Does this product require connecting to "the cloud" to use? Purchased & returned one that would not even load without giving a credit card number.

No, no cloud or even wifi required. I have a SD card loaded in mine and I don't even have to offload the scans for a while. Big improvement over models that require being connected to the computer or cloud.

I haven't tried it yet. It only asks for a serial number when loading so I'm not sure why you couldn't. I will try it this weekend when I get home to find out.

Android App will be included in the CD disk which come with the device. As for the cloud service, it is not the required part of the system, the device could operate with or without the cloud service.

You need to have some kind of service for it to work. Or am I not understanding your question?

I'm afraid I bought this computer for my boyfriend who doesn't have a credit card. He uses it sparingly, so I'm afraid you'll need to get this information from someone else. Sorry.

Yes. On both. SIM works to store data off line as well as via cloud. Need card for non wifi connect - fast as the network is allowing 3G or 4G

I see what your saying. I checked it out and it was under home...vudy.you need to register first. It doesn't ask for any credit info.

I've not down loaded any apps. I mainly got it for Internet access while away from home. Sorry! Wish I could've been more helpful

Everything has to be downloaded onto it via iTunes. If you can download your Clous stuff into iTunes (and I don't know if you can since I don't have Cloud) then you would just download it from there.

I got this same message upon setup. Never got to download anything. Sent it back. If it had these issues right out of the box it was faulty and not worth my time. Sorry.

You might need a web connection to activate the software if you choose to do so over the Internet. If I recall correctly you can do this over the phone as well. Aside from having to do an online activation, this product is used offline. No web connection required

It appears that it is saved to the memory card, not the cloud. You do have the option to download videos to your phone from the cameras memory card. You would have to do it before the crook unplugs it though.

No. I am connected to my cable provider through a DOCSIS 3.0 modem. No cloud involved. Absolutely no connection or reliably issues.

Sorry, I am no help ... I have never tried to use the cloud backup. I reformatted the drives for OS X and use one as a Time Machine backup and the other as just a media storage device.

You do not need cloud service. This is a wireless device that connects to a hub device which uses a proprietary protocol for communications, no IP Address. The hub connects to your private network via Ethernet cable. You can control it via a webpage from the hub or an app for your phone. Not to impress with the web interface and how one sets up devices, does not seem very well thought out, my opinion though.

U guess u can. I used 1 as access point and it worked. I believe cloud feature doesn't work if u use it as access

I don't know. I had to get all my information on this product by looking up the Cloud 9 company on google and thencontacting them through their website. But the customer service is very helpful
