. Just wish I knew how to take advantage of the full potential. Sorry I couldn't have been a better help.

1. The camera is not safe because it can only use http. If you plan to view from outside your home you have to setup port forwarding in your router.2. Yes, username "admin" and password is empty. You should change it right away.3. Yes you can change it.

I have never tried to access the other menus. Or at least I don't remember as it's been a awhile. The camera defaults to camcorder once it's turned on. You might want to cycle through the menu a few times to see if you can locate the other commands that you're interested in.

Yes, IF you have a Web Browser, Network and a Router (For the TRENDnet Camera to connect to) However, I've been disappointed with mine. Allow me to suggest http://foscam.us

Hello, This kit didn't include any way to trigger the camera remotely. It might be possible with some other accessory, but I am not familiar with one.

If you bought a Linksys router than call Linksys help, they are obligated to get up and running, even if you bought another brand they should do the same. There are so many setting in the camera and router that the ordinary guy can not figure it out. Maybe type in the IP address of the router, then use admin for the sign for the router, this should get to the pages that you can change settings, good luck. I have two of these cameras. They are the worse ones made. Good luck, Steve

I think...and I can't really remember...you have to click your wifi off after the setup process and switch the switch on the back of the camera if I remember correctly. Here's a number to the seedonk/isecurity 18002932168. Good luck!!

Have to be subscribed to their isecurity+ software service, like $7 a camera per month. Don't think you can get messaging to smart phone/tablet, etc without their service ( isecurity+). Then you have instant messaging 24x7. Seems their system down last two days, can't even get on website.

HelloNot without port redirections & static WAN IP addresses on your router, or use of dynamic DNS.There are apps for iPhone but I'm not sure about other phones.I really wouldn't recommend this camera anyway, the light/dark auto-gain issue gives too many false alarms - even when viewing & the sun comes out, the picture flashes rapidly.Cheap product cheaply made. Avoid if possible.Cheers,Ashley

I tried using the smartphone app for android and just could not get it to work (Evo 4G), an issue that seemed to be common based on forum posts. I just downloaded IP Cam Viewer from the Play store and it worked flawlessly after a simple setup. So if you run into the same issue, just grab that app and you're gtg.
