@Bubbah
Too bad. I got answer from Foscam that my ipcam is a Clone FI8908W and they said Foscam cannot work with clone camera. But I saw quite a lot of ppl here flash their clone with Foscam firmware. What should I do.......

@Alain Ho
the safest is to contact tech@foscam.com with your DeviceID (appears in device status page) so they can confirm what fw update you can apply. They usually reply quite fast.

2010-12-13T08:20:26.379Z

I just got a ipcam which I though it was a Foscam. It was sad that I didnt read this blog before order it and I determine just by the specification and it just look similar. However, the firmware version is not following what I read from here. It was (sys_ver='21.22.2.19'). Since the original web interface is simply unacceptable, I take some risk and flash the webUI with foscam one and now it is (app_ver='2.4.8.15'). And it accept the new webUI and thus I have this unit running with foscam UI. My question is, can it be confirm that this unit is compatible with foscam firmware? I still want to update the firmware as some of the function like preset location is not supported in this firmware and I think the loaded firmware is quite old. Or are there any ways to tell if this is a compatible model?

Just a note to say I got a genuine Foscam F18918W from amazon-sell on ebay and very quick. Camera all working but some difficulties in the setup, and its locking up when using WiFi (WAP+PSK) and accessed via IE. Using IP Cam View on Android and that's good except no audio support until buy full version (fair enough).
Overall good, but the Foscam utility is a bit flakey.

2010-10-18T05:11:09.738+01:00

Hello! A month ago bought clone on FI8908W from DX and everything was OK! After replacing firmware with ver. 11_14_2_17 disappeared Web UI. Try in IP Camera Tool to add it to deliver message "Error file of Web UI" or "Refused by the camera"
I tried to reset the button at the bottom but does not help. Visible camera work turns up when you turn, connects to the router. Is there a solution?
Thanks!

Just to throw in some new things here about the new firmwareon my Foscam FI8905W. These functions are NOT yet documented in the CGI SDK 2.1.

There seems to be a new P2P mode or something like that. Try http://[yourcamip]/get_p2p.cgi and http://[yourcamip]/set_p2p.cgi

These functions do NOT exist in the WebUI from 27/7/2010 but do exist in my 100% foscam camera.

@Bubbah thanks :)

I finally solved the problem with my FS-613A-M136 (Clone Foscam) with Foscam firmware following the steps in http://www.gadgetvictims.com/2009/12/bring-your-fi8908w-paperweight-back-to.html and the correct firmware. In the next days, I'll prepare a manual with the lastest firmware for Easynp FS-613A-M136

2010-07-01T02:05:04.066+01:00

I fixed it! For some reason, Device Embeded Web UI was completely erased from the camera, and I used IP camera tool using Parallels (Windows XP) on Mac. It asked me to update/reinstall WEB UI which I did. In less than 2 minutes, camera was up and running. This beauty is alive again! :)))

Hi Bubbah,

I downloaded latest firmware for my FI8908w (fw11.14.2.17) and tried to update my camera with it. Foolishly, I did it over my wireless network (didn't know it won't work). I don't believe my camera is bricked... even though, since after the update I can not log into my camera configuration page, the green light on the camera is flashing, it's not constantly lit.

Is there any way to log into the configuration page now ? I don't understand, why this firmware update would change it's IP. I did few other updates without any problems in the past. I know I screwed up with updating it over the wireless network, but I truly hope there is a way to make this beauty work again. Are you aware of any method that might help ?

Thanks again

2010-04-27T11:29:57.952+01:00

@Ale,
could it be that you have got some of those counterfeit Foscam (like those sold on Dealextreme.com) which all have the same Wifi MAC address ?
You should try for a test to have one wired, and another one wireless. Would they both appear in IP camera tool then ?

2010-04-27T11:14:07.835+01:00

Hi Bubbah, you already helped me in the past...

I have 4 foscam cameras in my lan.
IP camera tool can detect just one cam at a time: I have always just 1 line in the camera list.
Why?

The problem is that the same happens in the web browser: I have to reload the page many many times before the camera is detected.

Any help??

Thank you!
