3 out of 5 stars Nice Camera, Poor Software   September 30, 2008
R. Modrok (Michigan)
I got this camera about a month ago. Had to call D-Link to get the wireless function to work. Once that was resolved I couldn't get the email function to work. After calling back and forth several times between my ISP and D-Link, D-link finally decided my camera was defective. They said I needed to call the the RMA department. After several calls to this department I was finally able to order a replacement camera, but I had to send my defective camera back at my own expense(9.00) UPS). I got the replacement camera this past Saturday. Well what do you know, the email function works. Now if i can just figure out how this stupid software works.

Bottom Line: Camera is OK. Software is terrible. Also, not impressed with D-Link service...Long waits on the phone, technician hung up on me twice, was supposed to call me back and didn't.



4 out of 5 stars Product works as advertised   September 22, 2008
Jaybird (Kalamazoo, MI)
The product works mostly as advertised. The instruction manuals are very lame, but the web interface, FTP and Email photo functions all work nicely, once you get them set up. One note: The camera is virtually useless at night.


5 out of 5 stars A Good wifi camera solution.   August 24, 2008

Over the last 4 years, this is my fourth D-Link wireless Camera. I started with the DCS-900W which was a 802.11b camera.

I use the cameras to watch my three dogs while I'm away.

The Pros:
1. The price is right, generally less than $100.
2. The picture quality during daylight is good (not V.Good, nor Excellent)
3. The speed this camera transmitts to my router is far faster than my other camera, a DCS-G900. (The DCS-920 position replced my G900 a 802.11g)
4. I use the D-ViewCam and like it a lot. Rather useless unless you have at least 2 cameras or you want to record.

The Cons:
1. Digital Zoom on the DCS-920 is near useless; it gets so blurry the added digital magnification is near useless.
2. The setup with a linksys router can be trickey and requires some serious understanding. When I got my first one, several years ago, I called D-Link Tech Support and they were fantastic!!! They guided me through every step. (It was an American Tech support guy in the USA) I have used the knowledge I gained from that setup over the years as I bought new cameras. Have never used a D-Link router.
3. The unit is in no way moisture proof, let alone weather proof. It is solely for indoor use.

I have provided a link to my outdoor camera to give you an idea how it performs. If you are using Firefox, you will not see the time stamp as it updates that you will see on IE 6,7 or 8.

I will leave this link up for a few weeks to help you decide. It's the back of my house; you may see one of my three dogs occasionally. You can try the zoom feature.

The camera is mouted in my outdoor lawn equipment shed...pictures included.

I live in the CST zone.

I hope this helps.





3 out of 5 stars Not bad for a starter camera.   August 21, 2008
A. Cox
First, be warned... do not try Dlink on-line support. The don't reply. Use the call-in number (to India). If you are able to get the camera working, the picture quality is pretty good. The low light conditions could be better. The DCS920 has inconsistent fps results. Sometimes I get 30fps, other times it gets less than 1 fps. I am using a dlink wireless router, so they should have optimal compatibility. The nice thing about this camera is in the manual setup mode (web based), there is a copy-paste code that makes it easy to broadcast on your website. I do not care for the d-link view software that was included. It's not always easy to get it to acknoledge the existence of the camera.
