    Will this network setup work with EmpireTech NVR 8CH-AI and my 2 existing PoE switches

    Just checked the specs for the NVR on Andy’s site, it only has 1 NIC. You’d have to install per your diagram and run cameras in your network along with the NVR. You can’t physically separate on a 2nd camera network. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hi there. What you have posted would work but your cameras will be on your network. You’d want to put the appropriate security measures in place on your ASUS gear. Can you get runs back from the POE switches to another switch and into NVR? That way you can physically separate the cameras on to...

    Dahua NVR and DMSS help needed

    Have you tried to setup a new config file on OpenVPN? Export it from your router and send to email. Open email on device and pull into the app. Helpful link if you don’t remember this from your initial setup. https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1004471/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Home security system (ring vs vista 20p wireless)

    I’ve installed 100’s of Vista systems, 15 all the way to 250 over the past 20 years. Much different than a Ring system. For the more complete system, you’ll want the Vista. The 20p is a great one for residential. Wired is great but not always an option. Honestly, wireless with their 5881 and...

    What do most of you do for runs over 350 feet?

    Add a switch in between is the easiest way to approach. Veracity and Vigitron make some devices too for long cable run applications. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Simple solution for college apt parking lot

    Ring has an in car cam that could be an option. https://ring.com/products/car-cam There are a number of LTE battery cams out there too, for an interior setup. Or go with a trail cam and SIM card. Would recommend a decent car alarm as your first layer of protection though if not already on...
