I've been trying for days to figure this out, but not being a 'computer person' has frustrated me...

I got a wireless camera recently and have been trying to use it. Unfortunately, Tenvis requires the VLC plugin in to be able to play on Firefox. The only other browser option they suggested was using Internet Explorer, but I can't seem to find a copy (doesn't work with Edge). For some reason, my Chrome isn't able to connect to the internet despite me posting this. Tenvis forums also mentioned also trying going through the VLC program, which has so far been unsuccessful (contacted Tenvis about that).

If you still want to downgrade, look under; I still want to downgrade. Click the Directory of other versions and languages link. Look for the directory of the version that you want. But, remember that old versions may have security issues.

Did you try to access the camera directory from within VLC?
