I am a distributor of Wireless IP cams and have been using Active Webcam v 11.5 as the surveilence software to supply with the cams, however I did an installation of 7 wireless IP cams recently and have found that AW seems to be accessing the cameras slower and slower as I add cameras to the extent that now I frequently cannot even get the software to open some of them.
The hardware should be ok as it is 2.6 Gig dualcore with 2 gig memory with no other software installed or running.

If I access with IE the cams open immediately.

My question..............has anybody using Cam Universal encountered such problems and if so what is the solution. I cannot try C U as the test version can only open 2 cams at a time and to buy just to try might turn out expensive.

Hello,

I can't say something about the behaviour on your system!
It depends on so many factors such as, network bandwidth, streaming mode, still picture mode, receiving interval, video resolution, CPU, used functions (video record, motion detector, scheduler, ...) etc..
I know, that some users use several network cameras parallel, but I don't know about the running parameters (which I have mentioned above)!
At the moment, in the trial version are only 2 camera possible. Sorry!

Marc,

Turns out to be a network problem. The data being sent over the network is simply too big.
