    DoS attack from Local IP

    Anyone ever have their routers log a DoS attack from a 192.168.x.x address on a subnet that they are not using? I'm getting intermittent DoS attacks being logged in routers log from a 192.168.x.x address. But it's not on the same subnet that I am using. Is this malware or a network intrusion...

    Troubleshooting Camera Connection

    TL,DR: it was the connectors Well, turned out to be a couple of issues. Turns out I was in such a hurry to finish installing the cameras before the rain that I had in fact down the connectors upside (backwards) one the camera ends. I guess I was focused on whether the wire strands were in the...

    Troubleshooting Camera Connection

    I used pass through RJ45 connectors, and the blade on the crimping tool broke, so the ends might not be the cleanest. I tried to clean them up as best as I could with a wire cutter. But the connection isn't formed from the ends right (the bit of exposed copper you can see at the end of the pass...

    Troubleshooting Camera Connection

    Solved: Had the RJ45 connectors on the camera end of the Cat 6 run upside down, and bad RJ45 connector on the network side of the run on one cam. So I'm a little stumped. I get my cameras, I plug each one at a time into my PoE switch to make sure they worked and to adjust all the settings, IP...

    Alerts Folder Size Allocation?

    @samplenhold thanks! I knew I had a misunderstanding. I watched the tutorial videos in the Wiki, but Pt 1. of "Clips And Archiving" is a dead link and missing on YouTube. Where did you pull the image from?

    Alerts Folder Size Allocation?

    VPN Primer for Noobs

Seeing as adding OpenVPN/WireGuard appears to...

    How much RAM for Raspberry PiVPN?

    For those running OpenVPN or WireGuard on a Raspberry Pi how much RAM do you think is necessary? The Raspberry Pi 4 comes in 1GB ($34), 2GB ($35), 4GB ($55) and 8GB ($75). It seems to me getting the 8GB Pi makes the most sense. May be complete overkill and not necessary, seen plenty of posts of...

    Tx Rate low and all over the place

    Anyone have an ideas or suggestions on why my Tx Rate would be so slow and ranging wildly even when accessing the same WiFi network, same 2.4Ghz band from the same location on the same device? I'm connected to the 2.4Ghz band, I'm too far away from the WiFi router to connect to the 5Ghz band...
