I’m new to this game, but I am kinda leaning this way. I do live on a larger lot more set back from the road, so I don’t have to worry as much about my neighbors feeling like my cameras are spying on them, but I do understand why some people disguise, for me I want people to see them. However...

I am new to this myself, but I have the internet disabled on all the cameras, they are only available on the LAN, and if you had a similar setup, it should not interfere with your wife’s internet speeds. Side note, have you investigated starlink? My parents have never had the ability to have...

Thank you. I’m leaning towards the Z12E in most spots. I am about 170ft back from the cul de sac in front of my house and 125-150ft to the road behind my house. I know I am not going to get and ID or recognize at that distance but I’m hopeful with the Z12E I can get observation, and eventually...

Yes PTZ is something I would love to have. Do to the shape and non-square box style to my home, a few PTZ cams will really bring home the IDENTIFY portion of my plan. It’s hard when I am covering so much property. Of course the perfectionist in me says I need to be able to identify every single...

Thank you. My first phase is just getting some cameras up in key spots (around 6 to start…budget), but I’ve made up lots of maps of my property, and it appears like I will probably end up in 14-16 range, which I know is likely overkill, but that’s kinda how I roll. Sent from my iPhone using...

thank you. Which is better in low light situations? I live in a neighborhood that does not have street lighting at all. I have some neighbors that leave some exterior lights on, and I have landscape lighting (low voltage, so it’s fairly dim), however my lighting conditions are very low, and...

Hi, I have began planning my system, and I will admit to being an “overthinker” and a spreadsheet-type person. I am coming from an Arlo system that was basically dead half time because batteries need to be charged and that we ended up turning alerts off on because the notifications were...

d1 was working great for AI, I was not having issues getting the triggers I wanted with D1, it was merely just I didn't like sitting down and it looking bad...which I know...we aren't making movies. When i would click into alerts and it would switch over to the alert with the high res stream (it...

Ok, thank you. When I set up the sub to record, most instructions I had seen said to set it to the D1, but that does make sense that it would be so much lower quality that it wouldn't look good period. Right now continuous recording space is not a problem, as I just have one camera as I am...

Hi, I've searched a ton over the last couple weeks, and played with so many settings trying to troubleshoot things one my own, however, I just can't seem to get things tuned the right way. I'm at the point that my mainstream is looking good, especially during the day right now (i'm trying to...

Just following up again on this topic for reference in the future. I received a replacement cam yesterday, same cam, just a Turret style this time, and I can say that there was definately issues with the first camera, despite being the same camera, just different format (Turret vs Bullet), the...

thanks! This is helpful information (just for future purposes), I was leaning towards it being the sensor, but it’s good to know that is probably correct.

Just updating for anyone who comes across this later, it was in fact a bad camera. I tried different network cables and connected directly to my computer with several and it was still there. It’s either a bad image sensor, or a bad pigtail for the network cable on the camera itself (I think...
