Can't seem to delete the thread so I am editing to note these are sold. Thanks. I have two Hikvision cameras that I bought a few months ago (from B&H). I have decided to go with something a little different in these two spots. They were plugged into the network (POE) but soon afterwards...

That did it. Thanks so much.

We've had some instances of people rummaging through our stuff while camping and we are away from the site. I want to set something up to monitor the area and see who this might be next time. I guess the cam needs to be battery operated with on-board storage. No wifi network is going to...

I didn't know a 4MP existed. Got a link? IS it a mini dome?

That did it!! Thank you so much Dreamboat. And from looking at that config I better understand what we are trying to accomplish. It makes sense now. And BTW - I got that idea to forward one port to a different port from a friend who does home automation stuff. I'm gonna have to smack him...

B&H is the smarter choice. For me at least. For $35 extra dollars I got a true US region firmware in a regular US retail box with warranty. I purchased an Amazon Hik camera before and it came with US firmware but downgraded from the China region version, and in a brown box. I was told to not...

Having much trouble. When I set the devices and ports to the above suggestion, as well as port forwarding (as well as I know how to - which probably is incorrect), the second camera goes offline via the browser. I can only access it via the iVMS app and reset to default settings. And never...

Thanks @Dreamboat. So I need a separate HTTP & RTSP for each camera?

I previously had one camera and I had it working fine. Although configured wrong in my router I was ok with it because it worked and I could see it from the outside world. I somehow had it set up so that my external IP address went to that one camera. Today I added a second camera and I am...

Thanks @fenderman. I did set the video/audio to video&audio. But not after an hour of trying without that set properly. And after you mentioned it I fiddled some more and somehow it started working. And then it stopped. And then it started again. I think I have some config / router / port...

Just received today from B&H Photo. US version / firmware / box. Firmware version on the back of camera says V5.2.0. Also states the same firmware version in the configuration screen. The problem is I can't get audio to work. I've read here that 5.2 is likely the problem. Although most of...
