FOSFI9831WPW

The Foscam FI9831P is Foscam's latest "Plug & Play" camera featuring the ability to connect via smartphone by simply scanning the QR code on the underside of the camera. Bypassing the need to access your router and setup port forwarding, the FI9831P can be set up effortlessly by anyone, even those with very little IT experience. 

The Foscam FI9831P Megapixel Wireless IP Camera features high definition 1280 x 960p video resolution, h.264 video compression, built-in DVR via SD card (upto 32gb), two-way audio, wifi-N capability, pan/tilt, remote internet viewing, motion detection, night-vision as well as network video recording capability. In addition, it is smartphone compatible (iPhone, Android - app required) as well as viewable over the internet using standard browsers on PC (Firefox, IE & Chrome) or Mac (Safari only). The camera functions well as a smartphone baby, pet or elderly parent monitor or as part of a complete home/office security system with remote internet monitoring ability.

 

The FI9831P improves on the FI8910W by adopting high performance media and video processors capable of H.264 video compression which allows for ultra-smooth high definition video transmission, increased FPS and minimal bandwidth consumption. In addition, due to the small file sizes produced by H.264 video compression it has the ability to save tremendous disk space when doing video recording. 

 

 

Your Security, in Your Hands

With instant mobile access, protecting what you care about has never been easier. The night vision equipped camera can watch your home when you are away or sleeping and alert you to motion as soon as it occurs. Video is streamed over a secure, encrypted connection, and can also be recorded to a hard drive absolutely free without any expensive storage fees. And if you ever decide that you would like online storage for recordings, Foscam offers a fair cloud subscription that is never mandatory, but available if you need it.

Use as a Pet Monitor

When he's watching out for you while you're away, you can watch him to make sure that he's safe, sound, and out of trouble. Motion detection alerts can notify you when he enters a certain part of the house and the camera?s two-way audio functionality enables you at any time to say hello (or tell him to get off the furniture).

 

No Waiting, No Worrying

With live streaming of your baby's nursery, at any time and place you can know instantly that he is happy and comfortable. For the times that you can't help being gone, you won't have to be absent. Your eyes and ears will be there whenever they're needed so that you will always know how he is doing.

 

More Sight Is Foresight

Monitoring your business when you're away gives an extra level of control to make sure that things have been, are, and will be running as usual. You can save thousands over the cost of a CCTV system with the cutting edge of IP camera technology, instantly accessible from anywhere on your computer or mobile phone. You will never be out of the loop, even when you?re out of the store.

Products works well, Good Customer Support - Manual poorly t

Pros: Nice compact camera - works well Nice Looking Easy to mount and install Customer support is excellent - they will do what is necessary to get the product working. Cons: Product Owner manual is poorly translated into English. A lot of sentences are in 'Chinglish' and difficult to understand what is trying to be said. Technical manuals should be properly translated for the market intended. Theirs looks like it was done by a co-op student. Other thoughts: I had difficulty with the iPhone EZ installation process. My router refused to connect the camera. When I called customer service, their rep via a 'Team Viewer' interactive session took control of my computer and helped me install the cameras through my stubborn router. Their people know what they are doing and are very helpful. Everything works perfect!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
