iCam Support / Re: Troubleshooting 102 - Source Connection Error

« on: March 22, 2013, 06:02:47 PM »

I have the same IP changing situation. Pretty much everyday it changes one camera's IP or both, usually by one digit. I stop the camera, change the IP, and then it works for a day or two and then another change happens. How can I fix this problem?

Please send a message how I can fix this please!

Thanks,
Nelson

Thanks for the great feedback, dkb52.

There is actually a setting that you can enable in the iCamSource that should help you with your frequently-IP-changing situation. We try not to post it publicly since it isn't necessary for most users and because it also puts an additional strain on our server.

I believe Lorena sent you the instructions for how to enable the setting, so check your e-mail if you haven't seen it already.

Thanks again for the post.

IP Cam Config Support / Re: Foscam troubles

« on: March 08, 2013, 09:03:47 PM »

I'm able to connect my Foscam cameras to IcamSource when they are hard wired to my router, but when I unplug them...No dice.

Strangely, Icam on my iphone 5 records motion events (while wired) but won't show the cameras live. Its stuck on an old frame from a few nights ago.

When I unplug the network cable from the camera, and try and reconnect, it can't find the camera.


I've tried advancing the IP address by one but it doesn't do the trick. Also, after I unplug the network cable to the router and launch IP camera tool. I don't see the IP address anymore.

Suggestions?

IP Cam Config Support / Foscam troubles

« on: March 06, 2013, 10:00:40 PM »

I have 3 Foscam FI8918W and I'd like them to work wirelessly with icam...I've tried looking at the forum and haven't been able to get them up and running.

The cameras come with a CD that I followed..I was able to get them working on the computer with their IP camera tool. I also tried running IP Cam config but they aren't coming up at all.

Any suggestions?

thanks,
N
