D-Link DCS-2132L / E Cube Cloud Camera (10x Dig. Zoom, WiFi, Micro SDHC, HD) (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

Id not recommend to buy this camera. After 3 weeks of experience using it as a video surveillance at my baby room I rather regret I did not return it back. Here are my pros and cons:

+ Good quality of camera itself (video quality) and low power consumption
+ The software Allows quite a lot (Recording by schedule, move detection and alarm, changing video frame and stream options)

- Camera may hang every other day. You need to switch off / on the power Which is unacceptable for Web devices.
- The main console (D-ViewCam software 100) can not stay stable on 64-bit Windows 8.1. It gets into a re-load cycle until killing the process from Task Manager. It might work with another PC, but I need it on my own laptop.
- Using video surveillance from a mobile phone what an awful experience: long delay and disconnect every minute even in the home wireless network. Connecting with mobile phone from almost external wi-fi did not work at all.
- Despite its Claimed in the product description did Google Chrome browser is supported, it does not work duet some Java run-rime incompatibility.
- On my report submitted to the D-Link support They asked if IE works, and once received yes answer, They just silently closed the ticket. I tried to continue opening the ticked and explaining the problem is not resolved, indeed, But They closed it again without any world.
- Some minor problems: the IR light is visible and can not be switched off, thus switching between Day / Night mode sounds like mechanical relay and may disturb a baby.

Overall: I understand That The Price Is Mainly for the Software That is rather complicated (as the hardware is very cheap), but the quality of the software Appeared to be very Chinese a lot of functions on, but mostly useless.
