Thank you. Foolish me, thinking I could change the camera's format through BI. I found where you said using camera's IP with IE in camera's GUI under: "Setting" tab -> "System" drop-down -> select "General" -> "Date&Time" tab -> "Date Format" field drop-down. Thank you for your help in...

PC and BI both have mm/dd/yyyy format, but camera has dd/mm/yyyy format on camera display in BI. Where can I change the format for the camera. Date and time for all match, and are correct. Thank you in advance for any help.

Thank you, Wittaj. You all have been a great help. LOL, I'm sure I'll have plenty more questions as I stumble forward with my install.

More questions: 1. The initial screen has a message: "Please click here to download and install the plug-in". Given that it is an exe., is this a safe thing to do? 2. This camera doesn't have a storage card. Is there a way to confirm that it is working, i.e. by streaming live images to the...

WooHoo, that was it. Thank you, thank you.

Oh Thank God. I forgot about that reset button. You only need one decimal place to score my IQ. Thank you for the much needed help. Does the camera need power when it is reset, or disconnect power then reset?

Well, I think I screwed the pooch. I wrote down the PW but did not see a username field and can not log back in. Is there a default username, or have I just burned $175?

Thank you. I didn't see your post until after I replied to wittaj.

Thank you! I connected. The setup wants me to enable P2P. Should I disable P2P? Also, what was the reason for disconnecting the internet NIC?

Ok, I have disabled the system board NIC. I left the NIC connected to the 7040 on auto IP, and made the NIC connected to the switch 192.168.1.10. When I type that IP in the URL field of the browser, all I get is a bunch of web articles that talk about that IP. No camera GUI.

The camera is PoE. How would it work without the power from the switch?

I can't access the camera from the 7040 with IE(Edge) using the IP given in the Dual NIC instructions of the OP. I have updated the network map with the IPs that I know. I don't know the IP for the switch or camera, since I can't see them.

Below is my system topology. I followed the steps in the Dual NIC installation forum, but can not access the camera's GUI. The 7040 is used, but seems to be working fine . The dual NIC card is new. The camera is new. The Modem and Mesh routers are a month old. When I access the router GUI, I...

How do you import the file so it displays instead of just showing a file? Never mind. I figured it out.

Pictures added.

The 3.5" 6TB is in the upper bay above where the DVD was located. The original 2.5 drive is where the DVD was.

Thank you Mike.

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll make that change. A couple of questions: Is the BI Db folder not created during BI install? Is the BI Db a separate item I need to purchase?

Well, the drive is installed, initialized, and is formatted. I removed the DVD drive. I removed the original 2.5" HDD and its caddy. I removed the 2.5" drive from the caddy and placed it loose where the DVD drive was and reconnected the original power and data cables. I installed the new 6TB...

Thanks TonyR. Do you know what the 3rd, 2-pin connector is for on a WD 6TB Purple drive?

Wittaj, I am trying to kluge in a 5.25' WD 6TB purple as my second drive by removing the DVD drive and using its cables for the 6TB drive. However, there are 3 connectors on the 6TB drive. One of them only has 2 pins. What is that connector for, and is it necessary to work?

Has anyone figured out how to add a 2nd 3.5" HDD. I bought a 7040 tower from ebay thinking of course you can add a second HDD. Now I don't know.

Thanks for your time to respond and for not making fun of my ignorance guys. Regarding the Ubiquity products, I don't like having to use a third party cloud service for their products. Too bad their isn't an OpenWRT for switches. There isn't, is there?

I was thinking of this as if all the cameras would be streaming at the same time, which is probably wrong. Thank you for your responses.

Are there any mfgs that make a switch like the heading? Unless I misunderstand, the switch uplink speed seems to be the bottleneck for surveillance systems. Am I wrong?

First, I'm a noob. When I got the asus router I didn't know it was a gateway. Being a noob I thought a second router would spread out the bandwidth load. Yes I now realize that all the traffic has to go thru the Arris gateway regardless. Should I just remove the Asus since it now appears there...

By internet crap I mean typical internet links when you google something. My problem is that I can not access the Asus router administration web GUI as it is now connected. My computer is connected to the Arris gateway via an ethernet port, and the Asus router is also connected to the Arris...

My main (ISP) router is an Arris (Spectrum) gateway. I have a T-Mobile Asus Cellspot router connected to the gateway via an E-port. When I make the connection and log into the gateway, I can see the Asus under ethernet clients as "Unknown" name, IP 192.168.0.3. I try typing the IP in the URL...

Samplenhold, thank you very much for taking the time to capture and post your network topology.
