iCam Support / Re: Webcam system works for 1 or 2 hours

« on: June 18, 2012, 10:52:30 AM »

Haven't tried that as I am at work & the source computer is at home. I'm sure that I don't lose the internet connection as the IP address is the same after I receive the "source connection error" message.  I usually check the IP address when I get home after work to see if it has changed.

My computer is configured not to go into sleep mode & I can see that my dialup connection has not been lost on days I get the "source connection error" message.  Any other suggestions? I am assuming I have everything set up properly as all my cameras are working for at least some period of time.  Several times my icam will work, then the "source connection error" message appears, then a couple of hours later the cameras are working again.

I tried icam a couple of years ago & had the same problem I'm having now.  I guess I thought with the updated version the "source connection eroor" issue would have been resolved.

then I get the "source connection error" message the rest of the day, even though I've done nothing but view the cams on my iphone-3g.

Any suggestions?

p.s. I have a dial-up connection.

iCam Support / Re: Auto start not working...

« on: October 27, 2009, 09:18:38 AM »

Seems a little involved as I'm kind of a computer novice...any thoughts to simplifying this in the future? I have another webcam program that all I have to do is choose the startup option in the preference area & my cams turn on everytime I start my computer.

iCam Support / Auto start not working...

« on: October 26, 2009, 09:17:55 AM »

have 3 Microsoft 3000vx webcams (windows xp sp2, webcam drivers recently updated). Would like to use the Auto Start function but when I click on Auto Start in the preference area  my cams need to be closed down & restarted again to get them functioning properly again. If I do not choose the auto start function everything works ok.

Any help would be appreciated as it seems to take a long time to manually start 3 cameras.

Thanks

Thanks for the input.

Do you know of any wireless routers that work with dial-up.  Seems the ones I have looked at all require a dsl or cable connection.

Thanks

Do you know if an IP camera will work with a dial-up connection & if so which ones are compatible with icam? I need a very basic camera hopefully easy to set up (using window xp).

Thanks

Looking for a camera that I can place in a room where my computer is not located, & not an IP camera. I have an X10 wireless that doesn't seem to work with icam.  I also only have a dial up connection (DSL not available in my location).

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

iCam Support / Timestamp for camera image

« on: October 09, 2009, 09:05:07 AM »

Any thought given to adding a timestamp to the camera image. I use the camera to view my home while at work and sometimes not sure if image has frozen due to software glitch.  A timestamp on the camera image for solve this problem.

Thanks
