    Amcrest 5MP PoE Bullet Cam IP5M-B1276EW-AI with synology Surveillance station

    The Synology Ds224 is now on the same switch as the cameras. Not sure what you mean by take the router out of the equation. Not an expert by any means but have been able to do all my own networking. There is an option in the Synology to limit the bandwidth of not just the cameras (SSS) but...

    Amcrest 5MP PoE Bullet Cam IP5M-B1276EW-AI with synology Surveillance station

    UPDATE: For those that come across this thread later, my problem was that the cameras were using too much bandwidth. This was killing the internet connection locally. I had success adjusting the bandwidth of the camera streams but to prevent issues later it is possible to limit the bandwidth...

    Amcrest 5MP PoE Bullet Cam IP5M-B1276EW-AI with synology Surveillance station

    wittaj, thanks for the reply. I think I tried just one camera but I'm not sure. Done a lot of playing around with these cameras in the last few days. fenderman said something about the bitrate and it got me thinking. I have the same resolution but not the quality setting between the...

    Amcrest 5MP PoE Bullet Cam IP5M-B1276EW-AI with synology Surveillance station

    Fenderman, thanks for the reply, you make good sense and I will put your suggests to work. Also, it makes sense that any camera with the same bitrate would produce the same result. However, the Hikvision does not cause an issue while either Amcrest does (all set to the same mobile resolution...

    Amcrest 5MP PoE Bullet Cam IP5M-B1276EW-AI with synology Surveillance station

    This is getting frustrating :mad: Don't understand why these Amcrest cameras are causing a slow down on the network. Here is how I'm testing from off site. I log into the on site Synology's web interface from my desktop about 3hr away. I bring up the connection log and refresh the list...

    Amcrest 5MP PoE Bullet Cam IP5M-B1276EW-AI with synology Surveillance station

    Attached is a diagram of my network. This is at my Uncles farm and is 3 hrs away which makes it a little more difficult to diagnose. I can log into the Synology and the windows desktop via Teamviewer. Messing around with the two new Armrest cameras I have noticed that the slow down happens...

    Amcrest 5MP PoE Bullet Cam IP5M-B1276EW-AI with synology Surveillance station

    I purchased two of these cameras on Amazon for my Synology Surveillance Station (SSS) camera system. They had the features I like and were reasonably price but I failed to check the compatibility with Synology. Turns out they are not listed in the SSS but were added as Amcrest generic. At...

    Backdoor found in Hikvision cameras

    For a camera with a backdoor like my DS-2CD2332-I it seems the best way AFAIK. Nice image but I don't trust the firmware. On my LAN I use Tinycam on the android device and a windows program call IP Camera Viewer for the desktops. Outside the LAN I go through the Synology.

    Backdoor found in Hikvision cameras

    Thanks for the reply. I only mess with this network stuff a few times a year when setting something up so knowledge is limited. I did turn off UPnP in the cameras but failed to do it in the router. I do have all ports block to the camera's ip in the router but the web site canyouseeme.org...

    Backdoor found in Hikvision cameras

    I have 2 of the Hikvision DS-2CD2332-I 5.2 firmware on my uncle's farm. Over a year ago,1 of them was getting disconnected form the Synology NAS. Unable to log in I would have to use the software tools to get it reset. After a few times I replaced the old Dlink router with a newer Asus and...

    Hikvision DS-2CD2332-I motion detection problem

    This time I went to the system-maintenance tab under advanced configuration and did a restore. I then imported the config file I recently made (after having problems) and still have the same issue. The cameras firmware doesn't seem to want to use the expert settings under motion detection...

    Hikvision DS-2CD2332-I motion detection problem

    Ok I used IE and cleared all the selected area under the normal option and save the changes. This time it stuck and the whole screen is still unselected. Only problem is now its not recording anything even though I have 2 or more areas selected under the expert option. I guess its time to try...

    Hikvision DS-2CD2332-I motion detection problem

    I have 3 Hikvision DS-2CD2332-I cameras. They have worked well for about a year. I use them with a Synology 413j NAS. I use them with the Synology Surveillance Station. The sylnology does the recording but the cameras do the motion detection. In the last few months I noticed the cameras are...
