Yesterday I watched by RA as a real IP camera geek turned my el-cheapo IP cam upside down, sideways, and round and round trying to get it to display video. I mean he worked long and hard and didn’t want to give up even when the RA time expired. When the updated firmware didn’t work I suggested that he had done his very best and encouraged him to the best of my ability and all of my senior years of living and learning that all that one can do only so much.
My evaluation is that the two Foscams that I have should be used as boat anchors. Even though I received over three years of wifi service out of them, had reset them umpteen times, and purchased about 6 power supplies for them.
It is still true. You get what you pay for, and I am still having trouble learning that truth. If anyone reading this is interested in security cameras, spend more and buy good ones that are recommended by the real knowledgeable a skilled camera geeks who are running this forum.
Thanks again Looney2ns for all that you did, and also to the other geeks that gave advice and suggestions. I am most impressed with (all of you) your tech skill and knowledge of IP cameras and your perseverance on helping someone on the forums. It meant a great deal to me.
