Just want to compare notes with other 5 series AI (WizSense) owners on here about your NVR's total bandwidth. Spec sheet says, "AI Disabled: 384 Mbps...AI Enabled: 200 Mbps...Security Baseline V2.4" Mine shows "Remaining Bandwidth / Total Bandwidth: 220.62 Mbps / 236.00 Mbps with the...

Thank you for explaining that. I really appreciate it.

Will give that a heavy thought. Have read about Merlin a few years back but was a little too iffy about doing the jump. I need time and mental strength to muster up the will to do it since this is a new thing for me. Right now NVR's on time.windows.com and "CAM Time Sync" checked so I can't...

The poster child of climate wokeness.

Remember this...there will never, ever, be any good solution nor will there ever be any peace in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. I have always stand by this creed since the day I saw the Backstabber grinning and shaking hands with Rabin back in the 90s. I never trusted that man nor anyone with...

Because that is where their heart is (the Democrat Party and Hollywood) -- not in Israel. They will only support Israel if the Democrats are in control over there. You ever wonder why Obama tried to influence their election back then and just recently Schumer called for the take down of...

Don't know how to thank you, Mike...but you've made my day! :) I have the AX86U and since it's also an ASUS I just followed your instructions and...VOILA...the WAN door is shut! All four of my cams are now in the slammer. :clap: Shall I block the NVR too?

I have the NVR5208-EI (non-POE) with the same Virtual Host checkbox that you are talking about. My current setup is...4 cams on an external 8-port 10/100 POE switch with 2 Gigabit uplink ports. One of these ports is connected to the NVR and the other to an ASUS router AX86U. Do I need to check...

What type of UPS...the sine wave ones or the boxy ones will do?

Yep, just learned about that from another thread. Still wondering why Toons and others are livid about the brand, not just the cameras. Back to the switches...these Reolink switches are not proprietary, are they? They will work with other camera brands, right?

Is it because of the stigma that comes with the brand or is there something wrong with the switch? Is it proprietary?

Ok now I get the picture why to stay away from Reolink cameras. :) But that does not explain why to avoid the brand altogether. Their RLA-PS1 POE switches got good reviews on Amazon. Is there a reason to avoid them too? Or, is it just the cameras?

Noted. Currently I have 4 cams running on the old NVR and I could see myself adding 1 or 2 more depending on what’s going to happen after November. I will be maxing out at 6 and that is it. Right now I’m eyeballing this Netgear GS308PP 8-port Gig 83W Poe budget. Seems to be a perfect fit for...

Yep, more is better I understand. But I’m just not comfortable plugging in non-POE devices to ports that are powerered even with auto-sensing. Gives me the hibbie jibbies. BTW, forgot to take that off my list…my apologies. Anyway, these cameras don’t really need gigabit ports, do they? I know...

Hello, I'm planning on getting a replacement for my IVS-deprived NVR42A04-P. Fan noise is top priority so any fan in addition to the case fan is a no-no -- not even a Noctua will convince me. Got 4 cams for now (2 interior Amcrest and 2 exterior 5231s) but probably will be adding a couple more...
