There were some minor setup issues, but .

There were a few setup issues but the support from the AngelCam guys is great! They took time out of schedule to speak to me by phone and email. We look forward to upcoming new features! The only complaint at the moment is about the app. Sometimes the preview doesn't load (shows the camera offline), sometimes the preview loads but not in full screen. Hope it works.

Pros
  • Shipping was very fast
Cons
  • Weight

The year and a half fight is over!

16 months ago we bought and installed home made security cameras and DVR. I have not been able to connect this DVR to the Internet for 16 months. Over the course of 16 months I spent several days on DNS services and port forwarding missions and failed every time. To be honest I think it's a problem with Comcast's internet. At this point I've learned too much about my router! With Angelbox I was up and running in minutes! That quickly costs twice as much! Amazing customer service if you have a…

I couldn't get it to work with my cameras

I've tried connecting the device to my network using an ethernet cable but it seems to be slowing down my network connection. I noticed a drop from 800Mbps at my ISP to around 12Mbps. I still don't know why, but as soon as I removed the device my speed picked up again. Looks like the corner box was trying to act as a DHCP server. I could see the Engelsbox with the app, but the Winkelbox could not find my Lorex, Dahua and Flir cameras or NVRs on the network. So it's coming back. I really want…

Not a flawless setup.

Easy to set up, the Angel Box is just a regular Raspberry computer that they programmed with their software. Your website and apps are somewhat buggy. Couldn't configure and add more than one camera at a time, otherwise it says the camera is incompatible, which was wrong. I was able to add all six of my cameras to my account by setting them up individually. The installation is not entirely error-free, but relatively easy. Also, too many cameras will overload your internet connection and make it

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only

Good product, does what it promises.

It was as easy as they make it look. I have an existing camera (Dahua IPC-HFW4300S 3MP), I connected the box, clicked on the web link and it already found my camera, I entered the password for the camera and you're done. Please note: This is a Raspberry Pi that comes full OS and you could do it yourself for a few bucks less, but for your time and potential headache I should have bought this. The bottom of the page is fine. You add "apps" to your camera. Recording your camera is free for 3 days,

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • The packaging is ugly
