The Graveyard - Products No Longer Supported => IP Cameras => DCS-933L => Topic started by: jaywash521 on November 25, 2014, 01:16:57 PM

OK so i just purchased the DCW-933L for some basic home security. Tried to set it up and it says that it cannot find the camera. I bought two so I tried both. Nothing. I tried on my desktop wirelessly and my laptop wired to the router. Still nothing. I checked the forums here and everyone is talking over my head. The funny thing is I knew this wasnt going to work. I knew it was going to be a PITA. So now I have spent $150 and have nothing working except my headache. I cant find any tech help support other than an email I can send them ... which is just stupid when I need help right now. Sooo eff this company, I am taking it back. It shouldnt be this difficult to set up a simple camera.
