Two Harbors Cams

-----------------------------
FYI,

The Two Harbors cams are back up for now.  There are still some network issues preventing the cameras from connecting to Youtube and preventing me from being able to connect to the cameras to make any adjustments or control.

I don't think I will fiddle around with things until after the shipping season is done for the year on January 15th.

Thanks for your extreme patience while a whole lot of people tried to fix things.

Two Harbors Cams Update!

Yesterday I talked with one of the ISP techs who was working on the internet service in Two Harbors.
The company was bought out last summer and is now headquartered in Pennsylvania.  There is some kind of comparability problem between to two operations that is preventing the cameras from transmitting online.

While it it good to know that the issue is being worked on, I do not know when it will be resolved.

There is not much we can do but wait and let them work through their problems.

Sorry for the hold up, I miss the cameras as much as you do and will keep checking with them once a week and keep you posted.
