Haha, already bought an 8U rack, power supply, 24 port patch panel, etc. I literally don't know where I'm going to put it. I'm going to have to run a plug wherever it's going. My electrical panel is outside, so that's its own challenge.
Thanks, I will read those tonight. I actually gave up on setting up OpenVPN on my BI server and went out and bought an ASUS router. So much easier to set up that way! Now just need to figure out where I'm going to install all this equipment.
I've actually go it all set up now on my BI server and can connect via android phone. My only question now is how to tell if it's secure? I thought I read along the way, that your ip address should show your home ip when connected. While on my phone, if I am connected to work wifi and I google...
Question - I now have OpenVPN up and running on my blue iris server and OpenVPN Connect on my Android is hooked up to the mother ship. How do you know if you're secure? When I log into wifi at work (OpenVPN is connected), but when I Google "What's my ip" from my phone it gives me the same ip...
Ok, so the backstory is that I live in a rural area with no real ISP options. I have over air internet provided by NextLink, so I don't have a WAN per say, but the satellite dish is connected to a POE port on the wifi router. The download and upload speeds suck and they lock down the router, so...
I'm leaving the default gateway that was there originally.
I'm trying to connect over the cell network.
I have over air internet from a rural provider. Irritates me that I can't get into the router and look at the settings. I haven't tested the port to see if they opened the right one, but...
Yeah, I requested they forward port 443 to BI server ip address. The ip address for the router is 192.168.88.X and I set the BI server to 192.168.88.XXX. The Android app is trying to connect to this same address.
Part of the issue is when I set the BI server to this static address it looses...
Supposedly easier to set up and at that point I wouldn't care about remote viewing. OpenVPN is running fine on computer, just Android connection im having issues working through.
Ok, I'm at a total loss now. I have Openvpn running on my Blue Iris machine, but my android device fails to connect. I checked the logs and there is nothing. I had my ISP forward the port for my BI Server, but now my server won't connect to internet when I use static up address. At this point I...
If I can't get OpenVPN working on the PC I had dedicated to Blue Iris, I may just order a NVR through AliExpress. Maybe get these faster that way, lol.
