Having trouble with a D-Link DCS-900 Fast Ethernet camera. Anyone here had any experience with this bit of kit?

I can't get it to publish web cam images to the 'net for people to see.
It requires a login (which I don't want to give out to people, plus having to ask people to log in is a bit tedious any time they want to see the webcam).
I think I'm gonna send it back...s'not really what I needed.
You can probably get other software.
Never mind: I'm getting rid of it.
let me know
Sorry mate: we've sent it back already! Try eBuyer - that's where we got ours.
They are indeed particularly useful for internal (over LAN/WAN) use, but the problem with ours is that it wouldn't publish images to the Internet for the public to see without the user needing to log in to see them.
My fault really: shoulda checked the description fully.
You should have been able to given a correct setup. Ah well, they're back now.
Plus I've re-read the description on eBuyer - it doesn't state it very clearly there either. Oh well!
