DCS 6620 focus problem

I have a d-link DCS 6620 PTZ IP camera in an enclosure outside. It has been working fine for the last 4 years. About 2 weeks ago the picture got blurry. I removed it from the enclosure and brought it inside for testing. I set up a test sheet of paper with text to view the video. I was able to determine that the video is only blurry in the center of the picture the outsides edges are in focus. Any ideas as to what the problem may be?

I am looking for someone to repair 4 DCS-6620 cameras. It isn't a sofware problem it is hardware that needs to be fixed. Example camera came off base.

Any luck?
I have 7 of these that need service for one reason or another. They began to fail shortly after the warranty ran out, and have recently begun to fail much more quickly.
Next time, before I buy 62 cameras, I'll make sure I'm dealing with a company who services their product...D-Link tells me they simply don't and that these are $900 DISPOSABLE units.
Please let me know, too, if you can fix these (various problems depending on camera include include motors not working, no image produced, etc)...I can send them wherever they need to go.

There are several possible answers, but you need to supply more information. You did not say how you get to the Internet, which company, cable, DSL, or satellite? Most satellite companies will not allow cameras to be seen outside the network.

How to set Static local IP Address for D-link DCS 5220 IP Camera? Am using Linksys WRTG54 Router, with SSID & WPA. I had set the D-Link DCS wireless to use the same SSID and WPA, but once I plug out...

To set a static IP on the camera, do the following:

1. Chose an IP address for the camera that is outside your normal DHCP range but within your network subnet.
For example, if your router uses DHCP and gives out addresses in the range of 192.168.1.1 up to 192.168.1.10, you should chose an IP address beyond that (e.g. 192.168.1.20).
2. Login to your camera's current IP address and go to Setup -> Network setup
3. Turn off DHCP and type in the IP address that you chose into the configuration.
4. Restart your camera.

The above should fix your Static IP address question.

With regards to your Wireless question, you should make sure of the following:
1. Your router is set to broadcast its SSID
2. Your router is setup to use WPA (not WPA2)
3. Your AES password in the camera config is the same as that as the routers

Hope this helps
