C. Setting Up Your Camera: Wired Connection via Foscam App

(Recommended)

Note: We highly recommend that you first begin the setup process by connecting your camera to your

Internet router with an Ethernet cable. After setup is successful, you’ll be able to unplug the cable and

login to your wireless network for WiFi operability.

Minimum Requirements: To help ensure a smoother video experience on the smartphone, it’s

recommended that your smartphone has the following:

 iOS: version 8.1 or higher.

 Android: 4.1 or higher, using a device with a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) function.

Camera Setup Steps

1.

Please mount the antenna and make sure it is in a vertical upright position.

2.

Connect the camera to your Internet router using an Ethernet cable.

3.

Connect the power adapter to the camera, and wait for a few moments until the camera alerts you

that the “Wired connection succeeded.”

4.

From your smartphone, search for “Foscam App” via the App Store or Google Play Store.

Download, install and open the app to begin configuration.

5.

Under “My Cameras,” select “Tap + to add new camera” and then scan the QR code, which is

located at the bottom of your camera (see screenshots below).

6. On the “Which way to choose” screen, confirm that “Wired” is underlined in blue (upper-left corner)

and tap “Ready.” Wait a few moments for a message confirming that the setup process has been

completed.

D. Connecting Your Camera Over WiFi

Once you’ve added your camera successfully using the wired connection method above, tap your live

camera feed from the “My Cameras” screentap the gear in the upper-righttap “Network”tap the

WiFi network you wish to connect to and enter your WiFi password. Note: You’ll need to connect to

the 2.4GHz network if your wireless router is dual-band—most newer models have 2.4GHz and 5GHz

channels (see screenshot below).
