I recently noticed two of my cameras acting strange when it comes to viewing them. One camera will not show up on the live view on the computer interface (says live view failed) but shows up fine on the TV screen attached to the NVR. I can also view it, on my computer, under...

I am having the same exact issue and am having no luck at all. I started my own thread before I found this one and have posted as much information as I could come up with. If anyone has any ideas, i'd appreciate it...i've been screwing around with settings for three days now and got nowhere...

I gave in and set the default gateway to that of my NVR with no luck. I keep getting an error message, "the ip address and default gateway are not in the same network segment" @nayr can you weigh in please?

Sorry, first picture is the NVR settings. Second picture are the stock network settings on the new dahua ptz. The third picture are the network settings of an existing camera on the NVR. The fourth picture are the settings I tried on the dahua ptz which didn't work. I had that thought too but I...

This is another configuration I tried based off of other ipcams that are already online

Narrowing down the problem, when I try to change the IP address in the camera to match the ip that my nvr wants (192.168.180.11), it gives me an error because my default gateway is 192.168.1.1. The subnet is the same as well as the DNS servers (though I believe that is irrelevant). I changed the...

Just got a SD49225T-HN from Andy and am having some trouble viewing it on my hik 8716. I am able to view and config the camera by it's IP address but cant get it to show up on my NVR. Any suggestions? Let me know if more information is needed, thanks!

I'm partial to LTS (hikvision) cameras but a lot of people on the forum will suggest the dahua starlight turret Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z) I stick with LTS equipment as I have a distributor very close to me. Look around the forum for different posts regarding different...

You didn't attach any pictures

@fenderman, I couldn't agree more with you. However, my "friend" is a point-and-shoot type of person. She is technologically retarded so I am making it as simple as possible. If I set-up a vpn for her, I would be getting a phone call once a day that it isn't working (because she wouldn't be able...

I just set up a small LTS system for a friend and am going to go the ddns/port forwarding route for remote viewing (I use a VPN so we can skip that part). When I went to set up the ddns portion of ivms-4500, the only option is HiDDNS which doesn't exist anymore; also, there are no options for...

Holy crap! Anybody watch Shameless? Not my video lol

I have a total of 14 cameras but the way my house is constructed, there is a 1/2" conduit run from my basement to my garage. There is only enough room to run one cat6, one rg-6, and one 22/4 alarm wire. Also, my garage isn't yet insulated or finished so I don't want to run a powered POE switch...

Its funny because I was that guy about 2 years ago. I do handy work on the side and a friends deli needed new cameras. I did my "research" and came across some 8 camera analog kit for $450 and thought it was the best thing ever. Then came across a website, security-camera-wearhouse.com which...

I used this same unit to solve a similar issue in my garage. I could have added a power outlet and I could have added a poe switch, but this was so much easier and cheaper for what I needed to accomplish. It was been running strong for 3 weeks now with no issues at all.
