Love this camera, everything works except for the life of me I cannot get ANY push notifications to work when its nighttime. I had switched to the AmcrestView Pro 2 app recently when PUSH stopped working on all my other cameras. Still won't work. As soon as disable night mode in the app, push works ...

I am able to get notifications so far on AVPro 2 but I see no options in there for detecting humans and vehicles, this is very important to have this capability to ward off unwanted motion detect notifications. Hope they add it soon, this will do for the moment. Wait just found the SMD setting now, ...

Is anyone else having issues with this? I have two cams testing this at the moment, I can plug in more if necessary, but the: IP8M-VB2696EW-AI, and the: IP8M-T2669EW-AI are currently having exact same issue. Have reinstalled app on TWO phones (Androids) I can see motion detect events in the playback...

Revo, why are they calling this a "new release" if you were posting about it back here in September? Just Curious...

Thanks for input, but this is for use when I travel which is for lengthy periods of time in camper. Camper is solar powered, and I only use the phone currently as a hotspot for all my internet and computer needs. I mostly want it to spot wildlife that may wander by during the night.

My Solution.... Instead of trying to hook in direct from laptop to camera via ethernet, I tried something I never tried before which was to put my phone in Hotspot Mode, and then reset the camera and then use the "SoftAP" method outlined in the manual. I disconnected the phone from my home...

I set a static ip address on it when I was using it on my network. I did finally get it to show up on the Amcrest IP tool, but still am unable to connect via the web browser. Will try again tommorrow. I'm just looking for anyway to use this cam as a night vision cam for my camper, it would be nice t...

I would like to use this camera connected directly to my computer laptop, as a way to use it as an outdoor camera for my camper. I just want to connect directly to ethernet port, not thru internet. I know the cameras static IP is 192.168.0.205 and I can even ping it when I set my ethernet adapters a...

I was JUST going to install ASP on my backup laptop, and I saw this thing for download with todays date on it. So I was surprised to see this post from Sept. Can't find anything on it. I may install it just to look around in a bit, but first I have to get ASP going.

I'll check back.

I'm guessing the answer is no, but I have a 5x optical zoom on my IP8M-VB2696EW-AI; and everytime I change the zoom level I have to change the detection area.

Thanks.
