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 completely agree. Please do not make comments if you do not own one. It is not helpful.

I completely agree. Please do not make comments if you do not own one. It is not helpful.

There is a great deal of crossover in the functionality and firmware (i.e. web UI) between Cloud camera models. Understanding the differences (pros/cons) between different models makes for constructive discussion. Cross-product similarities often place Cloud camera owners (regardless of model) in a position to offer support and advice on other models they may not personally own.

Although there are periodic updates to the legacy Cloud camera model firmware, and as RYAT3 aptly points out, the newer Cloud camera models do in fact correct a number of deficiencies inherent in earlier models as well as offer a plethora of new functionality.

DCS-932L - Cumulative Firmware Release Notes

[the86d]

I bought these just a few months ago, and it's not only this DCS-932l that doesn't do https, but the DCS-930L doesn't either.  I bought the DCS-930l (I actually thought I was getting 2x DCS-932L's as I grabbed that and the one behind it) at the same time, and these two were all they had...

Https has been around for how long?  We have been required to send plain-text passwords until recently?

https should have been the default years ago.

I can only watch live video on my phone, with no sound, not on my work PC due to the Java issue, so I don't think I will ever buy or recommend D-Link cameras again with this type of lag on actualy issues getting resolved on cameras purchased recently.

Foscam it is.
