Self-Hosted Mode

Thingino supports a "self-hosted" mode, allowing the camera to function without an internet connection. In this mode, the camera creates its own wireless access point, enabling direct connection from a mobile device or computer. Once connected, users can open a web browser and go to http://thingino.local to access camera settings and features.

How to Enable Self-Hosted Mode

1. Using the WebUI on an Existing Setup
If the device is already configured, you can enable self-hosted mode via the WebUI under Wireless Networking. wlanap-webui

2. From the Setup Portal on a New Installation
For a fresh installation, you can configure and enable AP mode directly from the setup portal.
wlanap-portal

3. Manually Enabling via Console
To enable self-hosted mode manually, first connect the device to your wireless network as usual. Then, run the following command in the console:

fw_setenv wlanap_enabled true

Reboot the device, and it will start broadcasting an access point. The default password for the access point is thingino.

Accessing Thingino Services

You can use the thingino.local domain to access RTSP and other services, such as:

rtsp://thingino.local

Alternatively, you can connect using the device’s IP address. For example:

  • Web access: http://100.64.1.1
  • RTSP streaming: rtsp://100.64.1.1/ch0
