Instead of using DHCP set it up using a static IP. Choose an IP in your DHCP range from your Router, for subnet mask use 255.255.255.0, the gateway should be the your router IP, and use the DNS servers from your Router. After I did this they set up with no problems. I have 5 and they all were set up like this.

You need to learn about port forwarding. On your router, you need to go to it's web sight and open up certain ports and then set up your IP camera to use that port. It took me awhile to learn but look up some articles on port forwarding. Or go to the routers manufacture web sight. It should show you how to use port forwarding , It's the only way to see your camera from the internet anywhere. I look at my cameras with my Iphone. I't looks easy now , but took awhile to set it up right .

May need to port map and get an external IP address. No-ip has free packages.

NO. I bought a USB Linksys DUAL BAND AE2500 Then it kept 'cutting out' SO I hooked up to the EtherNet port in the back. Works better (faster, Obviously).

That is why i purchased it, not sure if it was defective, it just worked on one computer and not the other, so i have to move ethernet line to other computer when needed. For the price it may be worth a try.

I could not get WiFI to work on the receiver. I am using a wired connection for the Internet.

No. It works well on my wired network though, and through my wireless router.

I don't know. I've never tried to hook it up, but if I get a chance today, I will try it. We run W7 here. Joe

Sorry, I'm no help because I couldn't get the wifi extener to work at all. Directions were confusing and not very helpful. Mine is in a box ready for the dump!

I paired this with an ASUS RT-N66U and used it as an Ethernet Adapter - this is its default mode. It detected the 5 GHz band as the having the best signal strength. I had quite a time getting this device to function properly. The instructions are quite lacking.

You have to plug in the packaged "wifi" box into an Ethernet port. It works with any internet provider.

I am currently useing the Pluglink Ethernet Adapter and I HAVE AT&T; DSL. I am not sure why they are not working for you. I am sure you are utilizing it correctly but mine worked by connecting an Ethernet cable directly out of the AT&T; WiFi modem to one of the Pluglinks that is plugged into the wall. Then another Ethernet cable is plugged into an additional Pluglink in another room, that goes directly to the computer.

I cinfigured it as an access point to plug in my ethernet wired phones and it worked. I did read that it can be configured as a repeater, but did not try it that way.

For internet connectivity, it works on Wifi also, you don't need an Ethernet cable. However, you need a HDMI cable to connect it to TV.

You are correct that it has to be plugged in to an Ethernet port, usually a router to work correctly on a digital line. If you use the phone port it may work, but the phone port is not deigned for digital line.

I haven't had problems with wifi. You may want to see if you have the latest software for it.

I can't get it to hook up to my wireless network because apparently the network is WEP secured. I can get my work laptop to hook up when I bring that home with no issue, so thought it was fine. NOPE! It won't work. When I did a search online I found that this is a common issue with others and there's nothing you can do about it. :-( I bought it so my son can play downloaded games and watch YouTube. Guess I wasted my money and got his hopes up for nothing.

I am using a wi-fi extender that has an Ethernet port for connecting the R-N500. I had to move the extender a few feet to stop connection failures and it seems to work fine now.
