I'm in the process of setting up my D-Link DCS-932L cam. I already have 2 Foscam cameras working on the wireless network.

I connected the power and ethernet cables, plugged it in to my router (Apple Airport Extreme) and got the green light on the back. I ran the setup wizard, and it asks "how will you connect your camera to the router ?" and "Current connection: wired connection". I can select ethernet cable, by selecting a wireless network, or WPS. My router doesn't have WPS so I go for the second option as I need it on wifi. The app then says "scanning wireless network", though doesn't seem to find my (or indeed any) wireless networks. The only option in the drop-down list after it has finished scanning is "Others". If I select "Others" then I have to enter my wi-fi name manually as well as the security type, encryption type and wireless password.

I enter these things and click "next" - it says "saving network settings" and then "restarting network" and then "please unplug your network cable from the camera and click OK" - which I did (as soon as I do, the green light turns to red). It then says "restarting network" again and then "checking internet connection" (which takes a while), before asking me if the LED on the camera is green - it is not, it is still red. It then tells me that it could not create a wireless connection, and restarts again.

Any help appreciated!

Further to the above - I registered the cam with mydlink and logged in via the web browser. Here I was able to go to "advanced settings" and then wifi setup, and it seems that my network was found. I selected it and clicked save. Nothing happened, so I tried unplugging the ethernet cable from the cam, and the LED turned red with connection lost. I tried unplugging the power and starting it up again to see if it would connect to the wifi, but it did not.

Any thoughts?

I have the same issue. Ever figure this out?

What Mfr and model is the main host router?
