OK ..Its a chinese clone of an Easy N IP camera... I have managed to get it working on a wired ethernet cable with minimal problems.. It sees the plusnet network ..the correct key ..the ip address of the camera ok and the camera works 100% ok with the wired ethernet cable.
I have tried altering all the different authentication security types..left the cable plugged in for half an hour then removed it to get it on wireless but once the wire is removed it simply stops working..
I had a little look using my minimal experience of logging into the technicolour router and it is set to the default of accepting additional wireless devices
I guess my question is..is the router up to it...has anyone successfully connected an IP camera to the standard technicolour router??...should I be looking at buying a better router?
Like I said I am no expert but an enthusiastic amateur that ultimately wants to set up a number of ip cameras in the home to keep an eye remotely using androd phone on pets
I would be extremely grateful if there is anyone out there that might be able to help me on this as I think at the moment I've reached the end of my technical abilities..Many thanks

I guess basically my question is has anybody successfully got an IP camera to work wirelessly on the standard Technicolour plusnet modem????
I don't mind purchasing another router if this is deemed the problem..Any suggestions on what i buy..something that could support up to 5 cameras with an easy interface to set up port forwarding with the non technical in mind?

Look at the router to see what devices are connected.
In another browser tab, login into the Plusnet user portal BEFORE clicking the fault & ticket links

I remember that I would use ethernet to do configuration settings on the camera then pull the power, unconnect the ethernet cable and then power up the camera.
This was the only way to get wifi on line with it. Pulling the ethernet cable whilst powered up did exactly as described - nothing!
So, power down the camera, pull the Ethernet cable and then power up the camera again. It should be seen then!

Have you tried changing the wireless SSID on the router. Some devices don't like long SSID's. Try changing the default PlusNetWireLessnnnnn to something simpler, say 8 characters.

I recognise you don't support this sort of thing and am not even asking for instructions on doing it..but it would be really helpful to know if anyone HAS got an IP camera working wirelessley on the TG582N router supplied by Plusnet..
(Thanks for all the replies from other forum members going to take a look at the links and have another go)
The standard instructions supplied with these EBay IP cameras are laughable to be honest and about as useful as a chocolate radiator

Quote from: jogger321 Just been doing some more research and I'm wondering if there is some conflict on the security settings?? I have tried them all but no joy... Whatever I do once the cable is disconnected between the router and camera it freezes
Have you tried rebooting the camera AFTER you have disconnected the cable yet?

One of my colleagues has 3 IP cameras connected via his TG582n, 2 wireless and 1 wired I think. He's not in the office at the moment but when he comes back I'll confirm.
