    Poe splitter not working for tplink

    Did you try the splitter with a short piece of network cable? I have tried this sort of splitter as well on a non-poe camera and if i remember correct it had issues because of the network cable length. Maybe the powersupply isn't powerful enough?

    App suddenly stopped working when using OpenVPN

    Usually when you create a username with a certificate in openvpn, it has an expiration date. Could it be that you created the certificates for you and your wife at the same time and your laptop a while later? Maybe try creating a new login and test with that. On my phone (android) it is possible...

    How do you access your BluIris ?

    Or use one or more hdmi extenders to send the image of your BI pc through the house. I have rx extenders on all my tv's in the house, just change the input and i have all my cameras right there. I also use home assistant (home automation software) to change the input when somebody walks up the...

    Automatic Router/Modem Rebooter

    Do you really trust those cheap devices when you are away from home for weeks? You could introduce a whole new problem :D I agree with @biggen, i would get a new router. It shouldn't have to be rebooted after a connection loss.

    SATA PCIe card recommendations?

    I'd buy an LSI card on ebay, did it for both my servers and they work great. Mine are both Dell perc h200 LSI 9211-8i cards, the sellers already flashed the right firmware on them, so they work in it-mode. That way they can connect 8 sata drives. You'll need the special cable which you can see...

    Note 1 is not correct though, depending on the settings the camera's still have access to internet.

    I cannot connect to my IP camera Dahua IPC-HFW1235S-W anymore after the power went out

    If the camera is back to it's default settings, which it probably is since it has ip adress 192.168.1.108, you should go to the webpage. I'm not familiar with this model but if it really is back to default big chance it will show you a setup page.
