Customer Reviews of D-Link DCS-2100G Wireless Internet Camera, Built -in Mic. 802.11g, 54Mbps
Like my Linksys better Dissapointed. Not very user friendly. Picture quality is only descent in perfect lighting situations. Does not like sunlight nor does it like low light. <
>I've had a Linksys for 2 years and is much more user friendly. Also Linksys sends via email, streaming video instead of a snapshot. <
>Hoping I can return it to Buy.COM.
DCS-2100G Image quality is only fair
I purchased two of these cameras.
<
>
<
>Pros:
<
>-- Access the camera wirelessly (within your network) and through the Internet (within or outside of your network.)
<
>-- Moving the camera to other locations (within your wireless network) is easy. Just unplug, move, and replug into AC outlet.
<
>-- Has nice features regarding IP assignment, email alerts, motion detection, etc.
<
>-- A comprehensive manual (148 pages.)
<
>
<
>Cons:
<
>-- Fair image quality (inferior to webcams that cost $40.) DLink should have spent the $10 or less in additional build cost for a better camera.
<
>-- Does NOT "capture video in minimal lighting." Much less sensitive than webcams that cost $40. In typical indoor room lighting, image is very very dark.
<
>-- Fair focusing adjustment. The focusing ring is not easy to use in getting the image focused (yes, I had my laptop nearby so I could view the image while adjusting the focus.) With the center of the image focused, the outer edges are slightly out of focus.
<
>-- Firmware (the internal camera software) is not upgradeable. One of my DCS-2100G cameras has firmware v1.0 and the other has firmware v1.03. The camera with firmware v1.03 allows you to turn off the bright blue flashing LED on the camera; the camera with firmware v1.0 does not allow you to turn off the flashing LED (there is no physical switch on the camera.) This is an important feature, since there are situations where I do not want to bring attention to the existence of the camera, or just find the flashing LED annoying. The installation software provided by DLink has a firmware upgrade option, but requires you to have a copy of the firmware. I tried contacting DLink technical support (both through telephone and email) and the last response was, "Unfortunately the D-Link support site does not have any firmware upgrade available to download." You decide what that means.
<
>-- Setup is complex. (The manual is 148 pages.) And with a non-DLink router, it is slightly more complex. Note: this is probably an issue with any wireless camera. Setting up access, in particular from outside your network, is a complex process.
<
>-- Camera occasionally resets itself, requiring one to "reprogram" features.

Good design features, but not all can work well
I have set up my first 2100G camare, although i am happy with all designed features, but I could not make "motion detection alert email" working properly after 3 weeks of frustrated testing, with all sort of try and erro effort. The local d-link support also could not figure out the solution except giving me a replacement set. However the problem still exists.
