    Wi-tek WI-LTE117-O router port forward issue

    Thinking VPNs are better generically than other hosting methods is ludicrous. I think assuming they are secure by themselves is where people get into trouble. If any hosting server doesn't use public internet approved 3rd party certificates and use self signed certificates They automatically...

    Wi-tek WI-LTE117-O router port forward issue

    Complaints and negative comments w/o examples show how much this is a troll post. Attacking me on a personal level will not get you anywhere, so go have a smoke and reflect on that.

    Wi-tek WI-LTE117-O router port forward issue

    Its seems like you are trolling. The problem with the VPNs you guys suggest are not that secure because of self signed Certificates. Which DVR's problem is that besides people not changing them and someone getting a hold of the copy the DVR manufacturer has. Public CA certs applied remove all...

    Desperately need help. Switches lost or all cameras lost

    Problem is not caused by not grounding POE switches. The problem is lightning found a ground potential. Go get a small lab bench isolation transformer and use that at the shed. Even if its a two prong ac adapter, most bond the DC ground to neutral with a Y capacitor. Which is the path lightning...

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    Obviously you never had set up multiple IPs from the same ONT or cable modem. Leasing IP address is not a big deal. The only thing with ISPs is that they might upgrade the service to a business account for billing purposes. I should post how this system could be altered to have multiple IP...

    ICSee Dual Camera, but when accessed on computer using ip address with the app, only one shows up.

    you should run a mac address scanner like 'coalsoft mac scanner' from your computer to see if the second camera has a different ip address which I imagine that is the case.

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    example 2 router ip scheme IP address 10.11.13.1 Subnet mask 255.255.254.0 IP range 10.11.12.1-10.11.13.255 That's better. I don't have all of those subnet masks memorized to do all of them in my head.

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    yes that will work. Because your switch/node count is 3. The second one works just as well with a switch/node count of 2. The only thing I would have to work on is play with a network calculator because that router doesn't need to connect 2048 machines. I know it would work even though I did it...

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    Maybe I need to explain that APs can be used in reverse creating a wired network from a wifi connection. the ER605 looks like it should either live in the utility room or the house-office area before the 10 port switch. The application of this router would be called a bridging router instead of...

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    In those picture examples above I posted, the WIFI AP is just supplying your devices on the camera network. Why would you think any different? If you don't like it you can run a wire in its place from the same switch on the home internet network feeding the BI machine, no difference. I would...

    Wi-tek WI-LTE117-O router port forward issue

    if there is a setting in its firewall to "ignore ping from WAN" make sure its disabled. That is what I can see if you are having issues forwarding.

    Wi-tek WI-LTE117-O router port forward issue

    Its actually worse to VPN I imagine some DVRs are susceptible to this, but I doubt the BI server would have issues and none of the linux servers I ever port forwarded got hacked. I run a few hundred linux servers without a network firewall for decades. Btw, that was a paranoid article "weapons...

    Desperately need help. Switches lost or all cameras lost

    If they are chained together it could be just 1 out or a wire interconnecting them or both. Check the switches at the switch itself.

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    Here are two possible ways, the first one would use the AP directly with a switch, the other is with a router serving your current connections, that you could either put the access point on the WAN connection, or run a wire back to the computer network.

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    I think since you don't need the AP at the gate, set the AP as a bridge client and plug it into the network switch located at the house-office ( the camera network), then DHCP the MyQ so it will get an address of the home network. I never dealt with that particular brand of fiber media...

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    Ok, that was the house-office switch for the camera network. So how many internet devices will be on the camera network? so far I counted just 1 will there be others in the future?.

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    I think we are getting somewhere... Leave the unmanaged switch at the gate. Since you don't need the access point, its better to take it down and use it where you need to, The router should be installed in the same area as the blue iris or where you can physically connect these two networks. I...

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    Another way since the cameras are static addressed, take a wire from the home network switch and plug it into a camera network switch. Then put everything that needs internet on DHCP. The only downside to this is you have to rely on the AP security only and this wouldn't prevent rouge...

    2.16 A lot of that tp link equipment will die on you like that if it doesn't last years. I've had both their routers and switches these last few years go out or go offline and reboot them. Since it has cost me more money in warranty repairs, I have discontinued that brand entirely from my new...

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    In this diagram, this network doesn't have internet access: So the AP would only be used for adding wireless cameras. If you need it to have internet access, then on the static ip entry of the access point, you would put in a static IP address that would be in the IP pool of the computer...

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    Set up the AP at the gate as a wireless client connecting to your wireless network and connect that ethernet to the gate controller.

    how to run nvr to a dvr

    plug the WAN of the Szsinocam into one of the zosi 's camera port. Then add the cameras in the Zosi. I notice Szsinocam is running a http site. Which might be an indication they have their TLS certificates revoked. So I will recommend you regenerating the certificates in all of that equipment.

    Is ZoneMinder still being actively developed?

    Its still popular for writing certain types of programs. However just like other languages people used to write it, they don't have very good concurrency and parallelism so system loading and timing isn't efficient. At one point in time, I was thinking of writing a Erlang/Elixir/Pheonix CMS...

    Cable testing equipment.

    This one I used before and they provide the normal functions I look for in a network cable trouble shooter, and they are cheap too compared to a fully loaded network analyzer that rarely you use the other functions.

    Wi-tek WI-LTE117-O router port forward issue

    Usually there are videos for this for most routers, but it is router specific to where you do port forwarding and enabling responding to wan ping. But your router buries the destination and type in the advance tab where you would set unicast, and source (WAN port)

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    good to see you have it back online. Yes you can and there are a few ways of doing it. But the most secure way would be leasing a static IP (or two if they don't allow dhcp and static ip from the same cable modem) from the isp, then split the WAN to service the computer network and the camera...

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    Still never found a need for a managed switch on a cam network. For Troubleshooting, you use software. Either utilities by camera manufacturers or network utilities like coalsoft mac scanner.

    Setting up VPN/VLAN and Dual NIC

    it shouldn't exist on the camera network. Looking at the camera's datasheet, since their default address is 192.168.1.108 The camera network should be 192.168.1.xxx Static addressed. Managed switches is an unnecessary pain to set up just for cameras. Should be just a 10port unmanaged switch...
