    Trying to find these interlogix cameras on my network

    I was gifted 6 of these interlogix ip cameras. When I plug them into my network I cannot find them looking at my router, or using my dahua config tool. Fairly certain they work, as the IR works. Do I need a different config tool? Furthermore, password is unknown so that will be another...

    Recommendation for small interior camera (baby monitor)

    I purchased both the 2mp and 4mp models and received them both today. I connected them both via wifi with the amcrest app and can view them via that app. I can also find them with the dahua ipconfig tool and can access them with the webui. They are sucessfully initialized, however, I still...

    Recommendation for small interior camera (baby monitor)

    Excellent! Just ordered the camera, thanks for your help. I didnt even realize I could do wifi cameras on my NVR (dont roll your eyes at me lol). I'll try that route first.

    Recommendation for small interior camera (baby monitor)

    Apparently my search skills arent up to par since I didnt find any threads lol I'm not familiar with running non dahua ip cams on my nvr but i know its possible. Price point on that amcrest is certainly good

    Recommendation for small interior camera (baby monitor)

    I have a 16ch Dahua NVR and looking for a small Dahua POE camera that would work as a "baby monitor." I had one about 5 years ago but I've misplaced it and don't remember the model number (probably discontinued anyway). Also planning to purchase a Fire Tablet with GDMSS for monitoring unless...

    How to view Dahua cameras without browser plugins

    So whats the current solution for being able to login into Dahua cams web UI. I've tried internet explorer, edge in IE mode, chrome, and the NACL plug in and I cannot access my cameras to enable IVS rules. Let me rephrase. I can log IN- but after that everything is so messed up I cant really...

    Blurry Camera

    I recently moved one of my Dahua Turrets and the image is extremely blurry- unusable. I took the torrent cover off and it's still blurry. And thoughts know what could be the issue? I'm assuming I damaged an internal wire or something when I moved it

    Dahua NVR 5208-8p-4k - $150

    A few years old. Purchased from Andy. Comes with the box, cables, mouse. No HDD. Probably needs a firmware update. Works perfectly. Only selling because I purchased a 16 ch model. $150 shipped.

    2 routers - 2 POE switches - 1 NVR?

    Ive found 2 gigabit POE switches that are in my budget. The first one is a 16 ch with 2 uplink, and the 2nd is simply marked 8 ch and doesnt specify an uplink. (i'm not even sure what that means). Is this how I hook it up? Router 1 - 16ch Uplink 1 16ch Uplink 2 - NVR 16ch POE port 1 -...

    2 routers - 2 POE switches - 1 NVR?

    I tried running DMSS on my laptop - but it seems to time out eventually or something - i'd check on it the next day and have to reload everything. I didnt realize there is a way to get the app on Fire Stick. I have one on every TV so that would be great.

    2 routers - 2 POE switches - 1 NVR?

    I bought a 500 foot spool of Cat 6 and trenched in 220 feet of it. I swear, within 10 minutes of backfilling it I thought to myself "why didnt I bury a 2nd line? I have plenty!"
