Camping with Dogs at FW - RV Cameras

[JConklin]

This November we are staying at Fort Wilderness in an RV with our 2 dogs. We had originally planned to bring our blink cameras to hook up and keep an eye on them while in the parks or out for a little, but I recently read that Disney's wifi is a captive portal and so the blink cameras can't connect.


Has anyone found a way to successfully connect any kind of cameras at FW? Whether through wifi or mobile Hotspot or cellular? Just looking for an easy way to keep an eye on the fur babies.

Our Ring cameras work fine for keeping an eye on our dogs, connected to Disney wifi

I do not use disney WIFI for it, though I do use a ring camera in our RV connected to tmobile internet I have setup just for the RV. I think any of them will work if you through them through a client repeater. Somthing like the gl-inet beryl AX can give you a local common wifi name to connect to, and then you connect that to the disney wifi which allows you to get to the captive portal and allow all the devices through.

I recently used a mini router to do this. The mini router connected to the Disney wifi, I then created our own little secure network and connected the camera.

This is what I used:

We use blink cameras for our dogs too and it was a perfect until Disney WiFi used a captive portal. Now we use a travel router and it works fine. I practiced using it at home first haha.

I need some tech support. So I just bought this. Works great at home. But I am at a campground with wifi but no password required but once you connect you have to agree to terms and conditions. How do I do that with this router.

I had to do that at the Fort too.

I used the manual that came with the router and followed the instructions, there was a good bit of trial and error before I got it working. I probably googled how to do it too.

I’m sorry I don’t remember the exact steps. The router is in the camper , which is in storage. but I believe we used it as a wisp?
