I have a Dahua camera that's given me 4 years of trouble-free service. Today I switched its physical location and now it doesn't want to obtain an IP address. When I plug in the ethernet cable (which works), I can hear a "click" from the camera, so I feel like it's working. I've held down on...

My network is on 192.168.86.xxx My camera on an old network and now I'm trying to move it over. It has an IP of 192.168.1.xxx and was assigned the same IP on my new network. When I try to do an IP reservation to change the IP, I can only change the last 3 numbers. But I need to change the...

I want to mount my camera outside under my soffit. I don't have attic access and will be fishing a wire from my basement, around my vinyl siding trim, arriving at my soffit. I need a junction box of some kind to keep my connection between the PoE camera and the ethernet cable dry and secure...

How would a turret style camera perform if it was pressed up against a window - with the camera inside facing outside? I understand that this isn't an ideal setup but I have a particular area of the home I want coverage and we're going to move in the next year or two so I don't want to put in...

I have BI setup. Works fantastic. I have it recording a Windows desktop and have the mobile app. I also have alerts sent to my email. This all works. BUT, I can't access my video stream (via the mobile app) via cellular or non-home wifi. Something happened when I upgraded my Windows machine to...

Is there a particular reason why my motion masks keep resetting back to nothing? Anytime I can a setting, my mask resets.

Very excited to finally receive my Dahua HDW4421 (x2) I have everything hooked up to my PoE switch and both run fine on a demo version of Blue Iris. However, when attempting to find the camera's IP addresses using "Advanced IP Scanner" it only finds "one" camera IP. However, in Blue Iris...

Can anyone comment on the Hikvision DS-2CD3131-I and the Dahua IPC-HDBW4421R-AS IP I'm considering these two. Both are basically the same price, but the Dahua has more features (SD card, audio). My main interest is reliability outdoors in the Canadian climate.

These are the two angles I'd like to record with my IP cameras. They're both shot on an iPhone with a 35m equivalent lens and in roughly the same place I'd like to position the camera (but under the soffit and not through the window). The first shot with the front door and car, that angle I'm...

I'm looking to buy a couple of DS-2CD2132F-IS cameras, but I can't find a Canadian source. And I'm not sure if I want to risk going the China route. Is there another brand that I could purchase within Canada? Even if I have to pay more I'm willing to do so.

I'm completely new to IP cameras, but would like to have a 3 camera outdoor setup looking at my 3 exterior doors. I'm located in the east coast of Canada, so the camera will be exposed to rain, ice rain, show and the cold. I plan on locating all cameras under soffits, so they should be...

I'm looking for a simple, one camera setup for my home. Basically all I want is a camera the points outside to the street (located inside from a window) that can record my cars and my front door. A camera with a wide angle (120*+) should be able to capture all that. A couple other...
