Looked like the dogs scared it away.

Sounds like you did a factory default if the IP changed. You need the config tool to change the IP. Config Tool or plug in the camera directly to a laptop, change your laptop's adapter settings so it matches the new IP of the camera . Then log into the camera and change the IP from the gui.

@bigredfish You and @tibimakai have similar settings so I'll start with what you have and turn on HLC at 50, and see what happens. Or should I go higher? Will report back when I get some examples. Not a lot of traffic on my street which is good. Oh yeah, gotta have all the angle covered and...

I have updated three of my cameras and so far they're good. I reset all to default/reboot/upgrade and set my settings again. 2- HDW5231R-ZE 1- HDW4231EM-AS Will wait and monitor these before doing the rest.

Thanks, I'll try those settings and see how the image looks. Not sure if I need an additional illuminator, at least I would like to avoid adding one. The front of my house already looks crazy as is at night with the IR lights, lol. I also have turrets at the corners next the the LPR cams. Then...

I like the look of these better than the hdw5231r-z. Glad I held off buying more of those. I just ordered a few of these even though I won't be needing extended distance it can handle. Curious to see how it compares to the other in my application. Thanks for doing the review!

40% seems kinda high for 4 cameras not recording Are you using the trial or licensed Blue Iris? What frame rates do you have set on the cameras and are you using direct to disc recording? Follow those tips in the link posted.

My old neighborhood.. Don't remember hearing about kids hacking up people for as long as I lived there. Gotta be more cautious nowadays some of these kids are looney tunes. ( No offense to @looney2ns )

Is this with the 3.6 lens?

Your Discovery/ONVIF listening port is still 8999 in BI. Change that to 80. Then click find/inspect.
