Hi!
I´m using ASUS WL500G as Router with PPPOE Access in Hybrid Mode together with my WL-HDD in Hybrid Mode. On the second device i hooked an USB Webcam. This is working fine internally but there is no access from Outside (WAN). The webcam is working with the WL500G (with dyndns access through WAN) but this is at the wrong place.... I´ve already tried to route the port 7776 to the WL-HDD with no success. Has anyone a solution for this wired scenario?
ciao,
JBK
Hi,
i've plugged on my wl500gw a Philips Toucam pro II.
all works from WAN, i can see image, but when i want to enable the security mode, i receive a lot of mails with pictures when the sense level is Low or medium and no mail if sense level is High !
Can i modify this value inside a file with telnat command ?
thanks
Hi,
i have modify both pwcx.o and pcw.o and use mvc (see thread 2420)
now, i don't know how send a email with an image as attach file
i think it's possible, because the security mode make this !
Somebody have a solution ?
Hi,
i use sendalarm to send a mail, but i search a command to send a file through ftp to an external web site
Somebody knows the procedure ?
thanks
I have WL-500g 1.9.2.7-6b and Lifetec LT9388 USB camera. I found this camera working on router but unfortunetly only twice. After upgrading software it worked but after reseting completly not working. Camera working OK on win Xp.
How can I start it manualy on this software.
Any others ideas?
When worked I found in log

Support WL-500gx this webcam - "Creative Labs Video Blaster WebCam Vista Plus" ??
I have installed a Logitech pro 4000 webcam, and it is working ok except for one thing. When movement is detected, and an email is sent, I cannot open the jpg files that are attached to the mail. In the mail there are 6 small jpg files. Is that right? I would have expected one only.
Does anybody have experience with this?
I am using Olegs firmware 1.9.2.7-6b.
Thanks - Peter.
I have a Philips ToUcamII which works perfectly with my WL500Gx. However, I noticed that the WAN speeds are affected by the cam. When it is connected, my maximum up -and download speeds are half (or worse) of what they should be. My other devices (USB Hub, printer, USB stick, USB HDD) do not cause this speed drop.
Does anybody what could cause this?
how fast or slow is your connection (kilobyte/sec please) ?Quote:

"Before" it is around 3000 Kbyte down and 1400 kbyte up
"After" it is around 1400 kbyte down and 400 Kbyte up.
Just plugging it in does the trick :(
Still the same problem. Any ideas? I have it as well when I use the old and the latest Asus fimware.... just doesn't make any sense...
same with me.
as i posted before, the webcam apps causing the cpu use above 60%
also very high memory usage.
my (non expert, non programmer) guess,
that's the cause
Hadn't checked that, but could be a good reason indeed...Quote:

What version of firmware did you have before upgrading? Your camera could be OV519(OV51x+) type and it need special version of OV51x driver. Look at http://alpha.dyndns.org/ov511/download.html. In your log for working camera you can see right driver:
an 1 00:00:12 kernel: ov51x.c: v1.65-1.10-mark : ov51x USB Camera Driver

Firmware: ASUS 1.9.2.7
Hi,
I just connected my webcam and the system log says "USB webcam: attached" but in fact it's not working. What does this message means?
I'm using the original Asus firmware, version 1.8.2; the webcam is a Samsung SNC-35.
Thanks in advance,
MatB
Well, loads of other ppl are having (or had) problems with their webcam. Search this forum to see if someone has a solution for you.
Also, try using the latest firmware from Oleg. It has a much more updated webcam driver, so perhaps your camerachip is now supported.
If using the lastest firmware doesn't help and the search didn't help either, then post a complete system log here and try to find out which chiptype is used in the webcam.
Can I connect to my webcam attached to my 500gx using tcp?
Hi,
So I plugged a logitech webcam on the USB port wl500gx (in other there is my USB key). I launched the webcam application (by clicking on preview on the web page) and it works fine.:cool:
But when I plug the hub on the USB port and the webcam on the hub, it doesn't work.:(
Oh I have to precise you that the hub has an external supply.
Do I have to add some nodes in the /dev/v4l directory ?
Do I need an additionnal driver for the hub ? :confused:
Thanks a lot ! ;)
Hi,
I'm using oleg's firmware v1.9.2.7-6b.
When running the webcam I have to give a user and password to connect.
These are the same as the one for logging in to the webinterface.
Is it possible to set a different one for the webcam ?
The other question is. Can I modify the html(asp) pages used for the webcam and use my own ?
Thanks,
Gene
Hello everyone,
I'm using Olegs firmware v1.9.2.7-6b.
I've followed the instructions on this website to get a working build environment. Now I can compile the complete stuff.
But I want to change the webcam behaviour.
I wanna use THTTPD as server for the images. Not using the activeX port.
And not using the default httpd server.
Where can I find in the source the stuff to change the behaviour when connecting the webcam to the usb bus ???
How can I force the system to use my rcamd version when testing it on the firmware and plugging in the camera ??
Gene
It should work fine without any change. Perhaps there's some incompatibility between webcam/hub. Try to reboot the router with connected webcam. Try to unplug/plug in the webcam while the router is running as well and check what's the matter using dmesg.Quote:

