    OpenVPN Problem.

    I have the r7000 as well..... Got it working eventually but I ended up installing OpenVPN Server on my Blue Iris Win10 Server as the r7000 was really an extra since I had to use something different for Comsuck. Bit of a pain at the beginning, but now it’s all working very well with 2048-bit...

    You need more than just the ovpn and key file. You also need the two .crt files. clientname.ovpn clientname.key clientname.crt ca.crt (the certificate authority .crt)

    Intel CPU Design Flaw

    Yea, just read that. Not sure I would care for a home computer... though I can see how it'd be a major issue with Virtual Machines and multiple secure machines/accounts on the one piece of hardware.

    Importance of firmware

    Eh... I would still be updating the firmware just in case I screwed something up while securing the cameras from the web... a new kind of virus infected a computer inside the network (who knows what the wife and kids are doing!), a misconfigured firewall/wifi router, etc.. Me? Paranoid...

    Importance of firmware

    If you have a camera that has known exploits in the firmware, and there was a newer version that fixed those said exploits, I'd want to upgrade the firmware. So security reasons is one reason... buggy firmware is another.... newer features you may want to use is another... probably more...

    Why does buying Dahua seem so sketchy?

    I corresponded with Andy on a Saturday (his early Sunday) and my cameras were through customs and at my door here in the northeast US on Thursday. Both cameras are working great with no issues so far. Big thumbs up for Andy.

    I’ll be submitting a RFE to always display the text for adding a new camera in the results pane. It currently only shows when no results come up, but if I search on 5321 some results show, and then I can’t submit for the ones that are missing.

    Finished my CCTV install on my new house today.

    Ah.. ok, I see the difference... not a 2 gang, but I see more spacing here: Wall Plate for Keystone, 6 Hole - White - Monoprice.com So this one is NOT a decora I assume? Would be nice if Monoprice mentioned it in the description for the 2 gang one.
