I need an outdoor camera that I can use to set up a public webcam on my website. Can I access from outside with only internet browser and ip address?

Yes, the camera has a pretty decent set of tools/services/options built into it. It will be necessary to forward the IP ports on your router/firewall in order to view it. You will want to purchase the Blue Iris software to go along with this camera anyway for advanced DVR recording. It will also let you stream live as well as playback from archive. The Blue Iris software will be much easier to work with rather than the camera software. The picture quality is amazing.

In web access from remote I couldn't get access to the sub stream or at least couldn't figure it out yet. It allows me to get access to the main stream. However when I access the main stream it automatically goes back to mjpeg from h.264 and the quality is not so good. If you want to use direct streaming foscam is better. Now I use Blue Iris for streaming. It is amazing. It allows me to mix up cameras. In a client location I installed 18 cameras and we use 6 of those to put them in public site with public user name and password. If you want to check it out how it works here is the link: http://www.petcoral.com/WebCams.aspx. It works from almost any device.

Yes, but check out the Hikvision 3mp first. I bought 20 of these before trying the Hikvision. I've now switched to the Hikvision.

That question depends on how much networking knowledge you have. On the same subnet yes only ip and ie is needed. From the Internet you will need a dynamic dns service if you don't have a static ip. If you do, then just open the appropriate port you chose in the camera config. You can create different accounts on the actual camera firmware and give permissions for viewing. This camera is not a plug and play solution for internet viewing. It is possible with setup though. I work in IT btw.

ACTUALLY this camera when you try to connect from outside your networkyou connect to external site with aprinted username and password on the camera and you are online with itfor internal use you have to specify a static ip to connect to throught web or mobile app.

No. This camera must be connected to a dvr. You may be looking for an ip camera.

The camera can be connected via a cat5 LAN network, meaning if you have internet service at your garage you could connect the camera to the internet via a router. Some service provider internet modem are also an integrated router you would have to check. Otherwise the camera could be connected to a computer LAN/Network and connect directly to a computer, without at least that the camera would be useless.

It can be viewed from anywhere with Internet access. All you need is that IP address of the router that the camera is connected to, and the port associated with the camera (e.g. 8090)

Don't know about that but you might want to try contacting support on wansview website, also there are some utilities available for download there. http://wansview.net/tools-support.htmlOne thing though, I was able to set it up without using the installation disc.What you want to do is first connect the camera to your router via lan cable, then in your router admin site find out the IP the camera was assigned and then access the camera using that IP. I hope this helps.

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.

This being an analog camera needs a display card installed into a computer so that the image can be displayed on the monitor. From there I don't know how you can capture the image and send it via the internet but I suppose it can be done. However, why go to all of this trouble when you can purchase an IP camera (that has a noticeably better image) and utilizing it's IP address send it to any computer in the world. Additionally, the IP camera is the same price but also admittedly, it is somewhat harder to set up but with all of the help on the net you can do it....I was able to. Good luck but you really won't need it to get some nice video of the traffic in front of your home using 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.

This is not sold as an exterior video camera. That said, if the area is really sheltered from rain (like a porch), it probably would be OK. Really depends on where you live. If you live in a foggy area, I wouldn't use this outside at all. This camera is NOT weather-proofed, so using it outside might void any product guarantee. You can talk OR listen, but not at the same time--I think

This would give you multiple network connections. A internet (ex cable) router would be needed to access the cameras from outside the building.

The only software you might need is the IP address finder. You could download that free from X10. All of the operating software is part of the camera. Initial setup for your first camera can be challenging if you are not an IP person, but once complete the camera takes care of itself very nicely and will do everything advertised (and more).

Yes you can access it via your web browser, however if you want the best experience use the IP Camera Viewer app - it's worth it.

This camera requires A) Power. You need to be able to plug into an outlet. And B) an Internet connection where the camera is. The camera (powered) is connected to the Internet router and then you can access that remotely from anywhere in the world.

It has a built-in web browser - just log in via your phone, tablet, or computer - http://IPADDRESS. http://blog.coultard.com/2012/01/how-to-configure-easyn-ip-web-camera.html