Hi, I bought the creative Vista cam which was one of two cams that were listed as "tested" in a list of supported cams in users guide. I´ve chosen the right driver in ASUS menu, but the cam still doesnt work. on the website http://192.168.1.1:7776/ShowWebCam.asp you can only see a message that page can´t be displayed. And if I try in asus menu "preview" - there´s just a margin of a picture but no picture or video inside. There´s nothing more to set up but it still doesn´t work. Do I have to do anything else.... Or am I doing anything wrong?????
Thanx for answer.....:)
Hi.
I have thttpd/2.25b PHP/5.0.4 starting on port 8081 up and running.
Q: Can I access the webcam via a php file on my thttpd server?
This line i thought would display the picture, but it does not!
<img src="../../../www/display.jpg" width="320" height="204">
What is wrong with this?
the solution was to make a kind of linking fil to the /www dir.
You can executede the following comand to make the file:
ln -s /www/display.jpg display.jpg
When you are in you own www (/opt/share/www)
Does anyone by any chance have this http://cgi.ebay.de/Nachtsicht-Webcam...QQcmdZViewItem
webcam working with wl500?
Who could recommend me a specific type (brand, model) of webcam that works perfectly with the premium router ?
I own a Logitech Clicksmart but it doesn't work.
I am using OLEG 1.9.2.7-7f-pre7 firmware. When WL500gd only attach the Logitech Pro 4000 webcam, it work properly. After I and an USB stick or Harddisk, the webcam do not work.
After checking the syslog, I found the webcam is detected but the PWC driver had not load. In checking the running process using PS, only the rcamdmain exist. (In case the webcam work, there also has 3 rcamd process running).
I try manually execute the rcamd, but did not success. (/dev/video error).
I try execute rcamdmain, the program seems looped forever(it do not return the cursor). After I press CTRL-Z, it can quit the situation with the webcam working.
What is the correct way to load the webcam driver? (I had try execute rcamdmain in POST-BOOT, this will brick the WL500gd !)
Also, when the webcam work, how can I have motion detection (email alert)?
Thanks,
WKWONG

Furthermore, how to setup motion alert to email?
I had done in web interface webcam setup, but no email at all.
(My esmtp had setup and tested it can send email)
Hi there,
after playing around a bit with my WL500gP I finally got the attached webcam working the way I needed... Using camsrv and not rcamd anymore.
But there is one strange thing, like using rcamd the camsrv spawns three times and eats up all the cpu power
which leads to a high loadaverage (which is not that bad, i know) which somehow bothers me because the device is getting hotter when doing that much and the accessibility suffers from it.Quote:
PID USER STATUS RSS PPID %CPU %MEM COMMAND
14565 root R 4208 14537 71.6 13.9 camsrv
14523 root S 4208 1 25.1 13.9 camsrv
14537 root S 4208 14523 0.0 13.9 camsrv
Is there any conclusion? Or even an idea why those processes keep spawning themselves? Firs I thought rcamd needs it, is threaded or whatnot, but camsrv is not...
It takes about four or five secconds like you can see here:
Is there any less cpu-power-consuming way to just get a fullquality (VGA is the max my cam does) picture without any timestamps on it serverd to the web?Quote:

Till I replaced it today, I used to have an old P1 with 133Mhz and 32MB ram doing the job running netbooted linux with vgrabbj... It took images every seccond and had a loadav around 0.2...
Is there anyone who can crosscompile vgrabbj ( http://vgrabbj.gecius.de/ )? I loved it because it is able to upload image via ftp :)
I'll take any advice to keep my load down and still get the image...

Hello Everybody
I bought a Genius Trek 310 Webcam and of course it doesn't work with my 500gP.
On the Cd I found a Linux driver.
Can somebody write me a step by step tutorial how can I active the webcam and access it from LAN/WAN?
And I would like a sample conf file for the stupid-ftpd or any other ftp server with comments.
Sorry I'm a newbie in Linux.
Thank You in advance.
Hi
Webcam is SN9C10x Chipset based, some more or less well working drivers avaliable for linux, but not avaliable on asus for now (someone has to build and test them).
Stupid-ftp is configurable by webconfig, other ftp servers are avaliable as packages, look in the forum for tutorials (maybe macsat did on).

If you have a compatible webcam that you know works and is no longer need, please sell it to me. I don't want to pay silly prices for the likes of a QuickCam Pro 4000.
