    I need a vandal proof Ip camera

    You can kind of go the "stealth" route here. I have hidden a small camera in a piece of galvanized conduit pipe I then painted over (except for a small hole) and then mounted it where the ceiling and wall come together. It looks just like an exposed electrical conduit. Put it in all of them and...

    Multi-site VPN connected camera installation

    Hi all! So we own a small medical testing (lab) company. There are 3 locations, each connected via a Meraki MX85 site to site VPN so we can access resources on remote networks. We also have 500mbps of bandwidth per site via redundant fiber. Here is what I want to do: 1) add 10-20 cameras per...

    Stolen NVR

    Not familiar with the Dahua NVR, but can you map it to One Drive to save videos in so if they steal the system you have a copy of the videos right up until the time where the unit was powered off?

    Problem with vpn while on separate WiFi

    That is very...odd. Can you install a terminal app on it? Any one of these will do: 5 Best SSH Terminal Apps for iPhone - Manage your Cloud Project on the Go and then we can see the local IP, then see the arp/routing table and try to figure out what is going on?

    encryption on recorded video in NVR ?

    I always have a battery backup and do my updates religiously. I think in 2 years I have had 1 time where it restarted without my knowledge. I also use a small form factor server (intel nuc) for my 6 cameras so it uses little power.

    Problem with vpn while on separate WiFi

    My .02 here- split tunneling being turned off will route ALL of the client device requests to the VPN's network and very likely solve the problem. IP routing is pretty well defined and prefers all locally connected devices to ones that have to transit a connection, adding weight or "costs" to...

    encryption on recorded video in NVR ?

    On my system I use Win 10 Pro with bitlocker (as mentioned above) but for every triggered event I upload to my google drive so if they do steal my dvr I still have video evidence.

    New installation advice

    We have streetlights down one side of the street so it wouldn't be a low light type of deal. I would LOVE to do ptz, but I understand that is a bit pricey.

    New installation advice

    Si Since the field is a rough rectangle, I could put one at each corner of the house and have overlapping fields of view? I can afford one now and it will be after Christmas before the second one is affordable. I was hoping for one camera with a wide field of view.

    New installation advice

    OK, so I have the starlight up that was suggested and have the Intel NUC with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD with a 4TB Internal drive for storage. My problem is not my field that I have to cover. The Starlight was great for the driveway and pool area but overlooking a field that is 200yds long and...

    NVR lost password

    OK, so I have a client who fired his IT guy because he was pretty inept. By his own admission (IT guy) changed the password to the clients NVR and then forgot what he changed it to. It looks like a generic NVR and the only product ID is this: DVR tag JPG And the board on the inside is tagged...
