Does this camera come with a free service so you can view with your phone from outside your network. I have a Uniden system that does not this.

There are a few free apps for Android phones; IPCamViewer, Foscam also has an app, and some others. I have the paid version of IPCamViewer just for some extra features... It's worth it, it's only a few dollars. If you want some awesome DVR software on the cheap, get BlueIris. I have 3 Foscam cams running and recording on it. Hope that helps.

You don't have to pay for a service to view the camera from outside your home network. Easy from any Internet connected computer, tablet, or phone

Not yet, I am not able to figure out how to get the system to view from outside my network.

No. You have to download the software from their site to view it on your computer. I just use the web viewer. This camera is junk tho. It works when it wants to then it constantly drops the internet connection.

These answers are wrong. You do not need internet access and can view the cameras using local (LAN) IP addresses.

This is not a network camera. It must be connected to a DVR system like a Q-see or Swann or Nightowl. If those DVR systems allow, you can view them on your cell phone. It is wired and must be connected to a DVR via a video/power combination cable.

I use my Samsung Note 2 to view all my security cameras. Using AT&T; I can watch my home from anywhere there is AT&T; service which is the whole point of having a security system. I use uCamPro and IP Cam Viewer for my Foscam wireless cameras and Ipolis mobile for my Samsung wired DVR cameras all view-able using AT&T; 3 and 4G. The uCamPro app is more expensive, approx 10 bucks vs the $4 IPCam Viewer but I like the Ucam better. There is also a free vs of IP Cam. Hope this helps.

This camera is compatable with most any wifi wireless network. It is not designed to work with proprietary security systems. This is incredibly easy to setup and use. You simply log on to the camera with your Iphone or Android device. Register it with the phone, add the Belkin app to you phone, and you are done. Their free cloud service is not the best but it is good and free. Adding cameras is simple. I have 6 of these and they are great.

No. The camera system works whether or not connected to the internet. However, I had a bad customer relations experience when one of the cameras went bad, Defender would not replace it. They referred me to the camera manufacturer, who did not respond to calls or emails.

I think you can. When we are at home we can check the cameras on our tablets and cell phones over our home network. Still can't get it to work at outside business.

As long as your camera is hooked to Ethernet, you can view it from your tablet or smart phone any where you have an internet connection. I can be in South America and view my house in USA, as long as my camera is plugged into Ethernet.

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.

The camera is only as secure as your home network. You must be somewhat tech savvy to set up the camera. If you plan on using the mobile connection, you may have to set up a port forward in order to log on remotely. These are very good cameras for the price. Just don't expect much out of the box.

Hi, Thank you for your interest to our product. Yes, as long as the set up is done correctly and your remote device have internet access, you will be able to see the image from your phone not being in the house. Best Regards, IreneCustomer Service

Yes. You can remotely Access your camera and all of its functions. You only need to properly configure your Dynamic IP service and you are ready to go. Regards.

I have Android phone, but I believe you need Foscam Surveillance Pro. Not sure if there is a free version, but for only $4.99. Well worth the money. And there is a way to set the cameras so you can view them all at once. Since I'm not familiar with the iPhone apps, I would suggest to call Foscam customer service at 800-930-0949. However, you could be on hold for a long time. But once they get on the phone, they are quite helpful. I hope this helps.

No, but it is a crap system. eats micro sd cards like they are free. Be prepared to reset at least every other day and deal with uniden customer service for hours on end.

Use the foscam viewer app and download it for free from app store. You dont need port forwarding to view within the same network connected to the camera.
