It would be oh-so-nice if the ftp filename Date/Time Suffix would include a bit of segmenting punctuation, so that instead of:
DCS-930L_2011090114562601.jpg
we could have
DCS-930L_20110901_14562601.jpg
or
DCS-930L_2011.0901.1456.2601.jpg
for easier readability

I hope the dlink developers read this!

It would be nice if the status panel could indicate how many connections of what type are being served.

Upon motion detection (scheduled!), then ftp multiple images, pre- and post-trigger, just like the email does.

Please, have Status page (http://x.x.x.x/stsdev.htm) indicate summary of reporting status, i.e. is email or ftp enabled, is motion detection enabled.
It should be easy to at least have a row if numbers.
And, make the time readout REAL - the time shown appears to be a javascript clock that stops and starts, so it is not truly indicating the status of the camera.

Please provide a choice of 2 fps in the Video panel (currently 1,5,7,15,20,[30]) - perhaps could be 1,2,4,8,15,...
The gap from 1 to 5 is quite large, and 1 is just a tad jerky.

The request for 2 fps video rate should have said "also in motion detector + ftp, or + email, mode"

General - Status page containing the number and type of connections currently served AND ACTUAL TIME OR OPERATIONAL STATUS -
currently, a javascript keeps time incrementing making it appear the camera is connected even when powered off.

ftp setup - have the response to the test message appear on the ftp setup page with a refresh, rather than going thru 3 pages and back

Add a specific control for user language
(the French menus after firmware update were a bit of confusion!)
Or at least a help comment on the firmware page, about need to restart after updating!
But, what if I WERE French?

I will  put this on the top of the list:

•Motion Detection - Motion detection email on a user defined schedule

My use case: I want to monitor my home while the kids are at school, so that they return to safe home.

The user define schedule in my case is M-F from 9 AM to 3 PM and don't want to be flooded with motion detection e-mail alerts at other times, when we are home.
