I login via the direct IP adres. But I have good news! Somehow I managed to get the camera working and now I have an image!

BTW, there is no SD card installed, because I want to record onto my Synology nas.

Hello everybody, I finally figured out how to change the IP adres to the right one. I can now log in to the camera and I have already changed the default password. When I want to live view the camera, I see nothing but a black screen. I have downloaded the safari plugin and forwarded ports...
