 Hey guys, welcome back to my YouTube channel Daniel Rosal here for a high two video today about getting the tapo c2 1 0 IP cam working with your surveillance station on a Synology and yes, I have the Synology DS920 plus NAS, so that's what we're going to be integrating with today So the prerequisites to get to this point in time. I'm just gonna play around with my webcam a little bit You can see it moving here in my familiar home office First the prerequisites are that you get your webcam to this point. So what I'm doing here. I'm emulating my Synology NAS on my sorry I'm emulating my Android device on my computer. So you're looking literally at my phone here I have the tapo app open and that is the back of my chair that's in frame in fact So I'm going to move the camera back this way of it All right, so that's step one. So get it working. Do WPS get the IP cam authenticated with your router Then you want to go into settings and you're gonna see this is again the tapo app for Android And if you scroll down a little bit on the settings page, you're gonna have a advanced settings option And then you want to click into camera account Now what you're doing here is you need to create a username and password And this is going to allow the tapo link my P camera to authenticate with third-party devices or Applications such as whatever surveillance software you're using I'm going to be integrating it with surveillance station on the Synology NAS so I'm going to go ahead now and create a username and password and Note those down somewhere safe like a password manager on your computer And then let's go into the actual Synology and take it from there I want to just emphasize how important it is to do that step because the Kind of supplementary account that we just created we created a username and password so a pair of credentials That's not the same thing as the TP link account. You set up when you were getting this webcam to work with tapo It's a separate thing. It's buried under advanced settings. And if you don't do this, it's not gonna work So now I'm in my DSM I'm in surveillance station here and I'm in the IP camera area and from this point from this point on it's really simple So it's going to search surveillance stations going to search through my local network for any IP cameras that can find and There you go. It's going to automatically pick up the tapo C 210 Now the difference between this and the previous step is that We're going to be able to authenticate now. So you're looking for the right camera address and the right Mac address Now you're going to get an authenticate button under status and this is where we're going to supply the credentials that we just created So you're gonna plug in here the username and password that you just created in the tapo app Make sure the port is set to 2020. That's the correct port and that you don't need to enable RTSP streaming or anything that in the app. It's automatically set up So just plug in your username and password and then you can authenticate with the IP camera so after clicking on authentication if it works, you're going to get this hopeful looking green tick sign and I was super super excited when it came on because it took me a while searching through the TP-Link forums and Synology forums to actually figure out that all you needed to do is create that extra credential Then you can click on I'm just going to go through quick setup options here. I'm going to click on done It's going to activate it's going to authenticate and Then the camera is going to come live and now if I click into my camera I'm getting audio pickup. We're just going to hit the reverb and you're getting the camera on your surveillance station. I Now have my TP-Link camera active in surveillance station. It's live I can I can also have a timeline because I've set up Internal memory and it's recording on to the NAS. I can take snapshots and I can even undock the PTZ panel here and make movements on my NAS. I hope that video is useful if you've been struggling to get your TAPO by TP-Link webcam connected with your surveillance station This is my surveillance station and Synology the Synology DS920 plus and that's it. Thank you guys for watching more videos from me coming soon
