    OMG, Xfinity Gateway WILL NOT open the port

    Thank you, that does make some sense. Althought the varied IP's are a little hard to grasp since I only get the one stated on the Open Port tool, is the service provider hiding another number behind that maybe? The router I have is a modem/router combo from Xfinity. I think we opted for the...

    OMG, Xfinity Gateway WILL NOT open the port

    So after 3 hours...yes, 3 hours and most of it on the phone, Xfinity Gateway cannot open the ports for me to access Blue Iris. Does anyone have a solution to a router that will not allow port forwarding. I can do this easily on other providers like Cox and Century Link but this system only uses...

    Cant change IP. What am I doing wrong? EmpireTech Security Camera Outdoor 4K Full-Color 2×4MP Dual-Lens 1/1.8"

    Thanks everyone. The quick solution was to set the camera to DHCP then reset it. Find it on the network and then change the IP. I still cant figure out why I had to do that step before changing it.

    Cant change IP. What am I doing wrong? EmpireTech Security Camera Outdoor 4K Full-Color 2×4MP Dual-Lens 1/1.8"

    I cannot change the camera IP address and have no idea why. At my other house the default IP address is 192.168.1.1. and I have changed the IP on a few new upgraded cameras I bought for there last month. At my place Im at now its 10.0.0.1 Xfinity is the internet provider. I can find the camera...

    Quick question about old DS-2CD2112F-1 cameras. Finding the IP

    I havent used these in years and Im hooking them up in another location different from where they were before. After plugging them in to the old TP-Link switch I cant find the IP address on my local network, it doesn't even show up. I can verify the cameras are powered on and I can see other...

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Has anyone tried to put an absorbant pad inside these to help the issue? Similar to those in boxes when products are shipped? EDIT: I just ordered some 2 gram silica gel packets. Ill see if I can get it in there and make it work.. if thats the problem

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Interesting. The first pic has that blur I see on the whole image with mine. Is there any fix or adjustment to it? I already tried the settings in the camera web interface and cant change it.

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    One more thing I just noticed that I've never seen as a big deal but now is a good time to ask. The time is off between the camera and BI. I check a box that syncs the time when Im in the web interface for the Dahua camera. It seems like a one time sync. Is there a selection that keeps the...

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Im thinking this might be the case. Did the dome look clean when it was really dirty? Mine looks clean

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Thanks for the replies. The camera is mounted outside on a wall bracket. When I wiped the dome the inside looked clean but I didnt take it apart and clean. Will do that next. I attached a day time photo. The camera is a Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Attached a pic. Not sure if this is called blurred or halo or ? Its a general fuzzy picture day and night. Great camera and only a few months old. I just put it at this location recently but the camera seems to be 'fuzzy' regardless of outdoor lighting. The dome is clean too.

    I give up. F--ng pissed. spent 5 plus hours on port forwarding

    AAAAARRRRRRRGHHHHH yeah, that was it. Since I dont do computers and have to crash course everytime I reset something, I assumed that you have to open door #1 (port) before you could get to door #2 (computer) What about Teamviewer? better, worse or the same?
