4GOOD VALUE; INSTALLATION CAN BE DIFFICULTMay 31, 2012
By P. M. Gross
UPDATE - NOV. 28, 2012.

Major system crash. Had to reinstall the Trendnet camera. Took more than an hour with two calls to customer service. In a plug-and-play era, there are just too many settings on the software that not only need to be entered but must be entered correctly. Rating reduced from 5* to 4*, not because I don't like the product, I still do, but because the software is so difficult to set up.

IMPORTANT NOTICE- OCTOBER 27, 2012.

The SECURVIEW APP that allows iPhone / iPad users to access their cameras has been updated for IOS6 and now works with the camera. Also, turning the iPhone sideways gives an expanded view.

INTRODUCTION:

This is an update of my review of the IP 422W. We recently acquired an IP 422WN for a second location. Perhaps this information will help avoid calls to customer service (who is actually very good at talking through problems).

I am not going to repeat much of the features discussion here but rather, deal with installation and other issues that may be useful.

There are as many as FIVE sequential objectives to the installation process: Camera works when attached to the router; camera still works when removed from the router; camera works with access from outside networks; recording, email and other functions are enabled; camera can be accessed thru IPHONE or similar.

TO GET A PICTURE:

-Make sure the camera is wired to the router; the router is attached to the modem; everything including the camera is powered on; internet access is working.

-Install and run the IP software.

-Follow the installation instructions carefully. The first task is to have the router recognize the camera's fixed IP address using IP Setup. Write down that address and then click on it. The default user name and passwords, if requested, are ADMIN:ADMIN.

-If the program asks to install an active x control (perhaps more than once), click on the appropriate "allow" box or ribbon.

-Next, under SETUP-NETWORK, give the camera a STATIC IP ADDRESS even if the router has a DHCP (not fixed - dynamic) address (we will deal with the router later). The first line is the IP already noted; the subnet mask is probably 255.255.255.0; the default gateway and primary DNS should be the first 3 entries of the IP address plus the number 1 for the last box. The last line should be 4.2.2.2.

-Once the monitor shows a picture, note that the camera has a MANUAL FOCUS LENS. Put the camera in its expected location, watch the picture and slowly turn the lens from the edge with one finger until the focus is as sharp as possible. In mostly natural light, change the setting under VIDIO/AUDIO-CAMERA to OUTDOORS.

TO GO WIRELESS WITHIN THE HOME NETWORK

To go wireless within your network:

-Make sure to have the ROUTER IP address (192.168.1.1, for example - look it up by brand on the web). Also, have any previously set up router user name and password (default is probably admin:admin) and the encryption key if used. If any of this information is unavailable, it may be necessary to hard reset the router and run the router set up program again.

-From the camera's SETUP-NETWORK-WIRELESS: Check ENABLE. Click on Site Survey; highlight your own home network; make sure the name appears in the box; set up the same encryption and key used for the router. Click all the appropriate boxes including the correct authentication method.

-DISCONNECT the camera from the router; power it down; power it up; wait about a minute until the unit spins and resets.

TO ACCESS CAMERA FROM REMOTE NETWORKS

If wireless works and remote access is needed, note the following:

-It will be necessary, especially if other items (TIVO, printer) are connected to the network or if the IP blocks port 80, to change the http port to, for example, 8005. (SETTINGS-NETWORK-NETWORK). If the camera port is changed, then it is also necessary to log into the router to CHANGE THE PORT FORWARDING for the camera to the same selected port.

-As I understand it, every web-enabled computer has a unique public IP address given by its internet provider. Typing "what is my IP" into a search engine will return the current IP address. Most providers do not give their customers a fixed (permanent) IP address without charging an additional fee so providers can and do change addresses of their clients on a random basis. This doesn't matter for accessing the internet, but it does matter if another computer wants to reach your computer (and the camera attached wirelessly to the router). Accordingly, to have remote camera access, a (free) account with dyndns or equivalent is needed to keep track of the current IP address.

-Go to dyndns . org from the computer you are using to install the camera (so that dyndns has a starting IP). Create a user name and password for dyndns and then create a camera account under My Hosts (TWO free accounts are allowed).

-For remote access, remember to start the address with http:// and end with :8005 (or the forwarded port). The center should be username dot dyndns dot org (Amazon does not allow URL's in reviews).

-The camera's password can be changed under SETUP-USER.

TO RECORD EVENTS, UPLOAD TO FTP, SEND EMAIL, etc.

-For the cameral to record or send notification on a fixed schedule or if movement is detected, there are THREE software settings areas: EVENTS CONFIG; MOTION DETECT; EVENTS SERVER. Visit all of them and check the appropriate boxes.

-FTP upload will provide web access to recorded events. For FTP notification, the host address should be in the form of 00.00.00.00, NOT (ftp or h__p). There seem to be very few free FTP sites. Drivehq . com provides good web access but charges a monthly fee. They will give you their ftp address after joining.

-To get an email every time an event occurs requires specific settings. Trendnet says that the camera will only work through a Yahoo mail account which is free. SMTP line will be SMTP dot mail dot Yahoo dot com; port will be 587; encryption will be STARTTLS; authentication will be SMTP.

IPHONE, etc.

