    Get a grip dude, there’s no need to start personally abusing someone. Pretending you know exactly what someone did or did not do shows how deluded you actually are. My advice to you is read back on your posts, have a cup of coffee...maybe two and think before replying.

    Again thanks for your analysis, not sure how you can claim facts against what I have and have not done. Anyway enjoy your day and take a chill pill or something!

    So are you saying the 10 day money back guarantee is actually not true? You seem to be missing the point along with your followers. Regardless of if it is user error or not it clearly states there is a guarantee to get a full refund. It’s not that hard to understand but hope it’s clearer for you...

    Thanks for your analysis, I am the first to admit (as stated in my previous posts) that I did not test them properly initially. Once the problem reared its ugly head I followed all the advice here including changing the cables used. Regardless of all of this it does not take away from the facts...

    User error is easy enough to state, the facts are others are reporting similar issues and being faced with a similar conundrum. The vari focal cameras I purchased have a poor network connection that drops out at random times. Anyway as I mentioned I will not be purchasing from Andy or any other...

    Fully agree, my order experience with Andy was not very good at all. Having reported my issues within a week trying to return the items was made as difficult as could be. All I wanted was replacement items but was told I would have to pay for the return and be subject to possible rejection if...

    The Vari Focal ones (at least the models I have) are extremely flakey with network connections. If I could choose again I would avoid them and go for the newer fixed versions.

    Hi Andy, Can you respond to my emails about the returns please. Thanks

    Hi all, reporting back. I have tried all the combinations suggested. Took the cameras down, connected via a short cable (copper) directly to the POE switch and exactly the same symptoms occur. Tried using a POE adapter for power but that made no difference. Factory resetted both cameras, again...

    I thought that could be an issue initially as I had assigned them all static ip addresses, but even after swapping them to new ones it didn't resolve it.

    By the way to add a bit more to this conundrum, I have been constantly pinging one of the ip addresses for the vari camera and so far they have not disconnected...uptime of almost 90 minutes now.

    Thank you, I will try that option as it will confirm/reject my suspicions that there is a problem with the cameras. It just seems to much of a coincidence that it occurs with the vari focal ones and not the newer fixed version. Appreciate all the advice guys

    Oh sorry misread your initial reply and thought it was better to use CCA cables. Unfortunately it is an unmanaged switch, my brother is coming over with his Ubiquiti managed switch tomorrow though so we will do some more checks. I did try swapping the ports etc on the unmanaged switch...
