ClueTwo Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Ok gents, need some help. Bought a internet camera designed to be viewed remotely via the interweb. I set up my router so that I can now access it from any browser. Still can't figure out how to see my camera. I gave it a static IP address so that it's always the same from my router, but I'm confused on how I would access that via the internet. Casek or Seffiks I'm willing to give you access to my router if you think that may help, but if you have any suggestions I would appreciate it greatly.

ClueTwo Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 I've got the full manual on my desktop, and I keep browsing through it, but it hasn't helped me determine how to access it remotely. LAN wise, I'm watching myself type this, it's the WAN area I'm having issues with. Would you think that the camera would have a unique IP that I could type into a browser? I assigned it a static IP of 192.168.1.3 on my router, but I only did that in case the router decided to change it if the power was turned off or something,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClueTwo Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 You know, I'm not at home, but I don't believe my camera is NOT compatible with the mydlink site. I'll find out when I get home, but I'm doubting it..Probably going to have to read, read, and read some more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasfacevictm Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Beer spilled next to laptop. Let it dry for days after immediately turning it off. Turned it on few days later and it worked. 2 weeks later I let it run until the battery went dead. Charged and turned it on and now the screen is barely visible. Is it dead or is it the video card? Or can I take it apart and clean it out? Lesson learned about drinks near my laptop by the way. PS- hard drive still runs and everything else works. It's just the screen that is reall faint unless under bright, bright light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloud cover Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 The smell is coming from the power supply. Does that mean it is teh failz and must be replaced? Yes. Consider getting one with a higher wattage rating as a replacement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanfullofretards Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 How do you reset a Mac's admin password without knowing the old one? My girls Leopard OS was installed with her friends OS disk, when she tried her friends password it didnt work on hers. Google results showed you should reboot then hold down apple key + S and a command prompt is suppose to pop up after a chime, but it didnt. So yeeaahh, I dont know shit about macs and if anyone could help me that'd be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seffiks Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 thanks but its still happening, should i run the registry cleaner to?, is it safe? when you run ccleaner it will delete the cookie so you do not need to press log off on 12oz when you close the browser it will automatically log you out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seffiks Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 when you power up have the apple key and S pressed down and wait for the chime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomentIsNow Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Was running 2 sound cards. Stock one and some soundblaster one. Computer doesn't see either of 'em anymore. HALP!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Æ° Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I'm assuming the soundblaster is your preferred sound card? If the stock one is integrated into the motherboard, disable it in BIOS. Then restart and see if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seph Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Control Panel> System> Device Manager> Sound Controllers Check if anything is listed there, you might want to try and reinstall the drivers of said sound card(s). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUGR Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I'm thinking about getting a new laptop that comes with Vista Home Premium, would I be able to set up a VPN connection if the host PC is running Windows XP? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomentIsNow Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 So I uninstalled and reinstalled drivers for both cards. They both installed fine but when I check their status it says: Driver is enabled but inactive due to an unknown problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
