router is about 150' away from ip camera setup inside a concrete building. do I mount antenna @ the camera building? need only one?

You will need 2 units, unless you already have a wireless client on one end. You will need to mount the antenna on the outside of the building where you have line of sight to your endpoint. You will have to run CAT 5E (I would use the Ubiquiti Tough Cable & use the shield if you are mounting outside).

Mount the Antenna where the computer/monitor/router is going to be. You need only one.

Not enuff info, camera inside? monitor in same building or other? U will likely need two antennas, probably not as powerful as airgrid.

Maximum distance for "most" wifi cameras is 150'. The signal depletes or reduces over distance and any objects in between camera & receiver diminishes the signal. The user manual does not specify.

You could use 2 of these, assuming you have an ethernet jack near the one in the building to make the bridge, however 40 feet isn't much you may be able to use 1 on the wall nearest the rv and get enough signal as an ap

In my experience, there was no interference with the WiFi network. I had the cameras on an exterior wall opposite my router and there appeared to be no difference in the router performance before and after. I did replace these cameras as they do not perform well outside; they allow moisture to get into the electronics and invariably fail.

When you are in the same room you are on the same local network. To access the camera from a distance you have to set up your router to forward the port (it defaults to 80 which some service providers block, so I switch mine to 82-89. Also most ISPs use dynamic IP addresses which means your IP address can change over time. I use a service like dyndns.org to provide a consistent URL. I have these cameras set up in Las Vegas and monitor them from Chicago all of the time.

connect the camera via LAN (hardwired) cable to your router first. You should have DHCP setup on your router to auto assign the IP address. I had this same problem even using the LAN cable, had to return it and never bought another one. I bought a DLINK instead.

You'll need to have a really strong feeder signal from your router. It says 70%, but you're going to need more like 85%

Sorry for the delay in answering you...things have been a bit off track because of the long Holiday weekend Here is the answer from our technical people. You need 1 unit for 4 cameras. PoE provides Power and Data for camera up to 300 feet. Hope that helps, John Duncan 1-888-445-8375

NO!! Do not waste your money. If you want that ltype of range I would suggest a Agasio A602W camera and use a range extender in your network. I have 2 Agasio A602W's monitoring my driveway with two very solid walls between the cameras and the range extender and they work great. I don't like the Foscam brand as they are not all what they say they are. If your cameras are that far away and you have very little obstruction, you would still need a range extender.

I have installed cameras under a roof and at 2 meters. The outlet is next to the cameras.

Dear Paul, change the WIFI encyption authenication with our "Eyesee Finder", please come to www.szgeeya.com/ipc for related software. Please know that the camera shall not be too much near the wifi router, like dark under the lamp. But if long time video recording or surveillance, we would advise wired connection. Further questions please feel free to contact us.

It would mount outside of your building on a pole (unit comes with mount but not pole) point it in direction of where you want signal. Run cable indoors to poe injector (included). Then another cable goes from injector to your router / modem / Internet . Program and enjoy 100% signal.

Camera isn't wireless and like most, if not all IP cameras, can be port forwarded on your router for remote viewing. One caveat though, make sure you pay attention to the minimum lighting requirement

Works for me. I have a Belkin router in the basement and a two antenna Amped SR1000 repeater on the second floor feeding the directional antenna outside. The directional antenna uses one spot where one antenna was removed (which one makes a difference) and the other antenna is for indoor use.I have a great signal from the Amped to a dock location 300 feet from the house and I select the Amped source everywhere in the house except the basement where the Belkin signal is better.

For initial setup you must connect the camera to the router with the included Ethernet cable. This allows you to configure the wireless settings and once completed can be unplugged and placed where you'd like provided you have a wireless signal and power.

Hi purchase the Wifi Antenna extenders for your Wifi router. Try different locations for the camera. Also install the wifi router on a higher level floor.

Larry,Each POE IP camera requires a dedicated Ethernet 5/6 cable. Can't split pairs... Good luck
