This is my best so far.

I'd like to see this software get a section in the "other than Blue Iris" softwares section. It is a quality product for Mac users.

I started using Security Spy, a Mac software about a month ago on a Mini M1 and am pretty happy with it. The NVR thing just got old. The menu system and window options are well organized for different tasks / operations and It is very intuitive if you want to dive in before reading. There is an...

I get it. Thanks.

I thought it was a pretty good vid and rewatched parts of it a few times. Much of the first part I was familiar with and this pulled allot of it together. His explanation of 8 bit was really good.

I didn't state it correctly, but check out the vid at 1:00:50 (one hour : 50 seconds). That's where he is explaining how to allocate the space in the subnet mask for the second network. Is the IP address 192.168.2.xxx going to reference the space he creates with the 255.255,255.198 subnet mask...

This is a great video for the concept of subnets but it stops at the practical. It shows that If you want a second network within your network you would use a subnet mask of 255.255.192.1 and why. Now that you understand how this subnet mask is derived with 8 bit octets, and that is used for...

This is not difficult to understand, it's just difficult to get specific answers with out getting joked around by someone who would put more effort into messing with someone than it takes to answer a specific question. Thank you for that and please don't try and help me any further. I don't...

Doesn't help me. I use a 16 core Mac. Just looking for a simple answer.

It's really hard to find good ones. That's a really good setup. I got a second wireless router to take that next step. Running some wireless cameras without bogging down the home network was the goal and, having security like that is the best. I'm using Mac and Security Spy. Is there some way...

FWIW, I go with cameras that can be factory reset manually (with a button inside) and then set a static IP address with my user name and password. Then I label them with my assigned IP to skip the search process and log into the camera directly. The IP address starts at the router and propagates...

Good call. Thanks Kameraad.

All three switches are 1000s. Replacing one cable brought the speed up.

The new ones are called Ezlo and they are all local, no cloud, with the fastest processors. I'm using a VeraPlus and it's been bulletproof with 80 devices. The Ezlo is on hold and not yet ready for prime time. Z-wave plus doubled the range and improved the mesh. I don't know how they do it. It...

It was the 50' cable. I put a 50' cat 6 cable in and yeehaa. Still 3 5e cables in the line and the speed is great.
