This camera and the R4 suffer from buggy firmware or mechanics.

Camera works great, however, the app keeps telling me a firmware update which never works

Upgraded the firmware in Firefox web-client, all the settings for recording to my WD Mybook Mirror NAS work great, and was even getting the email alerts

Upon receipt of the camera, it did not work straight from the box, the firmware was faulty

New firmware might have fixed the problem

They have one-click upgrade for firmware and robust cloud service, which suggests to me that FOSCAM will continueimproving their firmware and providing strong support for their products in the foreseeable future.

Except for buggy latest firmware

Nice i

I think I may need a few if it, in fact, proves to be as useful as I imagine

Just wish desktop monitoring software was better, and microphone quality is not as great as in previous model.

Not working as well as on FoscamPro

When I got this one I was confused as to why this one didn't have that feature and thought it was a problem.

Setting up the plug-in was confusing in my opinion and that led to confusion as to why I couldn't see the "Playback" tab on Firefox.

Not working as well as on FoscamPro

We bought the foscam a week ago, it arrived promptly and worked exactly as we expected

It either turns on prematurely and no button to shut it off manually or it turns on as intended but focuses on a bright surface lowering the exposure of everything which makes viewing at night as good as not even having

Really easy to install and setup; the video quality is excellent and the sound is also surprisingly good from such a small unit!We bought this to keep an eye on our dog during the day, as well as for security when his walker comes, etc.

I have installed cameras that cost 4 times as much that don't work half as

Small camera that works as it is supposed toI got this camera recently to keep my home safe

E-mail functions work nicely too, although trial and error with settings may be required for SMTP TLS and ports

Foscam recently sent me an e-mail stating severe vulnerabilities were discovered on many of their cameras...including the R2.
