Stand alone Ptz ip camera

Recommended Posts

Is there anyone able to save me a complete head of grey hairs and help me sleep again?

This camera is a 19 month saga.

Purchased from going.cz via Ali express.

Camera arrived. Many nights days weekends trying to get it to work. Contacted going, and after a few stern legal threats their support tried remote access and advised the camera is faulty. Ok so it was up to me to pay $88 to send it back. After 2 months they advised they send postage to send the camera back. Grrrr!!!

Got it back. Boots up correctly now, have it working on the wifi but only internally. I can see it on a laptop which is wireless as is the camer. I can see it in the router and think I have port forwarding set up correctly to dyndns.org. This is seperate to another cctv Dvr which has cameras connected to it. Our internet is cable with a dynamic ip hence the dyndns and port forwarding.

The instruction manual is a little crappy and not 100% identical to the software but very similar.

I want to be able to view the camera from outside the network, such as on an iPhone, as I can with the other system but just can't get through for some stupid reason. So far had 2 commercial it techs and 2 wanna be techs try. This damn thing cost $800 initially, and to date we are up to $1188 so it very close to becoming a damn expensive anchor!

Oddly, I was considering a PTZ camera for my surveillance system too and noticed yours looks similar to the one I've been researching. I have a Swann 8 camera (wired) DVR system and after speaking with Swann Tech support, they claim only their cameras will work with their DVR systems. What I want is to add an AUTO-TRACKING PTZ camera similar to yours to my system, but Swann does not make such a PTZ camera.

 

So if I'm reading your post correctly, you can configure the PTZ camera thru your Wi-Fi on your router? Is there some additional software that works with Windows to do this configuring (i.e. a CD with software that came with the camera)? Based though on your experience, I'm thinking of backing away from one of these AUTO-TRACKING PTZ cameras.

The business mine came from is at http://www.ptzipcamera.org/

 

Yes it does come with a cd with software but that too didn't work. I asked them to email me a copy of what is on the cd.

The software is called NVS Centre which stands for network video centre. I see they are selling on eBay too now. Use caution my friend as they proved to me their after sales help is not worth the effort.
