Thanks, I do have an alarm system but I don't have it calling out. I believe it saved me recently and scared someone off. It all works, just doesn't call out. I have a phone line now but I've heard that Brinks can't be programmed to a different number/company for cheaper service. I never...
I forgot about this site, but want to get more serious with my camera setup. So long story short, I have 2 older 8918w Foscam cameras that do OK to see whats going on but are only 480p. I also have a 1080p winbook POE bullet camera from micro center that I tested but never did anything with.

Hmm no progress, tried BI on a different PC in case any port forwarding was messing things up. Then I tried the Update button from its own software. Now the camera is unresponsive and I cant connect to it lol
Hi, I always hear Blue Iris is the best. I'm going to be adding more than 1 camera so I'm going to buy BI to manage everything. I have a Microcenter close so I decided to try their WinBook brand cameras. Not much info on them but Microcenter is close enough to return if they suck. The 720p...
Hey guys,
I've had a couple of indoor Foscam 480p cams forever, 8918W I believe is the model. They suck but they've been alright to stick in a window and see what's going on while i'm at work. I've had one outside for almost 2 years under my porch and other than getting a little discolored it...
