    Raspberry Pi as an IP Camera for BI

    the rpi, especially the zero is small enough to conceal anywhere. i am looking at super small but high quality to monitor our nanny. sure there are Wyze cams but those require a cloud account and that's something i cant stand.

    how to mount without screws?

    i've tried these Tapcon before. the screws can only be drilled into the hole once right? meaning you cannot unwind, adjust the mountings, then drill the blue screw in the 2nd time.

    how to mount without screws?

    upon closer inspection, i think i will just drill a 1.5 inches deep hole to insert plastic anchors in between the tile's grout. will use your suggestion of diamond tip bits to drill the tile if needed for the anchors to be squeezed into. that would be much much more secure than epoxy. the black...

    laview LV-N9308-W disable DHCP or change the range?

    hello i recently got this NVR and it works great connecting to my cams throughout the house. it is also a wifi router built in and here's the big nuisance! my main router assigns IP in the range of 192.168.1.1 through 254. the LaView router assigns in the strange range of 192.168.254.x...

    New LaView NVR question

    i got it for $70 as well. most likely will RMA to get my money back and stick to my trust worthy HikVision NVR. the manual is very basic. playback on the app is not easy even if it works. my best advice is to view playback on the TV/monitor.
