It doesn't matter that all the documentation was written by someone who speaks English as a second language. I've gotten used to that and the fact that nobody reads anything anymore. The REAL problems are: 1) The quick setup guide is only useful if you're adding this camera to a bunch of others. 2) There is no link to a detailed manual specifically for this camera (G4) 3) There is no link on the website for the G4 camera, only FP19900P.4) The manual you can finally get does not distinguish…

This review was updated on April 22, 2021 - When I read that the new Foscam cameras support Alexa I've wanted this G2 model since my previous model , which I installed in May 2017, has proven to be very good.
