Can’t complain for all the features it has at its price!,
The camera I got was branded EasyN, but the box art shown on the product info page matches the box I got. Some people claim they have Foscam, Apexis, Hootoo, etc. brand, but I think it’s the same camera branded in different brands to accommodate different markets. I admit, it would HELP if you are tech savvy or at least have some knowledge in network configuration to expedite the set up and get the camera running, but that’s not required. This camera isn’t exactly the most fool-proof camera in the market, but its feature make up for it.
The instructions are readable, albeit choppy due to the poor Chinese-to-English translation. OK here’s the deal. I’m going to write a lengthy semi-review, semi-how-to for this awesome IP camera seeing the need for an instruction for Mac users. First of all, I am a Mac user running on OS X 10.7.2 Lion and I got this bad boy up and running within an hour. For all you Mac users out there, you’ll need to have temporary access to a Windows machine.
If you don’t have a Windows machine, see UPDATE 4 at the end of this review – then follow steps 3 and forward. I’m writing this review under the presumption that the typical user has no knowledge of MAC access control list or WiFi DHCP client table from your router to set-up the camera it via WiFi. You need it to run the application that allows you to detect and configure the camera’s IP. Unfortunately, this application is written for Windows only. But that’s all you need a Windows machine for. Once you configure the camera’s IP address to work with your LAN, then you can use the web interface and configure a whole sleuth of other options, including the alarm feature, FTP, Mail and other. So without adieu, let’s do this!
I’ve taken screenshots to help accommodate the mini guide below. So check out the user-submitted images for 7+ images I’ve added for directions on how to proceed. The instruction is for connecting the camera to a LAN – I chose this route because my WiFi network is secured over several layers of security (Sonic Wall fire wall, MAC control, etc.) and it’s just easier to get the cam up and running through the LAN.
0.) Connect your IP camera to your LAN via ethernet and plug in the power supply.
1.) Get access to a Windows machine. I dual-booted to Windows Vista via Boot Camp. Make sure this Windows machine has access to your LAN.
2.) Run the application with the file name, DevFind.exe – you can find it in the directory, /EasyN F2 series IP camera installation CD/software. My included install disc was a blank CD-R disc!!! so I had to download the CD content ZIP from the manufacturer’s web site: “easyntech . com / ShowDownload . asp ? id = 34″ you can download the manuals in PDF format from the site too).
3.) Run the DevFind.exe to locate your camera, then modify the camera’s IP address so that it matches your LAN’s IP range structure, subnet mask and gateway. The default IP address assigned to the camera should be indicated in a silver sticker located underneath the camera. The same sticker can also be found on the exterior of the box. Basically, the default IP should be something along the line of 192 . 168 . 1 . 126 and access port 81 (it could be different). Since my LAN’s IP range structure is 192.168.0.x, I have assigned the camera an IP address of 192 . 168 . 0 . 155. I changed out the default port of 81 to 310. Understand me so far? Once you got that down, click on the “APPLY” button to make the changes.
4.) Click on the “OTHERS” tab under the Equipment Information field. Take note of the information located in the “MAC” field, it should be a 12 letter/number string of characters.
5.) If you have access controlled enabled in your router, then follow this step. If not, you can skip. What access control means is you only allow certain network devices permission to connect to your LAN. Even if the connecting client knows your WEP/WPA/WPA2 password, they still will not be able to connect to your Wi-Fi unless their device is registered to the access control list. The unique identifier of the network device is its MAC address. If you have this enabled, then add the camera’s MAC address you’ve just jotted down in the previous step to your router’s access control list. The convention should be XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX where X is a number or a character from the alphabet. So if your camera’s MAC address is 00A8F700F341, enter it as 00:A8:F7:00:F3:41 Update and restart your router after entering. If you have the means to reserve IP address designation on your router, I would do so. Since I assigned the camera an IP address of 192 . 168 . 0 . 155, I would reserve this address on the router to the camera’s MAC address so that this IP doesn’t get reassigned by the DHCP to another network device by accident.
6.) You’ll definitely need to port-forward your camera if you plan to remote view from outside. In your router setup, go…

Delivers What’s Promised,
Now that I have it configured, this product performs admirably. Had a heckuva time getting it to work with my wireless LAN – every time that the Ethernet (Cat 5) cable was pulled the connection died because the router wouldn’t assign a wireless LAN IP. Turns out that the unit will not enable the assigning of a wireless IP if the router has MAC filtering enabled. Disabled MAC filtering and Voila! – the wireless IP was assigned and the camera is working perfectly locally as well as over the Internet via dyndns. Satisfied customer.
