    I have confused myself, and I would like to buy some cameras

    Indeed, I agree with ^^ the more the merrier. With the airplanes, you could hope that you'd hit an airplane on final approach when doing a programmed tour, however, I would suggest you (at least) try to have a camera with an programmable interface (or even better: alarm IO's) so that (for...

    Bulk discount From EmpireTech-Andy on Amazon shop

    I don't want to hijack this thread, but this video is very optimised for that situation. But as that car is crisp and clear, thieves and smuggs will never look like that face-forward into your camera, you'll never get such crisp & clear facial shots anyway. Unless you use 300 floodlights and...

    Dahua XVR Onvif events

    Hi @Il_Pres: off course Mercedes Benz is never going to claim to use motor oil from BMW (or inverse) :D Have a look at this screenshot: Under manufacturer, here is noted "Private" (which means private protocol hence Dahua-internal). I suspect you have selected ONVIF there. Have a look in that...

    VTO2000A new V4 firmware

    I think I'm even on an older version than yours: STAP 2 - General_VTOXXX-data_Eng_P_16M_PART_V3.120.0000000.1.T.20180309, only my VTH is upgraded to a version 4 (to have nicer screen layouts).

    Dahua XVR Onvif events

    Hi @Il_Pres, nothing new on Dahua support: that's their company's policy, and everybody knows that beforehand. Nothing to do about that. Secondly, it is also a known issue (with all vendors btw!) that you better stick to one brand. Dahua is best placed to handle Dahua cams. Hikvision NVR with...

    VTO2000A new V4 firmware

    Hi @Erik2b1: ok, good to see that push notifications work with your NVR. You said you did factory resets, did you do the reset like I described with the burglar alarm? It requires some physical activity: take the VTO from your wall, and let the alarm buzz/chirp. Do NOT unplug the ethernet cord...

    VTO2000A new V4 firmware

    Hi Erik, Which NVR do you have? One with IVS for example? If so, the easiest way is to add an IVS rule, and link that IVS rule to your DMSS app. If you see those events coming through, then you (at least) know there is nothing wrong with your network. If these NVR push notifications are not...

    VTO2000A new V4 firmware

    Hello Holland :) "It is not working" does not describe what you are trying to do. Did it work before your firmware upgrade? Can you try the "old" iDMSS/gDMSS app? If you subscribe to the doorbells alarm system, does that "stick" or automatically jumps to disabled state? Are your push...

    Virus scan alerts & intrusion attempts - Real?

    Indeed Shield'sup is the test. Always make sure your linksys is running on the latest & greatest security fixes. If you doubt your pc endpoint is infected/compromised, please re-install windows and redeploy your apps on it. Good luck! CC

    Virus scan alerts & intrusion attempts - Real?

    okay, good, now go to GRC.com and do a full port scan on your WAN IP. If your PC's firewall/antivirus is complaining about incoming packets, your pc is still vulnerable. Good luck! CC

    Password removers

    Let's face it the other way round: if I'm a wardriver, blackhat hacker, and with my wifi-sniffing mac spoofing clever device, I hook up into residential wifi's. If I'd boot up this magical linux ISO which scans for NVR/IPC devices and hopla, disconnect all these camera's from the network and do...

    Password removers

    What could change your way of working is leaving each of your customers with a Password Vault (Keepass and others), and force your customers to put their passwords in there. If they call you next time, point to that vault. No vault, no help. Simple? ;-)

    New iPhone connects only on WiFi (LAN) not WAN

    OK: do you have a raspberry pi lying around? What kind of router do you have (asus/netgear/.. )? Sometimes people do crazy discoveries and can run an OpenVPN server on their home routers!

    New iPhone connects only on WiFi (LAN) not WAN

    It's not that your port forwarding is working for years, that it is considered as "best practice". We are in 2020 (almost 2021), and on my honey pots I get hammered by thousands of crazy eastern europeans and asian perks. So follow the advice of @SouthernYankee, deploy a VPN server (even on a...

    Change camera password.

    No you are absolutely right, you need to get into your camera to change the camera over there and THEN change the "connection" password of that camera in the NVR. The password you enter for the camera is ONLY to connect to it, not to change it. Hence my suggestion above: if you want to have a...

    Change camera password.

    Hi @dahuauser , okay this is helping! Photo1, 3 and 5 indicate that your camera is fully configured by the NVR. Photo 3 even more indicates your NVR is fully operational and SmartPSS can access these cams. So what worries me the most is your Photo 4: which browser are you using? This looks like...

    @parsec : have a look at this principe diagram: DahuaWiki If this is chinese to you, you better call a certified electrician, (s)he can help you out best before you blow up your house :p Happy Camming! CC PS. this does require an NVR/IPC with Alarm OUTPUTs

    Change camera password.

    As you insist on not giving us all the required information we need: draw the NVR-IPC network diagram: is this IPC connected to the POE ports or not? how do you connect to your NVR? Show screenshot of your browser WITH the ip address of the NVR how do you connect to your IPV? Show screenshot of...

    Change camera password.

    Hi Belgium! If your camera's are on the POE ports of the camera, then you NEED to use the local port forwarding on the NVR (Internet Exploder icon under camera registration). And you will be prompted again for the password anyway. If you want to be ultimately safe, you set one password in NVR...

    Change camera password.

    Hi @dahuauser, if you let the NVR auto-configure an uninitialised camera, it will push automatically the NVR password to that camera. If you picked a high standard security password for the admin user, I am wondering why you would put another password within the camera itself? So I think you...

    ***PSA for those with a New DAHUA NVR with Built-in PoE switch

    Hi @Jinajon, I didn't read all your posts above, it "looks" like you are doing a "default" through the browser, yes? Don't do that (it is not a full 100% factory reset, as it does not put the camera in "initialising" state). You need that initialising state. How to do this? Open the back of the...

    Ideas for coverage? See Pictures

    If you would funnel your visitors into an entrance and exit gate, you would only have to cover those two choke points. However, that requires fencing all alongst your borders, plus gates (& entrance systems), plus perks can still climb over however with physical trip wires & PIRs it might be...

    initialization of IP cam from a remote desktop

    What to do: open TCPIPv4 properties: In that advanced, press Add on the IP settings and fill in 192.168.1.100 address with subnet 255.255.255.0 and, if asked, gateway: 192.168.1.1 Then repeat the "ping 192.168.1.108" and if positive: go on ConfigTool.exe.

    initialization of IP cam from a remote desktop

    Hang on, I'm suspecting your primary TCPIP stack is on DHCP, is that correct? Then you need to add a second IP address on the TCPIPv4 (first screen - advanced option) - for screens see here: Connect to two LAN networks with a single card This should work, even on DHCP, tried here on w10. Keep...
