    Hikvision no longer selling to the end user

    How would they police this though? Seems unworkable to me. Would you have to register with them as an installer? If so, would there be a fee? What about the resellers en EBay etc? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Typical stable WiFi signal strength

    To be blunt, streaming video over wifi is never going to be as reliable as using a cable. I would install something like inssider on a laptop, stand where the camera is and look at the RSSI, the signal to noise ratio and and interference from neighbouring APs. Wifi signal strength is just part...

    Dome Hikvision Picture looks odd?

    I appreciate your help but you need to work on your tone. Perhaps not everybody is a CCTV genius like you. Luckily I have a cavalier attitude towards most egos but I find that those who get angry sitting behind a keyboard, rarely would in the real world. Like I said, appreciate the help but...

    Dome Hikvision Picture looks odd?

    The reason for the wider lens is I wanted to try and see the car outside the house and also double as a door cam for seeing the front door, I suppose in hindsight I should have tried two Cameras, one for the car and one for the door. Thanks for your help Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Dome Hikvision Picture looks odd?

    I will have to move the dome then as the white thing is a beam holding the awning up above the door. The problem with the bullet is the 4mm lens and I wanted 2.8mm. I wasn't aware of the turrets at the time when I bought it, in hindsight I would have got the turret. I may just move the dome...

    Dome Hikvision Picture looks odd?

    Thanks, you mean adjust the FOV so the white beam is not in view or the wall on the left of the image below the window? The dome above the garage is outside and it works great, it's the same camera so must be something in the image itself. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    This may have been asked already, I did try a search and scanned what I could but there is a lot of pages on this thread. Does the weather info work in the UK? Thanks

    BI and needing to setup VPN

    Which connection are you moving from the routers port to the internet port? Do you run a VPN on the Cisco router or is it simply acting as a router?

    FTP Latency Issues - Constant FTP Connection?

    So its a BI feature to keep the connection open? To be honest, I have given up on the FTP thing as it causes issues. I wanted offsite storage so figured FTP was the best option, I didn't realise BI would keep the connection open. I am now using Google Drive to save files so they are uploaded...

    FTP Latency Issues - Constant FTP Connection?

    Hey So I only have a 1Mb upload but am only using BI with motion dection, to give you an example, I had 20 alerts upload yesterday to the FTP server on the internet. The problem is that even when not uploading, it seems to cause the latency on the internet connection to shoot up from 30ms...

    FTP and Email Doesn't work when using VPN?

    Hi I have a site to site VPN from my router to a private VPN provider. With the VPN enabled, the FTP and Email alerts for Motion Detection fail to send. If I disable the VPN, it suddenly sends all the ones waiting which it must have 'queued'. Is there a setting which I need to adjust? I...

    Recording Ending Early?

    Thanks I will give the cloned camera a go because at night I get an alert every time a car goes past. I know storage is cheap but 30 alerts a night is annoying.

    Recording Ending Early?

    So I should bring the sliders more left? I did that before and it caused cars going past at night to trigger it. Our road is narrow and we live opposite a junction so cars at night light up the driveway which keps triggering it. I guess I could try and create a seperate profile for night.
