D-ViewCam 3.2 doesn't work with more than two cameras monitored
« on: July 10, 2012, 05:59:32 PM »
I have (2) 942-L, and (1) 5222-L on one network.  port forwarding set on router; (942) 192.168.1.3:1024, (942) 192.168.1.4:1025, and (5222) 192.168.1.8:80.  no matter if all 3 are connected to dViewCam, only two will work at a time.  Disconnect any third, and they work fine.  reconnect 3rd, and one disconnects intermittently.  On a side note, if I run a different program on another computer (iMac); i.e. IP Camera Viewer, they all work fine.  I know, I know, but I like DViewCam, because it's the only thing running the PC computer.  Any help would greatly be appreciated.  I'm not to tech savy.

Thank you,
Steve

Must be in the special setup, port forwarding, etc, as I am using 3.2 with a large number of cameras (920's mostly) straghtforward, and I have no problem monitoring more than 2. Bandwidth is an issue with 10+, but I am using wired connections so as not to influence WiFi bandwidth...

I wish I could figure it out.  I even took two off wifi for the same concerns with bandwidth and hard wired them into the router with no difference.  baffling....

I think I finally figured it out, sort of.  Did away with QoS parameters I set.  Perhaps they were wrong.  Then restarted the PC (had some kind of Ip conflict, not sure why since I set to static.  Though they disconnect every now and then, they do reconnect, and ALL three are up and running.

Thanks for all the helpful info and great suggestions............
