    Watch from anywhere

    Once the device is set up, video already works on your own network. Two routes take it outside, and the quicker one needs nothing installed on the device you watch from.

    One click publishes the camera. Once it reads connected, a Watch from anywhere link appears.

    Publish to the Aircast cloud

    On Streaming, expand Manage next to the camera and find Aircast cloud. If the device is signed in to your Aircast account it reads off with a Connect to cloud button, and one click publishes the camera.

    Once it says connected, a Watch from anywhere link appears: a browser watch page that streams over WebRTC, with no Tailscale involved. Share it by minting revocable watch links from your cloud dashboard rather than handing out the raw stream URL.

    Or keep it on your tailnet

    Use this when you want the dashboard, telemetry and video on a private network you control, with no traffic through the Aircast cloud. The device joined your tailnet during setup, and Get Started covers getting your laptop or phone onto it. Install Tailscale has the per-platform detail.

    The Aircast Flasher downloads the image, sets Wi-Fi and hostname, and verifies the card — no terminal.
