Do I need to connect this to the LAN or WAN outlet on my router?

You need to make an Ethernet coonection to marry the camera to the wifi system. After they connect, you can disconnect. Some of the newest cameras from this line can power from the Ethernet connection.

I believe it's the LAN the one that u would connect to your PC. If you heck the manual it should resolve your question.

Not sure I totally understand your question. If you plan on using the Y-Cam via WIFI, you do need to connect the camera to your router when performing the initial setup. When you connect the camera to the router it apparently searches out the homemonitor website when you power up the camera if everything is normal. When you are in the process of setting up your on-line account with your computer you will need the number on the rear side of the camera. This apparently links the camera to your account via the home monitor website. Once the camera is recognized, follow the remaining steps in the setup, unplug the camera and position it where you want it. In addition to needing to be connected to the router you will also need to power the camera during the set up process. After setting up your account for the first camera, you will need to also plug in each successive camera directly to the router, one at a time. In my case when I initially connected a camera to the router and plugged it in the camera would not connect to the homemonitor website. My problem ultimately turned out to be an old router. I simply upgraded to a new router....aside from getting my cameras working, my internet connection is noticeable faster. Another thing you need to do is ensure your router is WPA or WPA2 secure.....at least that is what I learned from Y-Cam customer support.

Obviously you have no network experience. The only thing that ever goes into the WAN port of your router is your modem. Every device that you want to connect to the Web go into 1 of the 2,4,6,8 Local ports on router to be routed to the Web.

You don't have to leave it plugged into a LAN. It operates wirelessly. Just one note. You will either need to place it close to your router, or buy a range extender to put close to it. Once you get more than 20 ft away from your router, the sound will begin to drop out. That's been my experience, and I have the most expensive, farthest-range router you can buy.

Yes. Connect the modem to the WAN port on the router, and connect the computer and roku to the LAN ports on the router.

You do not need to plug it into the router, however you do need a cable and a computer that you have administrative rights on. It will require you to go through some pretty simple setup before the extender becomes active. Once setup is complete, you can plug into any wall outlet that is within the range of your current WIFI. I haven't had many connectivity issues yet, if I do a simple unplug/replug does the trick. Hope that helps!

There are apps for both and even computers throug a website, you need a controller that interfaces the LAN with the outlets.

Either one. I have one connected to my home router (note: this unit requires power and I use a power over Ethernet adapter that simply plugs into the network cable). I also have one plugged into a PoE port of a Cisco switch. Very reliable in both places.

On Network tab, change from SoHo router to simple "bridge". Now WAN+LAN is a 5 port switch instead. On Wireless tab, set up Access Point, SSID & security as needed. Now it is an AP (connected by wire). Tick WDS and add compatible macs from your related Ubiquiti AirOS AP(s). Be sure to choose a fixed matching WiFi channel used on both devices. (AirOS matching M devices. matching versions of firmware helpful. ) Now it is a 5 port switch and wireless repeater with the other associated AirOS devices equally set up as WDS & this device mac on its wireless tab. Manufacturer site (UBNT.com) forum & WiKi very helpful.

Only if you Router supports POE. Your router will specifically have ports labeled POE. If your router doesn't support POE, you can use an injector or add a poe router to your network.

You will need to run a cable for the actual internet connection but not for the power. The switch has a separate power adapter just like your router does.

I believe it allows you to specific dhcp server and disable wan with the stock firmware. Personally I flashed ddwrt onto the router, let's you do all of that. Quality of the product is high I recommend it.

You need to plug it in and configure the unit to connect with your router (fairly simple) but my experience is that these units do not work that well. I returned mine. Good luck!

If You Are On The Internet You Have A Modem Connect The Modem To The Router

That depends on whether your modem has a router built into it. The way I always do it is to connect the router's WAN port to the modem, then connect the switch to the router's LAN port and the other devices.

I did. works fine. make sure your router is configured right. I had to plug it into a LAN port instead of the wan port

You have to use the smaller one to connect to your router and the second one you plug somewhere else and have a 4 port switch ready to use.

You do need to be connected to the internet, but I couldn't easily run an Ethernet wire, so I installed a Linksys PLWK400 network extender kit. The sending unit connects to your router and into an electrical wall socket; the receiver plugs into an electrical wall socket then run a wire from the receiver into the Denon. The internet data gets transmitted through your electrical system and the Denon thinks you are connected directly to your router. For under $100 this works great.

You should be able to plug it into any CAT5 plug. It shouldn't matter since it is on your LAN.
