Can the DNR-202L record remote cameras which are registered to MyDLink.com? I have 3 in a remote office & want to record from home.

The DNR and attached hard drive have to be in the same local network. You can playback the video that is recorded from anywhere. Maybe there is some hack that would make the DNR think the cameras are attached locally but not sure how that would work. The software it comes with is pretty clunky. This is no industrial setup to say the least.

Unfortunately no. The recorder must be connected to the router that is receiving the signal from the cameras. The saved recording however can be accessed remotely using an app. A high speed connection works best. 20 mps +.

Do not need software this is a camera - your DVR has the software in it - just go to the ip address and login using the user name and password you set in the set up of the unit. It WILL NOT WORK in your home network!!!! You must go to an outside internet source or you must use the ip address of the unit. I had to use No-IP.org because I do not get a static ip from my DNS provider.

Also, I see some folks saying that third party software is required...this is not true. The webpage built into the camera allows you to record to the local computer that the webpage is brought up on...ok so no, you don't need another software, unless you want to record as a DVR or NVR, meaning the webpage doesn't have to be up, but the DVR/NVR application has to be running.

Yes, such recording features are controlled by the DVR (digital video recording, or the security system to which these cameras connect), not the camera. So cameras capture the images, take them back via cables to the channels you designated on the DVR. Go into DVR Menu for recording and tell it what channel(s) are motion-sensor recording, continuous reocrding, no recording and whatever other recording options your DVR offers. Also for further info/clarification, call your DVR Tech Support.

Sorry, I never tried that. I used it for copying VHS that I recorded myself to DVDs. But I was VERY disappointed that it would not record from my DVR, refusing to "make more than the limit of 1 copy". The VHS is broken now, will play but not record. So I only use it to play DVD's.

Yes, you can use it with different software enabling it to do anything. It will also record 24/7 with the original software.Be advised you will always see a light on, green during the day and many red ones during the night.Additionally, you can have it always on; but only recording for motion or alarm (external trigger) to conserve storage space.

I never tried it but it seems reasonable that it would record from a DVR. Since I got rid of it years ago I can't test it to see if it would, however. Good luck!

I believe that the FTP upload option only sends still images when motion is detected, the DNR-202L actually records video and audio either on motion detect or all the time depending on your config. It also allows you to review the archived footage via PC or mobile.

Yes. You must first set up the cameras on a local wifi network. Most DVR boxes have a scannable QR code that will automatically put the information on the app. Enter username and password, and then press connect. MAKE SURE CAMERA SYSTEM HAS LATEST UPDATE!!!

We have not figured out how to work the cameras remotely if it is possible. The software that came with the DVR doesn't appear to work remotely. The software is limited. Maybe a different software? We are going to check into other software but haven't had the time yet. There is a Swann PC package you can load but we have not done this either.

The camera feed can be viewed directly by IP address over an internal network even without Internet access. The Android and iPhone mydlink Lite apps have a "Local" devices option that will show the camera feed provided the phone is connected to the same wireless network (i.e.: WiFi, not 3G\4G cellular). A computer or network video recorder on the same network will be able to record video from the camera as well. Obviously, remote live viewing will not work if Internet access is not available to the camera.

You are looking for an IP camera. No, this is not an IP camera that allows for remote access. This is a small, portable, self contained time lapse camera.

Yes, with FTP you can push video to a remote location. Please refer to the Remote Monitoring Guide here for available recording options: http://www.q-see.com/content/files/guides/QC%20NVR%20Remote%20Monitoring%20Guide%20v1_web.pdf

Yes they must be connected to the internet wired or wireless, you suppose to see cameras views remotely you do not have to be close by, to record you have to have a computer with the recording software on it or record it on your cell phone or tablet.Sami

Absolutely! Download iSpy video surveillance software (free - google it), Set up your camera on your computer or home network. No need to be on line unless you want to remote view (offsite) your camera. I have six cameras set up this way with no internet access.

Believe it can, but didnt try to figure out. Port this, forwarding port, etc,etc, alot to figure out. I got a camera that works with Seedonk software (isecurity+), software did it automatically, somewhat easy. This camera sends me an alert to my PC, iphone and records it off site for $6 a month. The D-link camera is accessible WI-FI or 4G to my iphone or PC. So if my motion camera with Seedonk sends me an alert, I check D-Link camera also.

Buy the DCS-932L, I have 4 of these installed at my house. DLink has an iPhone and iPad app they will allow you to view cameras remotely one at a time. There is an App called "Viewer for Axis Cams" by EyeSpyFx. This App is available for iPhone and iPad. It is $4.99, and will allow you to view up to 6 DLink Cameras at once.
