Hi, can you use a third party DNS Server with this camera?

I dot think so. I honestly had a bad expirience with this camera. It beeds to be connected to an eather cable the whole time, and the app woulndt connect with it. It was just an all around ba time and i tried to return it and the told me i had to pay to ship it back

I can't tell you for sure because I do not need a third party DNS server because when I checked mine it said it was already the fastest. The plug and play capabilities of my camera work perfectly though. It always comes up on my smartphone when set us as the instructions dictate. The only time it didn't work was when we had a power outage or when the internet it's connected to went down. Neither are the camera's fault.

You need to understand how port forwarding works on your router and assign a port to the camera if you want to access it from outside your home network. by default the camera powers up using DHCP to obtain an address from your router. It communicates using the http port 80 on your router. If you want to use it outside your home network or if you have more than one camera you need to assign it a port on your router and setup this port number in your camera. The camera interface is very easy to navigate.

I guess you can, that is if you can ever get the dang thing to work. I never had any luck with it. I just ended up buying an IP camera and using my monitor when I wanted to see what's going on.

it uses none. It is wifi wireless. Your DVR would have to support wifi for the camera to be added, but that is really not the point of this camera. It actually is a webserver on its own.

You can set fixed IP addresses up on this unit, which I guess your cameras could use, but it doesn't have any USB ports to utilise.

I can't imagine why not. It's just a "regular" ethernet device. (FWIW, I'm _very_ happy with the camera.)

Yes, but you will have to set it up using the web interface. The trick is that that the camera has a default IP address that you have to accommodate and use the provided Ethernet cable.What I have done in the past is connect the camera directly to the Ethernet connector on my Mac (or the USB to Ethernet adapter), manually set the address if the Mac to be in the same subnet as the default IP address if the camera. You can then use your web browser on your Mac to connect to that address.The specifics of default IP address are provided in the included documentation.

No, to both. The camera will have its own IP address and you can access it using a browser. If you are home, you can go direct using its IP Address like 192.168.1.81 or if you are away from home, you type in your router address and then :81 after the router address. You will need to port forward port 81 or whatever port you assign to your camera in your router. Tech support can assist you if you have trouble with the directions.

The instructions indicate you cannot. However, you could set up an external network server only to record at certain times. If you use the internal SD storage capability, this would appear not to be possible. Another possibility is to set a timer on the power supply to the camera. This would require that the camera reboot itself when power is restored. The problem with that is that there is no battery in the unit to restore the internal clock and calendar so you could lose the settings in this process.

1. The camera is not safe because it can only use http. If you plan to view from outside your home you have to setup port forwarding in your router.2. Yes, username "admin" and password is empty. You should change it right away.3. Yes you can change it.

Don't know about that but you might want to try contacting support on wansview website, also there are some utilities available for download there. http://wansview.net/tools-support.html One thing though, I was able to set it up without using the installation disc. What you want to do is first connect the camera to your router via lan cable, then in your router admin site find out the IP the camera was assigned and then access the camera using that IP. I hope this helps.

Yes. You can remotely Access your camera and all of its functions. You only need to properly configure your Dynamic IP service and you are ready to go. Regards.

I am not sure. I usually use wifi, but I think there maybe an extension but I maybe speaking under correction. It's best if you contact the seller Adorama Camera. The customer care answers swiftly and are very precise. Hope my answer helps.

Hi,the camera support P2P,no need to do port forwarding if you want to remote access.

Camera isn't wireless and like most, if not all IP cameras, can be port forwarded on your router for remote viewing. One caveat though, make sure you pay attention to the minimum lighting requirement
