Setting up a connected D-Link product is notoriously complicated (according to our experiences
At least) and the DCS-2630L is no exception. The camera is huge -- literally. It's way bigger than Nest Cam and other competitors
The camera is easy to set up, works great through cell phones, and the 180-degree view shows the entire room. For indoor surveillance, you can't get much better than the D-Link DCS-2630L at this price point.Pages12next ›last »Tags: D-LinkIP Surveillance C...

No sharing options, Not all web browsers fully supported, No cloud storage, Limited scheduling
The price of the D-Link DCS-2630L ($159) is in the medium range, but because it doesn't offer cloud storage, you don't have to pay anything extra per month. So if you don't care about saving your videos to the cloud, this might be a good option.The D-Link...

If you are specifically looking for a wide-angle DIY indoor camera with local storage, the D-Link DCS-2630L will work well. Just don't expect stellar design or a headache-free setup process...

The D-Link DCS-2630L retails for about $180 (Amazon) at the time of this review. For this price, it is so close to other cameras that it makes no sense if you're building a security solution to not include this camera. It excels in large rooms and will ca...

Expensive, Only local recording to the camera, Web interface is quirky
