Hi,

I've been trying to get the wizard to find my new DCS-930L and it can't.  I have h/w B1, wizard 1.04.12, firmware 2.0.17-b70 - you can't match these b/c they are the only wizard/firmware combos that exist for B.  My router is an ARRIS NVG589, which unfortunately does NOT support uPNP.  I've spent several hours combing these forums and trying various things to no avail.  I can connect to the camera fine via wired AND wireless, have also tried disabling all f/w software.

* It seems you can only register the camera to mydlink via the Wizard.  Given my router doesn't support uPNP, am I out of luck?  If I knew *how* the wizard tries to find the camera (ports, protocols, etc) I could troubleshoot but I can't find that info anywhere. 
* I know how to setup port forwarding or even IP passthrough for my router, but again, that's pointless w/o any knowledge of what the wizard is trying to do.

Unfortunately, this camera is useless to me unless I can take advantage of the mydlink software

Any help appreciated, thanks.

I had the same problem. The camera is pretty well useless as you say. I can only connect to it via the internet browser.

The D-Link USA site and support.dlink.com have FW v2.017b06.

Yeah, unfortunately, I tried that FW version and still didn't work.  Oh well.
