iCam Support / Foscam FI8904W WiFi setting up connection issues ? Please help !
« on: August 27, 2011, 12:20:14 AM »Trying to setup the Foscam FI8904W Outdoor Wifi cam and having issue connecting wifi. I have everything just about setup but can't get the share key setup screen working. I'm a mac user and have comcast + Netgear N300 wireless router. I also have a Cisco wireless-N WVC80N, but I'll get to that next.
Following the Foscam manual (mac user section) and set everything up like it says.
- Got the wire & wifi antenna all screwed in
- IP camera tool installed and the IP cams http:// number/link
- Using the iCam setup page for wireless cams I added this into my Icam computer app on my macbook pro and can see the video working great. Problem is I can't see anything once I take the ethernet jack out of the router or Foscam camera.....
I'm not sure what I'm missing, but I've found a few things that I have no idea how to find. First where do I find a share key ? I've log into my Netgear settings and I don't see anything that looks like this.
Next I'm reading on the Foscam site (not sure if this has anything to do with the iCam setup and wifi connection) I can't be on N and need to be setup on b/g. Again I have no idea what this means and guessing it is some sort of different frequency ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated !!!
