Any issues with Comcast Business class Internet (modem), as far as being able to view remotely, meaning away from network the camera is running on?

Nope, just enable port forwarding for the port that Blue Iris wants. You get that under web cast under options. A little intimidating at first to get things going, I was frustrated until I figured out how to do things. You can get a hold of me at www.sumpterpinesrvpark.com, email the owners. I currently have 31 cameras, all HD version.

I have not had any issues viewing my cameras while visiting in other areas or states so far. Seams to work well. I am on a different server other than Comcast.

If you want to see it in action now, go to www.sumpterpinesrvpark.com and mouse over the HOME button, then mouse over WEBCAMS and then go to to Live Action Cams (Public cams outside park). Use user Timothy pw Pinter to log in. If using IE, allow activeX controls. If any other browser, all you need. You can click ona camera and on the left side. This is the webcast feature of Blue Iris, all built in.

I have written software for over 45 years, retired now. This is by far the best software I have ever bought. I have 2 licenses for it. The most comprehensive package, can be complex, just have to take things slow. I can help out if need be.

You need a dvr with Internet access to connect the camera to most dvr now have that feature. If you want just a camera you need to install an IP CAMERA.

It won't work without internet access for the remote camera to work, since you have to run your computer 24/7 at the location. Save your money and stay away from this security system. Do a little research, and buy a quality unit.

No. Ip cameras rely on being connected to the internet to send out the signal so you can see it from a different internet connection.

I feel this is a very good choice for simple use and is quite easy to set up! My set is set up without paying Comcast the extra money for digital viewing and still has a good picture. Also, my set is still on the factory settings.

No, it does not need to be hooked up to a computer. It works through your router and ip address. At home you would view it through a local ip address. Remotely you need to setup a dns page that will link to your dynamic ip. I use Dtdns. With router permissions most of it can be setup through the cameras admin page.

Yes! And you'll be able to write off Comcast's "rental" of the Telephony Modem - which in just a few short months will pay for itself! Be sure to hang onto ALL your receipts - including the one you received for returning Comcast's rental box......Comcast FREQUENTLY "looses" those records - and you will be obligated to spend time with them, proving you have returned their equipment and that you purchased your own equipment! Not certain what you are meaning when you say "local control" tho. I've always owned my own equipment - and have never had problems with any of it. I do appreciate the fact I don't have to pay them for their "rental equipment"! If you'll let me know what you mean by local control, I'll try to answer the question.

Just plug in a VGA monitor and your all set for live viewing or playback viewing. I have several at branch locations that are plugged into the router so I can view the cameras live from anywhere that has an internet connection. I found this to be an easy product to setup and use.

The only way you can remotely watch the cameras are with an internet connection. The cameras have a dvr box that must be connected to the internet. Without doing so you can only see live images on a screen

You need to setup your modem for port forwarding. Also make sure the port is open via your firewall software. Send me an email and when I get a free moment I can team-view your computer and your modem and show you how to do port forwarding. Also depending on the port, your work firewall may not allow outside connections to the port. In that case you need to setup a web server to view all the cameras with a port that your work firewall will allow. Also I can show you how to set it up via wireless. crr.guy at gmail dot com

Yes, except without Internet access you will not be able to remotely view the video. The cameras will wirelessly transmit the video to the recorder and you will be able to locally view the video.

Hardwired camera via coax. I have not been successful in accessing the unit via network at all and I have been unable to talk to a real tech support person.

Yes you can. With cameras setup on network and app on phone, or through website you can view remotely.

So Comcast functions normally with this remote? Like using the guide, recording/playing/rewind/pause DVR, etc. Want to be sure before I buy this. Thanks!!

Dear Paul, change the WIFI encyption authenication with our "Eyesee Finder", please come to www.szgeeya.com/ipc for related software. Please know that the camera shall not be too much near the wifi router, like dark under the lamp. But if long time video recording or surveillance, we would advise wired connection. Further questions please feel free to contact us.

Not sure of your question, but as long as I've been in business I've never seen a webcam that can't be used for the purposes you described although I want to be sure I know what "access the webcam for home photos and videos" means to you.

Talk to your service provider regarding Internet ip if real and options for port blocked or not. (Canyouseeme.org) open port check tool. The way it's set up is continuing recording with pictures taking images when motion occurs. My opinion keep as originally set up works out fine. Image quality good for amount spent also lighting use yellow led or yellow type bulbs not white best for night vision image quality.
