Here are my notes on the IP Camera DCS-942L
(The second because the first 942 was never functional, AMAZON thank you for replacement)
Products too difficult to function in Windows (Vista)
Products not in accordance with the purchase because in Firmware update installation from the start (and lock !!).
Not always programs in FR and not user friendly and interface (hard to find if you are not a computer, etc ..)
To explain the difficulty of installation of the 942L connected to an Orange Box and Wifi
Imperative: connect from the start, all devices Camera and PC wired and the Box.
The commissioning manual 2 pages are frankly inadequate, it was imperative to call D-Link Technical Support.
Contact a technician after qq minutes of waiting, and then 30 to 40 mm later, the image finally appeared on camera ..
You must admit that this is not quite normal
Too many computer tricks or manipulation .. to
And we must search the site, the latest program updates, because the supplied CD does not work and blocks on the second page!
This is a shame ..
Ditto for 3 firmware 942L provided for this (they do not all work)
In short, a GALERE IMMEASURABLE to go all the end of this installation by Wifi.
Moreover all the cameras are not compatible with the option mydlink (for remote access).
Only cameras with the mention "L" are consistent
For information
This remark is not always indicated on the technical descriptions resellers !!
In short, D-Link has really still much progress to be made to optimize time and DInstalling implementation of its cameras.
