    Dahua SD1A203T-GN-W Review

    Theses were just sample pics I took when trying different settings. They give an idea of how well the camera works without IR for my street without street lights. Currently the camera is more zoomed out and covers my driveway and entrance area. Was just hoping there was something I missed in...

    Dahua SD1A203T-GN-W Review

    My lens was zoomed in a bit, and yes it is a bit brighter when not zoomed in. I would guess from camera location to the two lit windows is about 120 feet. There are no street lights, but there is city light pollution, and the neighbor had his spot light on. It is bright enough you can easily...

    I wonder if mine has a problem. This is the best image I can get at night without IR. Maybe I am missing a setting? This is with backlight set to BLC. I tried other backlight settings, brightness, contrast, etc, but this was the most detailed and best image I could get.

    I am still using a temporary mount, as I am moving it around and trying different places. I am thinking it will go in the entry way about eight feet off the ground, good view of the street and anyone walking to the door. WiFi has worked fine for me, no issues. Not having to run network...

    I wanted to follow up that Andy gave me a $15 credit that I used for a mount, which showed up today. So Andy made it right. On a different note, I wish the night vision without IR was better. The best I could get was by setting backlight to BLC at night. Which means if I don't time the shift...

    This should do the trick - How to access your Chrome apps without the apps launcher If you get lost or need more help on it, let me know.

    Sorry, late to the party. I am using NACL in Chrome. I found a way to add it to the task bar so I can get to it quicker, as before you had to put in the IP address, put in your login, then open the app, then login again. Wish it would remember the IP address and login info though. I have...

    Some sort of compensation would have been nice. Keep in mind it was through aliexpress where it is easy to kick back a few bucks to the customer. How would you feel if you got a brand new camera but it was already scratched and gouged up? A couple of those are pretty deep cuts. :(

    BTW mine came gouged when I got it from Andy. The box was undamaged, and it was protected by foam. So I wonder if it was damaged before shipping. Andy just said it scratches easily so I guess I am stuck with it.

    Dahua SD1A203T-GN-W Review

    Got it working. I had two problems, one the cat 5 cable I used had some issues which a new cable solved. And two, I could use AES TKIP mixed mode. It had to be WPA2 AES only. AES is better so that was fine. Now I am spending many hours playing with the settings and seeing what works best...

    That helps. I will play with it later and hopefully post a mini review. Thanks again.

    I just got this camera. Are there any instructions on how to connect it to the network? The instructions included with it only tell how to mount it.
