There is some type of error on quicktime that needs a change to the configuration because the camera needs an HTTP format, but the current version of quicktime does not seem to allow an easy re-set. It also has problems hitting the wifi router since the software that comes with the camera does not work with apple equipment (apple router). We may have found a solution on line, but wondered if anyone else experienced the same challenges and had other solutions.

Any advice/direction would be appreciated.
Wifi is wifi. It'll work with an Airport/Airport Extreme, provided the other settings are correct.

Not sure about controlling it via quicktime though. I was able to see BIS's Foscam and configure it on my Apple MacBook Air (didn't try any of the PTZ controls though).
