It works, but...

I've been using a Logitech Quickcam Pro 4000 USB webcam attached to my home computer to serve video through my Linksys router over the internet using free tools from Winamp/Shoutcast/NSV.I get 15 fps, at 320x240, with fair video quality, including 32kbps sound, at a total data rate of about 10KBps.That's one fifth of my Comcast-dictated cable upstream speed limit.A very impressive solution, except it requires I leave my computer on all the time, and that I have the camera near the computer.The DCS...

worst customer support I have ever seen

I had DCS-900W from the same product line. It craped out after 9 months, and now I am on the fifth call to try to resolve the issue and get it shipped back. I don't know where their support is located, but the line quality is very bad, they ran the same drill over and over, but just don't want to issue you an order for you to ship back.This is the first D-Link product I own and probably the last. The resolution looks crappy even when it's new, and now it's totally dead, even reset won't work on...

Don't waste your money or sanity

This is the 3rd and 4th D-Link product I have bought.Not one of them work properly. Media Centre took 8 hours to set up wirelessly and still requires manual reconfiguring, D-Link Wireless USB requires constant re-setting. Just received 2 x DCS900W Internet Cameras. First one set up reasonable easilly . The second one I have spent an entire 8 hours on, and still the D-Link setup software will not even recognise the hardware. Whatever you do - don't buy this product - or if you insist on wasting your...

Reliability and poor documentation are problems

I have three D-Link cameras - two DCS-900W and one DCS-950. All three required firmware updates, all three came with obsolete viewing software, two have had to go back for repairs (one 900W and one 950) --- and they're giving me problems again. Unfortunately, they're 200 miles from here, and I can't easily get to them, so reliability is an issue with me.Then there's the documentation issue. There's no hint of the fact that the latest version of their multi-view software (which lets you look at up...
