I set fan speed to high and temp dropped a bit. Let’s see how it goes. Maybe I can do without the daily reboot now.

Thanks. What’s your temp & cpu utilization at for reference?

Well, that’s disappointing. The self adaptive setting for the fan should raise its speed if the cpu is getting too hot. I’ll try changing the setting to constant instead of self adaptive and see what effect that has on temp. Not looking forward to the whine of 8600rpm. If it makes a difference...

That’s an idea. I’ll check the router logs first. If I disconnect the Poe switch from the router, I lose the WiFi mesh connection to two WiFi doorbells and one WiFi cam.

Non-POE. Logs are ordinary right up until the abnormal reboot. I think I can rule out heat…

If I did that, none of the cams would be connected to it. This model only has the one port.

P2P is disabled. I have DMSS configured to connect by IP (using dynamic dns and port forwarding). New NVR is configured with same static IP as the one it replaced. connecting by IP a no-go when it’s in this state. The only relevant log entry is the one that indicates “Abnormal Reboot”

By hangs, I mean I can’t connect to it remotely through the DMSS app, and attempting to search or access any feature through the console results in a reboot. When it comes back online, it’s apparent that it hasn’t been recording any channel for some length of time. (Hours or days depending on...

For years, I ran a hodgepodge of 14 mixed brand ONVIF cams on an Amcrest NV4116 with the only Dahua firmware version that preserved motion detection on all the cams. Several months ago, I swapped it out for an Amcrest NV5232 and updated that with again… the only Dahua firmware version that...

My NVR only has the one network port and I need to access it from the internet, so if you’re right, then this is unavoidable.

Agreed. I don’t think that’s it either. Considering how infrequently my router gets rebooted (firmware updates every few years), this isn’t an issue that warrants the effort it might take to solve it. It’s more of a puzzle, really.

Yes. As an added measure, I also have static assignment of those addresses to those MACs in the router, in case DHCP gets enabled on the devices. Internet access is blocked for the cams’ addresses as well, but that shouldn’t matter to the nvr or the pc, which added the cams by IP address.

This is what has me confused… it’s all intrasubnet traffic. The ip-cams, NVR and blur Iris pc are all on the same subnet. What’s more is that I can unplug the Ethernet cable from the router and everything keeps working. Likewise if I unplug the routers power cable. The interruption only occurs...

I think you might have hit the nail on the head. At least the part about the function that the router is performing. I’ll look into forcing a static route independent of that router. Thanks.

Tonight my usually bulletproof FiOS service was interrupted when a firmware update was pushed to my router. After twice restarting the router, I finally had to power cycle the ONT to restore internet access after the event. That aside, I noticed something I can't reconcile. Both times that...
