Dan H Posted March 25, 2016 Author Share Posted March 25, 2016 For the topic we're thinking about "How to setup an IP camera to watch over your tank." Another possibility is just Cameras in general... Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan H Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 No kidding! I may have to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timfish Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Both have been growing on sand, not plugs, and the larger one has spread enough it can be very easily fragged into three colonies. Not sure what the policy is but I was thinking of starting the bidding at $10 for the smaller one and $20 for the larger one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan H Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 You can set minimums... Just write it on the bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juiceman Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I will pickup some chips, sodas, and other snacks. Feel free to bring any other things you like or Beverages of the Adult persuasion. I got my new IP camera in today and will test everything out to make sure there are no hiccups when we go through how to set it up! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan H Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 Something else I would like to try this meeting that was thought up during the Beer:30 meetup... After we all get a chance to introduce ourselves, I would like to take some time to allow anyone who's either been in the hobby less than 6 months, or who's tank is < 6 months old to have 5-10 minutes to just tell us about their setup, ask questions to the whole group, etc. It's not to put them on the spot, but give them an opportunity to really talk and learn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was new, I'd be pretty intimidated to ask questions to the whole group personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan H Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 I thought both were mentioned. Well, either way, we need to set aside some time for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gig 'em @ NDstructible Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I like this idea. Also trouble shooting since I set up a Foscam, but can only view it while on my own network. I've tried to allow pass throughs, but computers aren't my language and I'm lost For the topic we're thinking about "How to setup an IP camera to watch over your tank." Another possibility is just Cameras in general... Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gig 'em @ NDstructible Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I have looked at the Neptune forums on this issue. I think I need to call the Foscam help desk. I have a router that isn't the typical Linksys router and following the pass through steps doesn't translate perfectly with my router set up.

Another possibility is just Cameras in general... Thoughts? Are you on AT&T Uverse by any chance? If so, it's them. My foscam has worked with port forwarding for the last few years, but they just disabled this unless you specifically go through them (not your router) to allow it.

You have to tell them to put the router into modem mode if you're using a separate router. Same with time Warner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, I have Time Warner at the moment. I have time warner also. I had to fight with them over the phone to turn the router into modem mode so I could use my own router. Once they did that, everything started working. I got you gig em! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gig 'em @ NDstructible Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 So you think it's a problem on the internet provider side? I have my own router that wasn't supplied by TW, I just assumed I hadn't figured out the settings on it yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
