    Additional settings via web browser

    Hi I have a few dahua cameras connected to my dahua nvr. One of them is installed in a low light area the image is almost black in colour mode. Am I right that I can tweak the shutter speed settings? If so I understand it to be via a Web browser with the camera connected via a poe injector...

    Field of view /Lens choice

    The main goal was to view the garden with motion alerts. I will also have a full colour camera above each door for better id quality

    Field of view /Lens choice

    Hi I am hoping for some help. I am currently switching away from the ring doorbell and floodlight cam. I have successfully installed the reolink POE doorbell that I am very happy with. The flood light camera replacement on the other hand is disappointing. I have replaced it with a full colour...

    Reolink cameras are garbage and their reddit moderators are unprofessional trunk slammers

    Hi I can't comment on redit but I have the POE doorbell Cam as a move from Ring. The app on that has no adds at all. It's not all that I had hoped it would be but it's already had an update that fixed some of the issues and it's definitely an upgrade from Ring. It can be set not to go into...

    Safest way to view NVR away from home

    I'll have to do some reading about openvpn I just assumed it was similar to other paid vpns. As far as I was aware the commercial vpn is encrypting the traffic thus keeping bank details and alike safe. As well as allowing my to access video streaming.

    Safest way to view NVR away from home

    To be honest. Remote access to the NVR is not essential. Just the doorbell. As for VMS sorry for my ignorance. What is this? As for the openVPN. My knowledge is limited to the commercial ones. I have expressVPN. I was at one point looking to get a router with the vpn installed on it to encrypt...

    Safest way to view NVR away from home

    I think my thought was around setting it up without making my network vulnerable. I have heard of 2 NIC's that wont work for me as i dont have a computer/server in the mix. If i am honest if some twat wants to have a look at my cameras they can knock them selfs out. I just dont want to leave...

    Safest way to view NVR away from home

    Hi Yes that's correct. My mistake a ethernet router with vpn. Is that something that I could use? I don't want to have to put the VM hub into modem mode if I don't have to.

    Safest way to view NVR away from home

    Hi I have a Virgin SuperHub 3, Reolink POE Doorbell and NVR2108HS-8P-1. I have setup the doorbell to record to the NVR via onvif. I will be using the reolink app for the doorbell functionality and potentially the dahua app from LAN & WAN. So my question is the best/user friendly way to access...

    Dahua POA cctv cameras in Reolink POE nvr

    Ah ok. Just to reply to some of the questions thrown back. I didn't use the doorbell with the dahua nvr because as far as I was aware it will only function as a camera thus loosing the doorbell notifications. As for the dahua cctv cameras I have them recording 24/7 I got sick of looking for...
