IP Cam Config lets you use your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad to connect supported "Windows Only" Ethernet and WiFi network IP cameras to your local network.

+ Overview +

One of the ways to get the most out of our popular iCam mobile app is to set up a number of WiFi network IP cameras around your house so that you are not just limited to monitoring the room occupied by the computer. One issue for non-Windows users is that the majority of the more "reasonably-priced" WiFi cameras officially only support Windows.

What most users dont know is that you can still connect to and view these cameras from a non-Windows device once they have been configured to connect to your local network. The problem is that the configuration applications included with these cameras are often Windows-only.

If you do not have a Windows computer at your disposal to run the camera manufacturers configuration application then the simplest alternative solution is to use IP Cam Config to configure the camera to connect to your local network.

+ What cameras are supported? +

IP Cam Config has been tested as being compatible with the following AirLink101 network IP cameras:

- SkyIPCam1500W
- SkyIPCam1747W
- SkyIPCam500W
- SkyIPCam747W
- SkyIPCam500

Cameras from other manufacturers (such as TrendNET and DIGITUS, for example) seem to share the same internals as the AirLink101 cameras that we tested, so they should also be configurable with IP Cam Config.

As more specific camera manufacturers and models are confirmed to be working with IP Cam Config we will also be adding those to the list.

+ How To Use IP Cam Config To Configure A Network IP Camera +

To configure a new network IP camera using IP Cam Config simply follow the installation instructions included with the camera, substituting IP Cam Config for the manufacturers configuration application.

Once you have connected the camera to your local network router via an Ethernet network cable, power up the camera and wait approximately 30 seconds for the camera to start up before launching the IP Cam Config application.

When you first launch IP Cam Config, the application will scan your local network to find any compatible network IP cameras. Once the app has finished searching, select which camera you would like to configure, and assign it either a Static IP address or let your router assign the camera one automatically via DHCP. (Dont forget to enter the cameras Administrator Login and Password, which are usually both "admin" by default.)

Once the configuration has been changed your camera should restart and you should be able to connect to it using its newly assigned IP address within about 30 seconds or so.

Latest reviews of IP Cam Config app for iPhone and iPad

Brilliant. Simple.
If you administer IP cameras for your home or business... this app is a must-have. By removing the oft-random necessity of obtaining (or guessing) the default IP address of a new camera, this app lets you leapfrog ahead, assigning it the IP address of your choice and allowing you easy access to web-configurable cams (most of them). This could have saved me hours of technical support calls to far-off locales... save yourself and your sanity, and set up your cameras quickly (and view them on your iPhone with iCam).
Does not work
I was charged for the IPad and IPhone and it did not work and any device no one to contact for help .... Do not waste your money
Only for IT people
This app worked but I still couldnt use my IP cam with Icam source. Do not buy this app unless you are an IT person. Otherwise it is a waste of money. The tech support offered by SKJM is sincere but sorely lacking.
This App doesnt work.
Why does apple let some people steal our money? It is really frustrating.
Waste of time
I love the company (icam) keep my buck but this app didnt do what I expected it to do. Not sure if the error is my fault but "no camera found".
