iCam Support / Re: D-Link DCS-930L & Netgear WNR2000v3 router

« on: February 15, 2012, 10:31:40 PM »

I was able to get the DCS-930L to work, i.e. produce images viewable on mylink (the D-link) web site. But, the connection kept dropping.

As with the Foscam that I tried months ago, either because of my inexperience, ineptness or hardware/software problems the arrangement just was not reliable and simple enough for my wife's effective use.

We wantto monitor my wife's 105 and 95 year old parents, so she could roam around a little.

Alas, I gave up and returned the 930L. Perhaps I'll try again later with upgraded equipment. Maybe a "beefier" router and more expensive camera.

For now, I think I can set up an iPod touch as a WiFi IPCamera and get an adequate picture sans sound.

Thanks for all the input.
This is a fine forum and SKJM email tech support is superbly responsive and helpful.

Yes. I Wired the DCS-930L to the Netgear and it connects with the router. Then, I'm able to see what the camera sees in Browsers and in mylink.

D-Link has a Mac setup wizard
This uTube video is a very clear step-by-step on how to use the Mac Wizard

including how to activate wireless
but the wizard I find to download does not provide that option.

Yes, we're running 10.5 and 10.7

thanks for the response

I'm not getting the Netgear WNR2000v3 router to see the DCS-930L wirelessly

The DCS-930L mylink set up wizard vs. 1.0.06 beta (mac) does not give me the network setup window.

So, I think it's premature to expect iCam to connect to the camera.

I had difficulty with a Foscam camera months ago and returned it.

So, I'm wondering if perhaps the Netgear router isn't very friendly to my intentions.
Can you advise and/or recommend a more compatible router?

Shared experience and suggestions appreciated
