    Home set up advice using Foscam

    I had another query as well. When the HDW5231R-Z is attached to the PFA137 junction box, will it work ok on a vertical wall? Anyone have a pic in that setup to try and work out how discrete or otherwise it is

    Ok, I COULD run ethernet to the rear cam but I won't be. Its not worth the benefits to me, simple as that. I am prepared to use something that has downsides - so will accept the fact that even a good quality WiFi cam might have issues. I can very easily get power to the location but not...

    I certainly don't know better, that's why I joined these forums :) Just had a read of a few threads but a gentle pointer would be great. Happy to spend a little more ($20 more would be fine - I am in the UK though) if I can get what I need. Perhaps the model number of the Dahua or Hilvision...

    Having never had my own kit before, I have been quite impressed with them. If you say they are over priced, please suggest an alternative at the same or less money.. Needs to be outdoor, wifi and discrete

    I didn't want to invest a lot in this, so went for Foscam and in my testing they seem to be ok for my needs. I have been testing using the Synology and surveillance station. If I use tinycam, or the foscam app to view the feed the images are smooth. If I view on surveillance station or through...

    Ok, I am new here so hope I am asking this in the right forum. I have a small house and am going to fit two basic Foscam cams to cover front (fi9900p) and back (fi9800p). These will both be connected with WiFi which I have tested and seems to be pretty stable. Now, I am thinking about...
