I’ve tied that. They have a comms cabinet with a Cisco POe that’s linked to a Data Port by Excel. But I’ve tied DHCP and it’s issued a new IP address but I think the firewall is blocking any new IP addresses.

I am looking to replace my Ring Door Bell after the subscription price increase. I’ve Dahua Camera and I’ve seen they do a Door Bell. Has anyone used one or fitted one? Can they sit on your WiFi network? As I’ve no way of getting a cable to the Router.

I’ve tried setting up an NVR on a Managed Network that has a Cisco POE and Draytek Firewall. I can view the cameras on the IP Address of 192.168.1.26 but P2P isn’t Online even when it’s enabled. How it’s currently connect is 4 way switch POE port 8 way switch Uplink 1 - LAN port on the NVR...

I am referring to the IP Address of the camera which usually starts 10.1 etc should I change them to 192.168. Or does it not matter?

I’ve an ASUS ZenWiFi AX Whole-Home Tri-Band Mesh WiFi 6. How can I set this up so that I’m not using P2P. Also is it wise to change the default IP Cameras to on my IP Network?

Right okay. I didn’t know that was possible. I can’t seem to find the thread?

Yes it’s the NVR? I assume it can be done through the NVR or do I need to unplug each camera and then go into it?

That’s what I’ve got:

Where is that?

Is it possible to make the audio better on a Dahua IP Camera? All I pick up is wind noise outside.

Any Channels that you would recommend? Or books to get started with.

Okay I will see if Dahua have anything. I also know we fit some WiTek.

Could anyone recommend a set of networking book that will help with cctv installs. Setting up switches and bridges and wifi extenders?

Right I will give that a go. So I would essentially plug a cable into uplink one that would go to the NVR and then plug a cable into uplink 2 that would go to the other switch into uplink 2

They are the switches: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/304730906166?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ZVuJLxT7Sf-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=-hh-nLs6TQy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY It’s just got an Uplink 1 and Uplink 2

Can anyone recommend a good network book that covers switches, bridges, access points etc mainly for CCTV.

Right okay. What ports would I connect the Cat5e to on each switch? Do you just add the switch in the same was as adding cameras? How do you get the cameras to go on to the switch and some to the NVR?

Right okay. How would I add two switches to the NVR. As it’s at two ends of the building with the NVR in the middle? Also how would you do it in the gui of the nvr. So from complete scratch of adding the NVR and cameras onto the switch?

I’m after some advice. What’s the best way to add an Dahua 8 way switch to an NVR so that if I have say two switches to one NVR? Is that possible as I’ve never done it before.

I’m thinking of buying this NVR is it any good? NVR5208/5216/5232-4KS

It’s a Dahua 5MP IP Camera with LED Lights. It’s connected with an RJ45 Plug. Access is through the NVR and when I’ve added the camera. The status is showing green in the Camera menu on the NVR.

I’ve a weird issue with a Dahua IP Camera it works and then all of a sudden it says network unreachable. It finds the cameras okay and the status is showing green. Any ideas?

Couldn’t get it to work. Changed the ip address of the DVR and the other camera went off. Then changed the one that I was adding to a ip address in the range of the dvr and nothing. Definitely think it’s a laptop job.

I assumed it would work out the box. Most things are plug and play now.

Do I need to activate the new camera? Sorry for the daft questions. We don’t use Hikvision and our boss has said to sort it for a mate.

Can you do this through the NVR as I don’t currently have a laptop. We’re getting new ones apparently.

Okay I will check that. Do I need to changethe IP Address on the new Camera?

Okay so how do I change it? To get it to work?

Sorry it’s connected to a Poe switch the NVR is a hybrid.

The one I’m adding is 192.168.1.164 the other is completely different. I can’t remember that address sorry.
