Wishlist Items Addressed by D-Link (Thank You!)

• General - Daylight savings time support [FIXED!]
  
• Audio - Resolve intermittent background audio clicking [FIXED!]
  
• [Bug] Password - Passwords created that exceed the maximum length (8 characters) are not rejected, only the first 8 characters are accepted (firmware should reject the password and generate an error message) [FIXED!]
  
• Video - The "Zoom" function in the web UI should magnify the video image from the center of the frame rather than the top left corner [FIXED!]

The ability to view video in real-time via https REALLY needs to be addressed immediately, as the only other recourse is to connect via http, with plain text passwords that can be captured by any router or network device between the two remote locations sending and receiving the traffic.

I also believe that the timezone issue: ( http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=40692.msg192637#msg192637 ) has been fixed, but requires a reboot of the camera, and to make it an immediate calculation would be the fix needed now, immediate recalculation upon saving the timezone change.

Another change that would be nice is to see what actual firmware rev one is on in the status screen, as "1.06 (2012-12-21)" doesn't state "v1.06b04"

I did notice that if I am logged on as admin to the camera, I cannot see "admin" logged on to the camera in the "Active User", nor can I see my Android watching live that is authenticated as a different user in the list of currently connected users.  Major security issue, think "wife dressing".

• [Bug] UPnP - When UPnP forwarding is disabled, the DCS-932L still creates UPnP ports on the host router (This creates potential conflicts with other services)

Got hit with this one on my DCS-932L and DCS-942L. Super annoying bug; renders uPnP on my router useless, since it overrides other devices.

[jm77]

Fix the issue where the camera still creates UPnP ports on the router when UPnP forwarding is set to disabled.  I have been messing with the UPnP settings all night on the camera and no matter what the setting it still opens ports on my router.  Each time it happens it kills access to a web site I am hosting.  I finally changed the port on the camera to stop the conflict.

These should definetely be address very soon if D-Link want people to keep bying these cameras. I have 4 already and i need two more but i am struggling to buy them if these things are not addressed. Simple software upgrade can fix these issues.

Do you think this may be getting a bit long for one list? The things we really want looked at seem to be getting a bit lost among the many items that people have "just noticed".

I would propose at least 2 lists. High/low priority maybe. Split between the things that are maybe minor, and the things that would stop us buying another camera of this model.

Other people's opinions about what goes on the high priority list may vary, but for my 2 cents worth the only thing I really want is the motion detection email on a schedule. This has been on the list pretty much from the start but I'm concerned that it's getting lost in the crowd.

I've tried this approach with other products and it didn't work out. Every item on this list was important/critical to the person who submitted it. Although I have a good idea of what is critical to the masses, it's not for me or any particular subset of users to place weight on or trivialize other member contributions.

Is there an ETA to address ANYTHING?

I would say that without a doubt, https function should be number one top priority, like YESTERDAY...
Plain text passwords are sent until then.

This camera's Release Date: March 3, 2011 (2 years ago).

Try using a newer camera, like a 2132L/2230/5222l for https, like TODAY.

I don't have a 932, but can you try this plain text password:  guest/guest ....

It works on the 2132L/2230.  5222L isn't affected by this hack attack.

Not a very constructive comment, the 932L is a model that is available for sale now. I personally bought mine 3 months ago, not 2 years ago. I think we all have a right to expect software to be kept up to date and issues/bugs addressed. If you don't have a 932L, why are you reading a wish list topic for it?

I'm just telling you what you are missing out on... and it's also the truth - no https:// is going to come to some outdated tech. Comprende?
