Hi there,
I've just purchased one of these cameras and I have a few questions.
I've managed to get the camera to work on my home internet and using the supplied software, I can record and adjust the camera by pan/tilt.
1. Having real trouble gettting the camera to be accessed remotely from outside my network. Even using the "built in DDNS settings" ,****.ipcam.hk, I get no connection.
2. I'm using it inside the house to monitor the back garden, especially at night. Is there anyway I can turn off the IR LEDs as they just reflect on the window and i am unable to see anything.
3. I can't get the email client to work on it. I've asked it to send messages to my personal email but it won't accept the settings I have given it. Even tho these match the settings on my PC it keeps saying connection failed.
4. According to the literature I can access the device using my Android smart phone. I've tried using many of the apps available to do this but I can't find one that supports this device. Any idea which one I should be using?
Many thanks.
