So I've finally gotten around to upload one of my hobby projects to Github. It's an Android baby monitor app, which will connect to any Foscam FI8918W.

I am planning to upgrade it to connect to a different camera - as I pretty much stopped improving on the app after my partner managed to drop the one camera I had to develop with.

Now I've gotten a new camera, but sadly although it looks almost the same, it isn't compatible...

Code is here: https://github.com/phoenix-nz/IPCamBabyMonitor - You should be able to download it and compile it using the new Android Studio.

If you happen to use OpenWRT on your router and also use a dynamic DNS provider to connect to your network from outside, just a quick heads-up.

OpenWRT does NOT use a secure connection to update your IP by default. I happened to stumble on this, as DDNS was disabled after an upgrade, and I ended up using the command line to reconfigure it instead of luci - as I usually would.

For some reason Luci does not even provide the option to secure the connection between your router and your DDNS provider - which is why I never noticed.

The instructions are here: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/ddns.client 

Note: You will almost certainly have to enable SSL3 - or you should change your DDNS-Provider.
