Anyone have any success getting to connect to the video stream over the internet on this device? My older FOSCAM works great with this stream address, but for the 9821, no dice. I am trying to get the video into SmartTiles but until I can see the stream on my browser I am certain it won’t work …

If you got it working in SmartTiles, what else isn’t working with it? Did you get the firmware updated to the latest version?

Oh, mine won’t go to IR mode so we can see at night, the wireless is terribly flaky where another FOSCAM next to it rocks, and it randomly is resetting and keeps trying to force itself to look down and you need to reset to get it to goto normal home position. It also reloads the admin area every 3 …
