I’m having this same problem. I need to export several hours of footage for the local PD and it’s limiting me to 9 minutes even when I’ve selected (using the red and green triangles) a much longer timeframe. If you figure it out or find an answer please update the thread. Thanks!

Just to clarify, you’re referring to the RT-AC68U not the RC-AC86U correct? Edit: I meant RT for both sorry for the mis-type

Thanks for the above posts I am going to look into getting a new router and check on the Bridge Mode this weekend. I will check back in and try and convince the wife we must have the AC86U ha

Thanks for that handinpalm! Would the Asus router work behind my current modem?

Does that increase cpu usage? Depending on difficulty level. I think I’d rather do what’s easiest honestly. Is there a router that would be ideal for this scenario? I wouldn’t be using it for anything other than the VPN if that makes a difference. Thanks for all the help.

So I would have to buy another router just for the VPN? If so, any recommendations?

Hi Everyone, First, a solid thank you to all the people who have posted so much helpful information. I ended up purchasing three POE Dahua cameras from Andy and couldn't be more satisfied with their performance. I am enjoying the Blue Iris software and I have the app setup on iOS for inside the...

Thanks fenderman, hopefully placing an order soon. I am finding out that some of the good outlet deals go pretty quickly. Hopefully I snag one soon.

Just a quick question, when installing the LTS 3042W camera (or one like it) is it typically necessary to purchase the LTB347, wire housing/junction? I am planning on installing the camera under the soffit and drilling through the wall and going down into my basement, I won't be running the...

thanks fenderman, another question, as for the i5 is the i5-4590 what you are referring to when you say one can be found for 300? Also, should I stear clear of the Optiplex 3020 and concnetrate on the 7020/5040?

Thanks Kawboy that's a good idea, I would prefer to do the install once so a night or two of prep would be worth it.

Thanks that's good to know. For those types of deals, do you search at Dell Outlets every few days? I signed up for email notifications but not sure if that will give me a heads up to special offers/coupons/etc...

Hi, I have been searching for a computer to run Blue Iris, I am starting with two cameras and will be increasing that to 6-8. Not sure of the exact camera yet (I have another question in another thread about cameras and location). I will have to pick up a larger HDD for video storage but I...

Hi All, I have been lurking here for a while as I started researching security cameras. I am in the process of installing an alarm system so if you are over at cocoon tech you have probably seen my questions. I have included a few pictures of my first two locations for installation of my...

Hi All, I finally joined up after lurking and reading so I could ask specific questions for my upcoming camera build and hopefully help out others as I learn more myself. Thanks for all the help already!
