I've been using the EZVIZ DB1 for the last few years. One of them finally died today. (Camera still works, but put pushing the button has no effect, which makes it useless). Most everyone on the RCA HSDB2A thread seems to be moving to the Reolink. Since I'm Wifi and traditional transformer...

So reporting back. I loaded the Nelly Firmware (using the EZViz studio application). That worked nicely. However, my Milestone Xprotect Essentials+ was unable to detect the ONVIF stream. I know the firmware was successful since the http://192.168.1.115/onvif/snapshot.jpg worked. I then...

So I bought the EZVIZ, but want to integrate with the MIlestone Xprotect NVR. I went thru support with Milestone, and the RTSP stream just doesn't work with the camera. (I'd have to open a support incident to diagnose further) It's just easier to switch to a firmware that has ONVIF. What...

The wire itself is good. I was more referring to the method they used to do the connections. (Stapling on the main house beam). I'll replace with proper wirenuts. I'll probably still replace all the wiring anyways, as I wanted to move where the junctions are made, I eventually want to finish...

Thanks for the 101, you've answered almost every question I thought of. I bought two of the EZVIZ DB1. Before I can install them, I need to redo the wiring for my doorbells. This is how the doorbell on my 70 year old house has been wired: Not that there is anything wrong with that. :)...

I know there are difficulties buying hikvision cameras. Are these US firmware?

I'm replacing two camera's in my house that were purchased about 5 years ago on a whim. (Dlink 942's) One covers my hallway, one covers my kitchen. Kitchen is about 11 foot wide by 15 foot long. Hallway is 4 x 15 long. Camera's were mounting in the corner shooting the long way toward the...

So those model number lead to many threads discussing those camera's at length. Taking the advice of the group mind, the IPC-HDW5231xx seems to be what I'm looking for. (Awesome write up on the 42xx on one of the threads here. Camera quaility is so much better than I expected.) Even found...

I've been using Milestone Xprotect essential for a few years now with 3 camera's. (1) Hikvision DS-2CD2432F-IW (2) DLink 942L All 3 are setup and work fine, but the microphone is disabled. (Seems like it's almost a requirement based on all the forums I've read) I need to enable the...