-There is free IPHONE APP called SECURVIEW that will access this camera. Note that the APP needs the camera's CURRENT IP address. If the connection suddenly fails, go to dyndns to find the new IP address.

SUMMARY

On balance, the IP-422WN works as advertised. The panning range is impressive; the picture is reasonable in good light and OK in low light (single light bulb) but somewhat grainy in poor light. Digital zoom does not give a sharp picture. The lens needs to be properly focused in advance by hand. The written instructions are incomplete but telephone customer service is good.

We wish that the lens was sharper and that it could be focused remotely.

Still, this camera may be the best available for the price at this time.

5Excellent camera for the price.Sep 08, 2011
By Nirio Dones
For the price of this camera, I'm very satisfied with the results. Image quality is decent. This is a stand alone camera, no computer needs to be on at all times for remote viewing. There is a free app for the Iphone, I do recommend the paid one (It gives you full screen viewing and zoom) A little cryptic on the instruccions for set-up. You will need to connect it to a pc via ethernet (cable provided) to change the default IP to one in the range of your router. Also you need to enable port fowarding, (Default is 80) in your router to the IP of the camera, hence a static IP for the camera is best. It took me a couple hours to figure it all out, it could have taken less if the instruccions were more clear. Pan and tilt is fairly responsive (Roughly a 2 second delay in my case.) Remote viewing hasn't failed to connect yet. The only 2 things I don't like is that you can't trigger a manual recording from either Iphone app nor you can record a zoomed image. It is FTP capable and has motion sensor capabilities that can triger a recording.

4Very SatisfiedAug 30, 2011
By Dennis Durante
I have no idea why the only review on this cameras is from an experienced egghead kinda guy and he hates it. I have a fair amount of experience myself not a lot in networking but I do build my own computers and have done so for many years now. I have three of these cameras all up and running perfectly and wirelessly in about an hours time with no need to call customer service at all! They are great especially at the price. I would say my only complaint is the focus is a bit soft but not even enough to bother me and I work for a major television network so video is my thing. I would totally recommend this camera but you do need to have a bit of knowledge of computer networking or just have a friend help.

3Decent Camera - Not Mac FriendlyDec 14, 2011
By Mike Jandreau
I, like many, bought this camera to keep an eye on our puppy while working in my office, a few floors away on the other side of the house.

For what it is, it's a great camera. Once configured, it does its job, and shows you video.

However, it's not Mac friendly. Even in VMWare running Windows 7, I had issues configuring the camera. I've been a heavy computer user for decades (since DOS was the best thing you could get), so I know my way around things, thankfully. The IPConfig software that comes with the camera couldn't see the camera on my network, despite resetting it and following the instructions twice.

I finally found information on TrendNet's website saying that Mac users could configure the camera via IP address. So I began the guessing game trying to find what IP my camera had gotten from the DHCP server when I connected it. I finally found it at .120 and went through the configuration process and got the camera up and running wirelessly.

In addition to the setup not being Mac friendly, the software they give you is Windows only. I don't hold that against TrendNet. Most IP camera manufacturers only build software for Windows. I don't know why, but they do. Luckily I already have SecuritySpy ([...]) that I'd been using with my other cameras around the house. It's a pricey app, but it works exactly like you expect it too.

Except for the "Zoom" function of the camera. That is not at all Mac friendly, whether it's via the web interface or any IP camera app I tried. The *only* way that you can zoom is through Internet Explorer, with Active X. And, from what I can tell, only IE7 or 8. IE 9 did not work at all with their interface. Luckily I still had a copy of Windows XP in a virtual machine that I could use to confirm this was the case. Not a huge deal, because digital zoom is garbage anyway.

The iOS app from TrendNet works just fine - however, you need to know your camera's IP address, port number and username/password combination to configure it. If you don't know that information, you're out of luck. (Be warned, there are other apps that come up when you search for TrendNet in the App Store. Be sure to get the official one, or you're bound to have bad luck.)

Once I got through all the annoyances of setting the camera up, I could finally use it. And, like I said, it does what it's supposed to. The panning and tilting is a bit slower than I anticipated (this is my first PTZ camera), but still completely useable. I configured the Pan and Tilt functions to go 10 degrees per instance (this is configurable through the web based interface, and presumably the Windows application as well), which is more than quick enough to track the puppy around the kitchen.

To sum up:

Things that aren't Mac friendly: Configuration, Software, Zooming, Motion Detection
Ease of use once configured: Simple.
Value: Not bad. There are many PTZ cameras that are far more expensive and produce the same quality images and videos.
Bells and whistles: I haven't had it long enough to play with everything, but there do appear to be plenty of settings you can configure: email yourself on motion detected, two-way audio, nightmode

Overall I'm not *unhappy* with the camera, I just wish the Mac support was a little more clearly spelled out before I bought it. While I have no problem digging into configuration settings via an IP address, others may not know how to do that, or just flat out not want to. With how many Mac users there are out there now, manufacturers need to step up their game and embrace those users, and make their products more Mac friendly. If I had bought this for my mother or sister, neither of them would know how to configure this without asking me.

5Video to PhoneJun 28, 2012
By SpecialsSeeker
One of the best features of this surveillance camera is that I can see what is going by using my phone. I do not always have access to my computer so this is perfect for me. It really puts my mind to ease since I can monitor what is going on with my son when I am not home.
