I've been doing a lot of research lately, including this forum, into the possibility of implementing a direct interface between IP cameras (possibly Dahua, but I'm open to others) and a web server as part of a commercial solution. My goal is to be able to have several cameras monitoring...

Suppose I have 20 cameras of different manufacturers. Maybe some of them will start with a fixed IP address, maybe some other will try to get network configuration from a DHCP server and, if failed, will start with another fixed IP address. I know I could connect one camera at a time to a PC...

Recently set up a dahua system at one of my new stores and the download speed from smart pss is dramatically slower then it is for my other store locations. The only real difference between this stores setup and the others is that all cameras are run directly into the NVR not a POE switch. Ive...

Hi All, I know this can be done, because I have seen it done before I just cant wrap my head around why it isnt working for me, or am I missing any other ports to open/forward on my ATT router. Scenario: I have two cameras that I want to add to my GeoVision VMS. These cameras are NOT on my...

EDITED BY FENDERMAN: THIS IS A SPAMMER FOR VCELINK. DONT USE THEM. CANNOT BE TRUSTED I'm a beginner to network installation and I have learned from the that there are various RJ45 connectors. There are pass through and non pass-through RJ45 connectors on the market and I don't know which to...

Hi guys, I purchased an outdoor cam 6 months ago on Amazon "5MP PTZ Security Camera Outdoor, CKK 5MP Wireless Pan Tilt Zoom (4xDigital) IP Camera with 64GB SD Card Human Detection, 2 Way Audio, Color Night Vision, Floodlight & Siren Alarm". This camera is now no longer available. My UDM Pro...

I am trying to obtain RTSP streams from my Hikvision NVR for the four cameras that are connected to it. Current setup is as follows: Hikvision (DS-7604NI-E1) NVR has four HikVision cameras plugged into it. The HikVision cameras' IP addresses are in the 192.168.254.xxx range according to the...

Today I realized there is no setting for VLAN ID on my Dahua Cameras. I guess I will have to use an untagged port on my switch then. Also there is no dual IP stack.

Trying to isolate my poe ip cams from the network (both for security and to save bandwidth as our network is getting overloaded even with 250 Mbps and an orbi router with satellites. I was hoping to be able to put all my IoT devices on the guest network, my IP cams offline, but connected to blue...

Hi Folks, A new poster alert! I am working on my humble setup - IP Cameras (4), WAPs (3) & Intercom (1 door station & 2 monitors) and I would need your assistance on the same. Will I be able to achieve the below setup? If yes, what kind of NVR should I go with? Or should I go with two NVRs...

I've been using Blue Iris for about 18 months. The Blue Iris computer sits in my study where I have direct access to it. The POE switch sits in a network rack in my comms room (storeroom under the stairs). I had every intention of setting up BI and then moving it to my rack in the comms...

Hello, i am a newbie so please dont judge me - i just tried to visualize how my new network in family house should be, do you think the components and logics is ok? Isnt there something I am missing? Can I take the LAN from switch to the outlet and then from the other outlet straight into the...

I use UDM Pro, and have 11 CCTV cameras, I want to change the default device (camera) client name to something more meaningful. I go to the configuration tab of the camera, type a name in the name box, then hit 'Apply ...' and nothing happens. The name does not change. For this, I'm using the...

I am having so many issues with these cameras. Following is an email I sent Wansview which did no good. 1. They will NOT connect through rtsp or onvif. I have done everything the way you are supposed to. I have the cameras set up with dedicated ips on a subnet through my router. I access it...

I recently bought a UNV NVR for my home and 8 UNV IP cameras. The UNV NVR is putting the cameras on the 172.16.0.0 network. My main home network however uses 192.168.0.0 network. Is there any reason to put the cameras on the same network or would leaving them on an entirely different network...

Hey folks, networking newb here. To give context at the request of my parents i'm setting up a cctv system for them as there have been a rash of burglaries in our area. Started with using swanns android app but quickly finding them was to many limitations with it so I went looking for...

The procedure for Dahua firmware upgrades really sucks. Jumping through the hoops..... 1) locate the firmware and DL; 2) Log into cam GUI; 3) save config; 4) reboot cam; 5) install new firmware; 6) factory reset; 7) find your cam on a subnet you are not normally using; 8) update settings...

Hi everybody! I am soon to become a fresh home security system owner and I am trying to understand a few things about the camera setup, especially the network side is a bit unclear to me. As far as sensors for siren alarm are concerned, I got that covered with a security contractor but I wanted...

I'm about to order some network goodies from Graybar, and I need more network cable. I have a box of 5E that will do gigabit but I wanted all new purchases to be Cat-6 or better. So, is there a certain brand or certain model of UTP Cat-6 cable that you prefer? Yes I will run POE: access points...

Hello all, I searched the forums and did not see any threads directly related to my concern. My apologies if I missed anything already existing. At home, I'm currently running 5 x Hikvision ColorVu DS-2CD2347G1-LU 4MP turret cameras and 5 x Reolink cameras (these are about 5 years old; I'm...

Hey folks. I have been reading a lot on this forum and i have some questions before making a move. I would like assistance from senior with experience in this domain it would be greatly appreciated. As a quick and brief introduction, i got into this new home and i would like to setup a network...

Hi everyone I'm new to the forum. I have searched everywhere and still can't find a solution. I ordered an 8 camera Wifi cctv system a while ago (it's a chinese one). The only branding I could find on it says it's a Sinye Tech Wifi CCTV camera system. On the cameras itself it only says Model...

Hi all, If anyone could assist me on this issue will be much appreciated. situation cable from camera to Rack side ( aprox 120 meters) but it has separate power source nearby the camera, when connecting directly to the laptop its working and pinging without even 1 drop out. but when i connect...

Hi, I notice on the live feed from my DH-SD49225T PTZ that it can be a bit jittery on large scenes with fast moving objects. Seems to be less so when the camera is zoomed in on a smaller area. Recorded playback seems to be smooth and so does live view on mobile devices. The DH-SD49225T IP PTZ...

I'm using the Hikvision Device Network SDK (for Windows 64-bit) to control a camera PTZ position. The control must be realtime: the camera moves accordingly the mouse movement on the screen. I have found these APIs: NET_DVR_PTZControl( [ Start | Stop ], [ UP_LEFT | UP_RIGHT | ... (8 directions...

I'm trying to determine why my cameras' video occasionally freezes/drops frames like in these two examples, both on the NVR recordings and Blue Iris recordings. Hardware: Hikvision NVR DS-7616NI-I2 (built in PoE switch, latest firmware) Hikvision DS-2CD2385FWD-I Turrets (connected to NVR...

I have tried to record to nas but get disk not ready error. Tried changing the service log on credentials to the one my nas uses. Logging into the same credentials on windows fire explorer I can add edit and delete files. Using freenas if that is useful info

In short... I have a need for a camera system that will allow me to programmatically tell the camera to start recording, stop and save to file to be referenced in the future if needed. This is to record every instance of a manual task for quality assurance. Ideally, this would work with some...

So, we took over a building that has existing IP Cameras. My ip addresses are 192.xx I believe, the other cameras were set to 172.xx The 172.x cameras are showing power on my PoE switch. I really don't feel like climbing a ladder 4 times to reset the cameras. Does anyone have any ideas to reset...
