      Answer This Question

      A:  Yes, this product can be viewed form a Linux computer from a browser.

      by|May 3, 2023

        A:  Hi there Dave, Unfortunately, Linux will not work with our systems due to the plugins. It would have to be either a Windows or Mac Operating System. If you are able to acquire on of those operating systems, we would be able to configure the camera and set it up on our smart phone or tablet. For any other questions or issues, please feel free to reach out at support@foscam.us & never hesitate to ask anything! We look forward in speaking with you & helping you out.
