Love the camera, despise the setup procedure as it fails to work 50% of the time.

Manual setup instructions for the non-lobotomized:

  • Power on camera
  • Wait for orange blinking light
  • Connect laptop to wifi name printed on the the instruction card
  • Login using the wifi password also printed on the card
  • Open web browser
  • Navigate to 10.255.255.1
  • Login to camera
  • Username admin
  • Password <blank>
  • Configure camera using web interface
  • Connect to wifi network of your choice without having to rely upon MyDlink applet discovery, which seems to fail regularly

These instructions should be included with the camera, I shouldn't have to figure them out for myself.
Hope this helps somebody else.

BadMojo, Great feedback and insight even though it is almost a year later but I just recently got the 2630L.
Is there any possibility of getting from Dlink the ability to access the cam as the one I received had the Quick Install Card missing and the label under the cam removed so I attempted to do the connection via WPS with my router and eventually got it to connect. However, when I try to sign on it forces me to enter the password in the Q-Card and I dont have a way of entering the cam password to connect to it since this info is missing.

I sent Dlink an email to the support team and still waiting but thought let me try another avenue while waiting for their response.

Hope there is a way otherwise IMF... >:( :o

Best regards,

I would try phone support as you'll get more immediate results.
