Wow! That's promising to know... Thank you AJ!

I'll keep you guys posted when I get the adapter by Saturday. A side question while I wait... This outdoor outlet I got... If I call an electrician to use that to give me a ceiling outlet in my patio, do you guys know if it will be the same "circuit" for the PLA to work still?

Thanks Tony! This might be just what the doctor ordered LOL!

LOL did you sense my DM coming on this!? LOL!

Thank you. What is UTP cabling? Can you paste some product links as examples of the options you laid out so I can visualize how all these products could work for my needs? One off topic question. I ordered a Powerline adapter with built in PoE to try my luck. Problem is, the outlet is an...

Right... But like you said... The cost looks prohibitive... I wonder if the Lorex could be plugged in too?

Hi Tony, thanks for your response. I didn't know most Powerlines were not PoE... Yes I have both Ip2m-841B and V3. I believe both are 5v. But those work well enough for me on Wi-Fi. I was needing a Powerline in this case for a Lorex PoE. Specifically, the E891AB... Seems like that too could be...

Hi Friends, Looking for verified Powerline adapter recommendations you guys may have that can provide PoE to an IP cam on the receiving side (not the one going to the switch)? Preferably if you have one that also comes with a built in outlet, it would be a bonus! I'm looking for verified...

As far I understood, BI has this feature working only on iOS and for Android, I believe they cite a Google or OS limitation. I could be wrong though and would gladly accept a working solution! Arlo or Nest (forget which one) had this successfully on my Android device... :headbang:

Hello Friends, Posting a solution to this in case someone goes through this in the future. So I heard back from the vendor I bought from and spent a half hour on the phone with Lorex support. There are 2 methods to reset: 1. See the attached screen shot for directions. Shout out to my friend...

That looks promising, @wittaj, looks very similar to what @EMPIRETECANDY highlighted... I can try tomorrow boys and let you know... @EMPIRETECANDY do I just hold the button or is it connect to Ethernet, then hold the button, then do something?

Yes Sir... That thread has me as the last poster... No conclusion :smash:

@EMPIRETECANDY these pictures is what I found under the black plate and then the two screws... Do you see any reset buttons or ways to reset?

I know @mat200, believe me I searched before posting... Nothing specific to this camera ..

Thanks Andy... Are you sure this plate comes off? I don't wanna break it man! :)

Thank you Andy, there is no SD card slot on these. I wrote an email to Lorex support, but I doubt they'd help me, cause they'll say I didn't buy from their store. They also have a tech support number I'll try to call and see if they help. In the meanwhile, if you have any other ideas or find...

Hi Guys, Picked up some pre-owned Lorex E891AB cameras. Unfortunately, they did not come factory reset and I don't see a physical button to reset them to access the admin console. Does anyone know how to Factory Reset them physically before I attempt to return? Here's the help link that...

Thanks for everyone's help, I'll try the advised tips here.

I think so bud. Can you share your router settings and cables and ports config on how you laid it out? Separate topic, why are you using Tiny Cam over the BI app, are there benefits to it?

Thanks @wittaj and @TonyR! Happy new year as well guys! Couple of follow up questions guys: 1. Which ports do I connect from the PoE switch to the spare router? (not WAN, but a port 1, 2 or etc?) 2. Since DHCP is off... Can I create wireless APs on this spare router to get range needed...

Hi Friends, I've recently started adding some wireless ancillary cameras to my BI set up and was wondering if there was a way I could create a separate network for these with no internet access using the BI camera IP range and subnet? Here's my set up: - BI machine NIC 1 - Has internet...

Sounds good, I'll try to email vendors or sellers before buying the next one... Thank you again!

Awesome automation plans man... Wonder how I can tell what models are v3 and if it's software or hardware changes... I appreciate the knowledge share here...

Nifty automation you got there. Thanks for sharing the experience with me. I only want to use these as my garage cameras. So you're likely right... I don't need a whole lot of tracking of moving objects, I'd say . Good catch @wittaj... Wonder what moniker in the model numbers actually signals...

Thanks! Guess I'm SOL, I got this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01MXEX7HI?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

Is it possible that this camera has a few versions? Looks like for mine they don't market auto tracking anymore...

Can you elaborate how you use it and why does it suck?

Looks like my firmware is older... How do you update it @wittaj?

Hi Guys, I have the Amcrest IP2M841B running wirelessly with my BI. But the web UI is missing the Auto Tracking feature and the Amcrest App doesn't turn on the feature and says, Failed to connect. I think there are different versions of this camera, but only software or both hardware? Here is...

Thanks for the additional input man... I didn't do anything and my cameras just reset their settings but not the password of the cameras. It could be the crazy lightening storms lately... But not sure why that would reset the settings only, but not the password and the static IP?
