Mini Mega-pixel IP Camera 

 

57 

A:

  It’s probably because the internet bandwidth (internet speed) is not big enough. 

Please try to apply for a better internet connection from your Internet Service 
Provider or decrease the bandwidth settings of the IP Cam. You can adjust the 
bandwidth requirement of the IP Cam either from the CamView software or login 
into the web configuration page of the IP Cam to do the modification.   

 

9.  Does the IP Cam provide the recording function? 
A:

  You can do the recording of the video/audio of the IP Cam from the CamView. 

Another software CamPlay is needed to play the recorded vide/audio files. 

The camera could also do recording on Micro-SD card and NAS devices. 

 

10. The video seems a little dark when the IP Cam is used inside the house, how 

could I improve this? 

A:

  You can increase the “Low light sensitivity” in the “video settings” page either 

through web configuration or through CamView settings to “High” or “Very high”. 
This will tremendously improve the video quality in dark environment.   

 

11. 

Can I connect the IP camera directly to my PC/notebook with an Ethernet 

cable? 

 

A:

  If the IP camera is directly connected to your PC/notebook computer using an 

Ethernet cable, the IP camera will automatically use an IP address called “auto IP” 
with IP address 169.254.xxx.xxx. If your PC/notebook computer is configured to 
DHCP, it will also use an “auto IP” address. But this will take about one minute 
after the IP camera is connected to the computer and you need to make sure that 
the WiFi interface on your PC/notebook computer is disabled. After about one 
minute, you can run the CamView software to access the IP camera, the CAM ID 
should be displayed on the “auto-search” list. You can then see the video by 
double clicking the CAM ID icon. But you need to know that in this situation, other 
local or remote computer can not see the video.
