Title: Failing to connect DCS-933L to FTP on home computer server.
Post by: Paul Neubauer on May 17, 2016, 03:58:43 PM
Created FTP on windows 10
Made all entries into the camera set up.
It recognizes the ip address for the router.
testing continues to respond with invalid user/password. 

I have no idea what to do next.

Your FTP Server is on your windows 10 machine? Enter that IP Address in.  Not your router!!!?

As far as can tell it is entered correctly.

10.0.0.3 is the camera
10.0.0.138 is the server

From the router device info page:
Hostname    MAC Address    IP Address    Expires In
EPSONE5393F   a4:ee:57:e5:39:3f   10.0.0.2   20 hours, 35 minutes, 18 seconds
Guano-VI   ac:d1:b8:16:40:eb   10.0.0.1   16 hours, 22 minutes, 41 seconds
Guano-Cam-01   b0:c5:54:0b:eb:b4   10.0.0.3   21 hours, 34 minutes, 8 seconds

It won't respond to the ip4 (10.0.0.1) address so I used the ip6 (10.0.0.138)

The path goes to a location on my personal user directory and I put my user logon in the user/password which is what is entered as the specific user in the ftp.

from ipconfig 10.0.0.138 is listed as the default gateway.
the ipv4 address is 10.0.0.1, but again the 933L doesn't want to communicate with it in testing.

Or I'm missing what the machine address is.

Is there someone who can tell me what to do to get this to work?

Presumable the proper information is out there, why can't D-link automate the process dependent upon what is needed?

I want to see the camera from my browser.
I want it to send images and videos to my computer.
I want to access the camera from the internet.

I don't want to use the video share service.

You can access the camera from any browser, I use IE and FF mostly from the LAN side. Just input the cameras IP address it gets from the main host router into the browser, in your case looks like 10.0.0.3. Be sure java is up to date and add the cameras IP address into Javas security exceptions and allow for any D-Link plug ins to be installed as well.

Should direct the cameras FTP address to your PCs IP address if that's where you have FTP setup on.

It might not like the space in your username and the path. Please try without.
