Customer Reviews

Setup was easy, tons of useful features and has been working great for weeks!
I have installed this camera in order to monitor my newborn in his crib mainly so that I can hear him when I'm not in the bedroom and he needs my help.

The installation was very easy -- took me only 10 minutes. The web-based interface is not as decked out, but very easy-to-use. After installing a small ActiveX Control, it immediately works with my Internet Explorer 6.5. I was even able to create different user accounts so that my son's not-as-tech-savvy grand parents and uncles/aunts can view him live from Taiwan and West Coast. It's been up and running for several weeks and no previously reported bugs have been found. I guess they updated the firmware/software.

My overall feedback:
Pros:
- Very easy to setup
- Support of two-way audio communication -- I can hear my son and talk to him
- Camera rotation, zoom, white-balance (iris) even the LED lights can be controlled easily through web-based interface
- Ability to create multiple user accounts with diff. privileges
- Built-in web-based streaming server -- very easy to set up a web-cast
- Has auto-focus and auto-white-balance

Cons:
- Doesn't support Firefox (reason for a 4-star)
- Auto-focus sometimes doesn't focus perfectly

When it worked...
When it worked, it worked very well and I was happy. Resolution was excellent, low light excellent, really all was perfect (I did not use it wireless, mine was wired into my network and used outdoors with the D-Link outdoor heated housing). About 1 year later it stopped taking any commands and then stopped working. So, it was great while it lasted. I replaced it with the lower level D-Link DCS-5300. You can read my review on that one if you like.

Purchase something else
The first one I received was defective. That can happen with anything manufactured. The replacement(very fast, Thanks Amazon) was not a problem getting it to work, keeping it working was a problem. Camera would just quit working for no reason - black screen. Let it set for some time (cool) and it would come back on. Unit did get very warm, but not to the point it would cause a fire. Zoom and focus was OK, along with moving the camera. Forget about wireless! After hours of attempts, even with a person that works in that field, we could not get it to work unless it was hard wired. No support from company. Some have stated it needed a firmware upgrade. That may be the cause of most of the problems. Something that cost as much as that camera should do a much better job.
I did what I thought was the best action to take, return for refund. Best thing to do is look at other cameras.
