    Network hogs

    I thought I'd better report back. So it appears there's nothing wrong with my WiFi at all! Not great, but 38mbps is good enough out here. Tested: Comp Setup A9 extender Superb for me anyway. So what's the problem? According to our ISP our phones are unlimited, the wireless gets throttled when...

    Network hogs

    Hi peeps, Goodmorning. I'll run some more tests today as suggested by spaceman. I looked everywhere to see if it's possible to splice my directional dual band antenna and use it on the sma terminals. Google does not seem as smart as 8 years ago or so, so nothing found. Thank you.

    Network hogs

    We have 2 plans (so called). Mobile Internet. This is just for phoned. Wifi Internet which is of course for other stuff including security. What I've found in the last 5 weeks, perhaps longer than I'd realised. Even here at home I have to enable WiFi to see a Camera. I think I'll just upgrade...

    Network hogs

    Will try as you say. Thank you very much indeed for the time spent. My neighbours simply do not care, what's best for them, works just fine. You've given me a few good ideas, though, thank you again

    Network hogs

    Truth is I just don't know. They hang from most villages around here, but so far as I can see, they are NOT wired connections, just a hop to the tower? I have a tr ml6400 Tp link router. It is not dual band. I have an antenna that is dual band pointing in the direction of the tower, some 2km...

    Network hogs

    Hi Spaceman, thank you. It's pretty add hoc around here. One provider hung cables and boxes along tree/light poles. We are not with that company, no idea if it is good or not? (Promises). As regards wired. I do have the usual ethernet ports on the router, but it is still wireless. I have not...

    Network hogs

    Hi all, hope this finds you well. I have a worsening problem regarding bandwidth. My setup is simple: sim/router/modem. Archaic really, but I live in a lonely place lol! So. When we first got hooked up to our new provider, we were getting a horrible 17mbps. But it worked OK for a long time...

    Icsee Pro issues

    Thank you very much for your reply. I'll take a good read on this. I do have to update my local CCTV, no audio which is crucial in my valley, everything can be heard, which can be a bonus as well as a nuisance. But the addition of audio, a must. Look as I might, audio with CCTV comes at a huge...

    Icsee Pro issues

    For anyone reading this. I have access to my cams again. I did this via share option using a QR code from my wife's working app. Not perfect, but a workaround. Still no reply from support. So my question is: If I bought Blue Iris for example. How do you guys keep your computer alive in a...

    Icsee Pro issues

    Update: My wifes phone did not have the recent update for Icsee Pro. It works fine. I did send all required tech info to app dev 4 hours ago. Not even an auto reply. Most definitely a broken file update. There was a title I read somewhere. "Blame the app, not the camera". Something like that...

    Ukraine related: Was Ukraine Government Is Handing Out Guns To Citizens, What Happened to Gun Control?

    I think..... If this was a war between Canada and the USA. You might just appreciate the situation much better than perceptions posted here. This is a bad conflict. There's nothing slightly funny about it at all. On a good day I can see the mountains near the border. They are just 775km away...

    Icsee Pro issues

    Thank you. Interesting read. Except at the bottom where it says "publishd". I'm moving back to cctv. It's a pain, but what to do? The irony is that without them, that being the 'ip's. I'm relatively unsecured out here. They caught a lot, which was later prosecuted upon. The App dev has started...

    Icsee Pro issues

    Hi all, long time no speak, apologies. I have a major issue with Icsee Pro. Nothing works, no reset, no connection. It appears others are having issues too. Does anyone here use it, if so, do you now have problems? Thank you.

    Ip camera pig tail code

    To my detriment, I've brought them up well. They know door handles, how to open them.

    Ip camera pig tail code

    Sir, indeed. It was fully liberated and carried away. I'll probably find it about the time, the Russian's get here. Funny what they take, really :-D

    Ip camera pig tail code

    Hi there, I use only the power jack, not poe. I wondered if 1 or more wires were combined for power. I.e. from the poe side. Anyway, thank you.

    Ip camera pig tail code

    Thanks, yes I looked around at these. Mine as stated have black and red wires. The camera is rebranded, so no way of telling what make it is. Only 'Loosafe' as a brand name. From what I can find. Black is DC- Red DC+. Since it does not light up, I guess the board is dead. Many thanks.

    Ip camera pig tail code

    Hi folks. I'm wondering if there are some techies that can help please. I had an ip cam go down. I suspect the wires were pinched. It does not power up. I cut the pig tail off in the hope I could see if this was the problem before ordering a new pig tail. Or if its the board, getting a new...

    IP CAM, wifi ranges, possible workarounds.

    Hi peeps, I can't give any info at the moment. It's hot, the valleys are full of summer people with cells, computers, heck anything that connects! Hence bandwidth flows in and out. I can barely see playback, even at home! When fingers get cold, they tend to drift back to Cities. Perhaps I can...

    IP CAM, wifi ranges, possible workarounds.

    Firstly, thank you for taking the time..... There's yet again a nasty storm heading this way, 2 hours out from what I can tell. I'll reply with the stuff asked for later, thanking you again.

    IP CAM, wifi ranges, possible workarounds.

    Thank you. Hmmmmm, a very long hmmmmm. Ok, my repeater has never registered a mac address, no name, nothing. I know it works from the days of no antenna. Dual band is all I know. Shows 2 bars when signal is there, this is all I know. There are no external config ports, usb ect. It was...

    IP CAM, wifi ranges, possible workarounds.

    Hi folks, thank you very much for the informative answers. I tried the @user thing, but it did not work for me, apologies for ignorances shown. I will write down suggestions, see what I can do. I didn't think about the foil behind the antenna, also did not know, a signal, is just a signal...

    IP CAM, wifi ranges, possible workarounds.

    Goodness. Not enough variables for me lol! French? I have a fab French tutor for projects I am working on. He doesn't chide a student for not knowing everything, just encourages me. He knows that there is no such thing as a stupid question, that the students question is only as gooda as the...

    IP CAM, wifi ranges, possible workarounds.

    Thank you I don't believe in coincidences I will check, but I do not remember seeing any setting on my cams like that. Very odd though. I have 1 cam on a tree, not 15 meters from the problem, that works fine. Anything connected level with his place is dead. Same family put up a hunting camera...

    IP CAM, wifi ranges, possible workarounds.

    Thank you. They used to work quite well before my neighbour put up his. Since then its been either erratic or dead. He's on a different provider. No chance of lined net here ever. If they can't get water here..... So bottom line. Concentrate on my CCTV.QPity, caught a lot of bad stuff on them...

    IP CAM, wifi ranges, possible workarounds.

    Hi folks, I have a particular problem. I use a mini router device modem for my wifi network. Its not perfect. But it has worked ok for 2 years until recently. I have several IP CAMS, budget types. Anyway, my neighbour has cams too. I used to have signal in the outer garden, not great, but...
