    Blue Iris remote access wish-list

    Just an update... Remote Desktop for Android, Zerotier installed on my phone and my PC-NVR. I'm currently away from home and connected to mobile data. BI is fully functional, as is the entire NVR tower so I can open a browser and directly access the web interface settings for each camera...

    IP Cameras Using 3G/4G Connection With No Public IP

    Agree with @TonyR, I believe Zerotier may work if you use a PC-NVR and install the Zerotier client on both the NVR and your home computer, then use Remote Desktop to log into the Zerotier subnet that you created. If I remember correctly Zerotier doesn't require that the Target device has a fixed...

    Help needed! HFW5241E-Z12E Zoom & Focus screen has no video display

    Update/resolved: @EMPIRETECANDY, I updated the firmware last night using the link you posted. It didn't fix the problem on the browsers I'd been using and I ended up trying IE as recommended by @wittaj with the browser plug-in (which I'd never used before) . All the features worked. Then as if...

    Help needed! HFW5241E-Z12E Zoom & Focus screen has no video display

    Thanks for the reply @EMPIRETECANDY. I'm pretty sure that's the same post from which I grabbed the new firmware update 3 weeks ago. Worked fine until yesterday. I'll verify if it's the same version/build /release when I get home. @wittaj, I can't believe I didn't know about the zoom/focus...

    Help needed! HFW5241E-Z12E Zoom & Focus screen has no video display

    I've been lurking/learning for the past year. I've had a HFW5241E-Z12E for license plate capture (no LPR software) and two turrets monitoring my front and back yard. After countless settings-configurations on the Z12E only producing "meh" nighttime images I saw this post and decided to grab a...

    Blue Iris remote access wish-list

    I just came across this Zerotier tutorial specifically for the purpose of using the Blue Iris mobile app remotely. 30 minutes later I'm up and running! I downloaded the BI mobile app almost a year ago but I've never used it because I didn't want to forward ports and I couldn't get OpenVPN...

    Opinions please on these 4 cams + NVR

    Thanks everyone for your feedback. Looking into EliteDesk and Optiplex options for BI. @sebastiantombs & @Sybertiger : I'm swapping out the front and rear IPC-T2431T-AS turrets (1/3", 0.008 lux) in exchange for IPC-T2231T-ZS turrets (1/2.8", 0.002 lux). @aristobrat & @bigredfish ...

    Opinions please on these 4 cams + NVR

    Hi. Really hoping to get some experienced opinions on this setup before I pull the trigger. We recently moved into new construction at the edge of a very large development (~1000 units in 15-20 subdivisions). Our property is on the corner of the last side street before a dead end at the edge...

    Hi from North Carolina

    Hi folks! Been lurking for a month since my neighbor's open garage was burglarized and his Ring didn't detect motion. He mentioned something about "wi-fi jamming" as a possible explanation. Soon after this I learned about "deauth attacks" and lost all faith in my 2 Ring cameras. We recently...
