Thank-you! Was trying on a windows 11 machine which no longer has IE. But was able to access on a windows 10 computer.

Hey all, I have 3 Dahua cameras connected to a dahua nvr (NVR5232-16p-4ks2e) - all of them are working fine and the feed can be viewed via web browser or via SmartPss. Have had things up and running for a number of years now. However, when I try to log into one of my cameras via the IE icon...

What would be an indicator that a camera or nvr is 'phoning home'? I have my dahua poe nvr locked down in that I only have one port open (port required by for apple notifications) on which it can access the internet. I check my router 'connections' log file from time to time and the only...

Have you actually disabled internet access (on your router) to your nvr? Either via a firewall rule or some routers will let you block internet access when viewing the device in question (nvr). If you have, then you must have set up a firewall rule to allow access on the port(s) the...

Hi, Is anyone else seeing this? If a push notification is triggered, that notification does not show up in notification list in iDMSS Plus unless: 1. The phone is on and the app happens to be open at the time the notification is triggered, or 2. You click the notification banner. At which...

Hi, I have a simple A<->B ivs trip wire rule at my front walkway. It works great, but is 'triggering' more events than I would like. For example, if 4 people walk up to my front door in a row, 4 basically identical events (and thus push notifications) are triggered. Similarly, if a package...

Thanks. That is what I thought. I have looked through that list a few times since I've set the nvr up (about a month now) and never have I seen my nvr's ip address in the list. I do have 'block internet access' set, but would have thought if it was making an attempt it would still show in the...

Also, can you tell where you were viewing the logs (and specially which log) that showed the nvr calling home? Was it the Connections tab in the System Logs section?

Awesome, thanks. I will give this a try when I get home. Curious, did you block the nvr internet access just via the blacklist or did you also 'Block Internet Access' when viewing the NVR in the client list on the router, as per below?

Thanks!

I still have not figured it out. Granted, I sort of took a break from trying after my post above. Are you sure? If I am on my home network (no vpn installed) I do not get notifications. If the nvr cannot access the internet, how can it send the push notifications? As I understand it, push...

premature post above. https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/anyone-using-an-asus-router-blocking-nvr-bi-internet-access-and-receiving-apple-push-notifications-if-so-how-are-you-doing-this.47581/ I get that locking things down as much as possible is a good idea. But not sure I understand the need to...

I am at this point now. Have my PoE dahua nvr and cameras setup. The nvr puts the cameras on a subnet separate from my home network. Great! On my router, I have blocked nvr from being able to access the internet. Of course now I cannot get push notifications and am not having much luck...

Hi all, Got my Dahua PoE NVR and 3 cameras set up over the weekend. I am using an Asus RT-AC68U router and have it preventing my nvr from accessing the internet. When the nvr is not blocked, I get push notifications (trip wire) to iDMSS Plus on my iphone. When nvr is blocked, as expected, I...

Maybe at some point. For now I'm sticking with the nvr I just purchased.
