iCam Support / Wansview W2 - set-up authorization error - i'm stumped!?!
« on: January 05, 2017, 03:20:06 AM »
As an iCamsource (and iCam) user for the past 4 years, I have had 4x FI8910W's all running smoothly without problem. iCamsource runs on my iMac and iCam on my iPhone, all over my home Wifi Network.
This week I decided to add a new external camera to the system, I ordered a Wansview W2 (specs at the bottom of the page), used the proper URL's and set it up just like the existing foscam's, but no matter what I do I just get a 401 webcam authorization error in iCamsource, telling me the u/n and p/w to the Wansview is wrong.
I can access the camera pictures through my browser and I've tested it on the Wansview app, and it works without problem. I've changed and changed back the camera u/n and p/w, reset them, reset the camera totally etc, but nothing seems to work.
I've tried to get a working picture form this page: http://skjm.com/icam/mjpeg_test.php but none of them gives me a response, all URL's error.
The wansview uses H.264/MJPEG so I assumed (perhaps incorrectly?) that it would work with iCamsource.
Any advice would be welcomed.
Many thanks
