Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy to setup. The App is user friendly and full of features, allowing two-way voice communication and the images are high definition. I have bought 3 and wil buy more. Highly recommend!

Easy set up and able to connect to another video camera. Higher quality night vision and day vision. Pan and tilt wonderful features and easy to use. Product serves my purpose well and glad to have it for added protection and use. Notifications from sound or movement inside when set.

I bought this camera to monitor the inside of my house. I am able to move the camera around and look around the room with my iPhone. I use the ethernet connection which is more reliable than wifi. I had problems with just recording video only, I had to set the camera up to record both video and still pictures. Looks like there is a glitch in the firmware.

The Dlink DCS522L is a great security camera. I purchased this device on 5/27/16 and had some issues installing it. It is not user friendly with windows 10 , and internet explorer. I talked to tech support twice once to get it started, and once to get the firmware up date. I have to say after that this camera is great. It has a a pan option ,or you use the arrow to move the camera left to right up or down, it has the wireless feature and you can use an Ipad, or you cell phone to log into the camera, and use the remote controls. You can put an SD mini card right into the camera and record, and play back. it records on motion, or by the hour. It has an audio feature to , still working on that... I highly recommend this camera if your looking into Security..

The D-Link camera was hard to setup Took about 25 minutes for the camera to connect to the router The software from website has a video problem not display in Windows 10. Shop around for a better camera

I recently purchased two of these cameras for my home. I am able to watch them from my smartphone, and laptop. If I choose, I am notified when motion is detected and I can capture images as well. My wife and I can both use them easily. highly recommended

The box says its easy to setup and use and makes it look pretty slick. I have to say its not that easy. Definately a moderate learning curve......you will not likely just plug it in and start using it. I couldn't. WARNING -- DO NOT try to update the firmware via wireless (the unit brand new powered up and prompted me to update when it was connected to wireless...). The first unit bricked itself. And it CANNOT be unbricked by the user. Returned for a second one and this time I canceled the update and installed as is. Now the unit wants me to update it every time I look at it in the app--- irritating. I had to order a second power supply (the first one is installed permanently in the house now) so I can connect the camera directly to the router and try the firmware update again. Had to order that through Dlink directly for $10....cheap but getting to that point was a nightmare. Outsourced call center....that's all I am saying. So I have been running it for a month or so and it is sort of neat. I can spy into my living room and hear what is going on.....with patience pan around the room and such. Lots of neat features but they are cumbersome to get at and some, like the 2 way audio, are not working well at all. DLink tells me the firmware update has to be done before they can address any issues with me. So I am waiting for the power supply to do the firmware update to o see if things improve. The camera response via wireless is slow/delayed. hi rez video bogs things down a bunch so I run it in low rez most of the time. The camera does record video clips to an SD card you provide but accessing it via the camera to view clips is SLOOOOOW. And the website you can use to access the camera if not using the mobile app is very clunky and requires all sorts of hoops to be jumped through. And again, everything runs SLOW. Some users have told me this is "expected" via wireless. I cant get an ethernet cable to the camera to see if that helps....but why should I have to...I bought a WIRELESS camera. I will say that night vision is spectacualr in the house. SO the jury is still out. But this survey popped up now. I will try and update once the power supply/firmware issue is solved. I guess I am pretty much stick with the camera at this point so I will ride it out and see what happens.

Picture quality is crisp and clear. Network setup was easy, and connected right away. Pan and tilt options are great for looking around the area. Will be buying more for other areas.

Sound is low only works when you are in range does not work when you are anywhere else but does have a great picture izooms in with an iPhone sound Works when listening not when talking I want to make that clear

Easy to setup, I have three of these cameras and one outdoor Dlink DCS-7010Land all have worked flawlessly. I have a DLink DIR-880L router and use a DLink DNR-326 NVR for recording. All works seamlessly. Highly recommend.

Great camera, clear, easy setup. Only thing when setting up was that I wasn't aware there was a model a and model b so I couldn't connect to the app right away. Once I figured that out setup took 5 mins.

Was a little difficult to set up, even with the help of the tech support. Were issues with the model number not matching the software that came with. Now working out the issues with the sound. Picture is clear and the pan/tilt makes it easy to see all ares.

Fairly easy to set up. Be careful when upgrading the firmware, especially on a wireless connection. Camera has the option to save to SD chip or email motion video. Nice feature. The ability to control the direction and hear sound is great to have

Works well on iPad but was very hard to get set up on wifi. The video quality was good and the panning feature was also nice to have.

Very easy to setup and use. Product includes both website and mobile app access. It has great HD image when viewing. Unit has remote ability to move camera angles to see all around a room.

Good camera, good quality images. Have it networked- WiFi is nice, but lots of delay and interference. Some issues w/ connectivity as well. Needs a bit of TLC from the router.

worked great while on vacation however the motion activated recording never worked. The IR at night is great and the video quality is good! very nice to control and see over internet.

I have one of these cameras setup in a remote location where the WiFi is spotty at best. I'm pleased to say that where a FOSCAM camera failed, this camera has been working perfectly. If WiFi goes down the camera faithfully reconnects when it is once again available. The "MyDlink" service works well. As an added bonus D-Link simply layered the super easy menus on top of the older (but much more advanced) setup menus, so you have the best of both worlds. Picture quality is really good for a lower cost camera.

Really like the video image. Colors are sharp and the variable resolution setting is a nice feature. Logging on through the D-Link site is a little slow though.

we had purchased a different camera not realizing it was indoor only. We returned it for this one which seemed to be the only outdoor camera the store had. It does alert us when someone comes to the door but the range isn't as vast as we thought it would be. We will have to purchase a second camera. Also though we can tell who's who out of our regular visitors, we wouldn't be able to see enough detail if a stranger came to the door. It's better than not having one.
