Another important note: Whenever performing a firmware upgrade, make sure you have a stable connection (preferably wired) between your PC and D-Link device. If the firmware upload fails due to a broken connection or communication disruption, the device may be rendered unusable.

I just had an opportunity to setup my replacement (i.e. RMA'd DCS-932L). I was unable to stabilize wireless with the new camera and thought I'd try upgrading the firmware as a Hale Mary Pass. Sure enough, wireless is finally stabilized and the camera is working properly with FW v1.02.

What is odd is that I was never prompted to upgrade my 932 camera...only my other three 930's....

[JavaLawyer]

The DCS-930 and DCS-932L have different firmware files and versions. If the DCS-930 firmware was placed in the U.S. database, while the DCS-932L was not, then that would explain why only the DCS-930 detected an update.

How would you know to upgrade the 932 and where is the upgrade? it is the only camera I have without the 60 second timeout...maybe I should not upgrade?

[JavaLawyer]

I don't know if the DCS-932L firmware was omitted by design or unintentionally. The D-Link Taiwan website contains a release labeled as "world wide" (as opposed to others labeled as "China only"). The firmware is accompanied by detailed release notes and a change history.

I've been using D-Link products for some time now, so I know where the firmware releases for different products are typically maintained in the U.S. and Internationally:

Taiwan: http://tsd.dlink.com.tw/
United States: ftp://ftp.dlink.com/Multimedia/

Thanks much for the Taiwan firmware links!

Was able to just now successfully update the firmwares of my 930L & 932L cameras!

[JavaLawyer]

Congratulations. Always glad to help.
