Title: Unable to see cameras in D-ViewCam -New User
Post by: upthecreek on July 13, 2014, 04:46:50 PM

I've jumped in head first. I'm a new user and I've bought 4 cameras and a Recorder. I successfully got all 4 running an mydlink. When I couldn't figure out how to display all 4 at once I dug around and found I needed to install D-ViewCam. Did that. The Manual said to use the Wizard to connect cameras, but following the directions it just took me back through the Wizard I already used for mydlink.  Then in an attempt to use D-ViewCam, I poked around did the following: picked the icon for General Settings, <Setting>, <System Setting> ,picked the <Camera> tab, <Search>, <Start Scan>. and it finds nothing.

So I can see all my Cameras fine in mydlink, but I can't get them connected to D-ViewCam.

HELP!

I think I must be close, but could use some direction.
Thank you in Advance.
My User Name says it all. I'm currently without a paddle.

Do you have D-ViewCam installed on a PC located on the same LAN as your cameras?

Yep. All on the same LAN. Out in the country, with only critters to hack my wifi. Never trust a squirrel.

Called D-Link support. Resolved by removing the older version of D-ViewCam that came on CD, and downloading latest version.
