    Server PC Windows 10 update yesterday broke server connection

    I also use it as my HTPC and for Plex. I have at times kept up with backing up my PCs but I have 3 desktops (HTPC/BI/Plex, my old Win 10 gaming/general purpose PC, and a new Win 11 gaming PC) plus a couple of laptops. Managing backups with all that would be a full time job, so I just generally...

    Server PC Windows 10 update yesterday broke server connection

    I still like to keep it up to date and I do have Windows updates set to manual so it doesn't take the system down when I am not here. The crazy thing is that this will probably happen again in a year or so and I'll be back here asking again. LOL. I don't mess with my BI much since it is...

    I found it. Back in business. Thanks, guys.

    Server PC Windows 10 update yesterday broke server connection

    That's it. I was just looking at firewall and network setting and the profile is set to public. I can't find where to switch it over though. Need to look some more.

    Server PC Windows 10 update yesterday broke server connection

    I just did a routine Windows update last night and my BI server is not visible to other devices either wired or wifi on the LAN or remotely on cell connection. I ran the server PC task manager and the BI service is indeed running properly. Then I started BI5 admin and everything looked good...

    Browsers won't connect to my BI UI3 ip address while I am home

    It appears this Open VPN conflict is just a Mac thing as I have zero issues on my Win 10 laptop. This is a relatively recent development on the MacBook Air, probably after the next to last OS update. In any case, it isn't a fatal error now that I know all I have to do is just click the VPN...

    Browsers won't connect to my BI UI3 ip address while I am home

    So, after awhile with OVPN off the browsers lost their ability to connect to the BI ip address again. LOL. I cycled OVPN on and then off and they are connecting again. But for how long? How bizarre.

    Browsers won't connect to my BI UI3 ip address while I am home

    OK, I think I have the answer... I am running Open VPN so I don't need to open a port on my router for BI remote access and I generally leave that connected as I come and go. I am home now and turned that off and I can now connect to UI3 at the local ip on both browsers. Not sure I understand...

    Browsers won't connect to my BI UI3 ip address while I am home

    Now UI3 is unreachable on both browsers again. LOL. I went into the settings as above but when I get to step 3 I don't see anything to change that would fix this issue.

    Browsers won't connect to my BI UI3 ip address while I am home

    Never mind, guys, I did another restart and now both browsers connect just fine. Which is amazing because Edge hasn't been able to connect for months. I had to use Chrome and after the last update this afternoon that had stopped working, too.... until I restarted the MacBook again and now they...

    Browsers won't connect to my BI UI3 ip address while I am home

    M2 MacBook Air... After recent OS and browser updates I am unable to view my BI UI3 on Chrome or Edge only while at home when I am connected to my local network. Both return the error that the ip address is unreachable. I have zero problem when mobile connected to the Internet via someone...

    Cam AI & BI motion detection selection and interaction

    I also took your suggestion to create a couple of profiles, one each to turn off alerts for each exterior cam when I need to be out there working... or if they start firing off excessive alerts. Easy peasy. The other thing I learnt in this exercise is that remote desktop is good at home, too...

    Is there a way to have ONLY IVS detection, not general full frame motion detection?

    Ah, I saw that but wasn't sure. I turned motion detection off but then it popped up a message that it had to be on for SMD and I thought IVS was a subset of SMD. Silly me.

    Is there a way to have ONLY IVS detection, not general full frame motion detection?

    I don't have the exact model # at hand but it is a 3MP turret Dahua from 2020 that I got from EmpireTech. The cam works great but I have struggled over the years with this challenging scene. Daytime there are high contrast shadows that migrate across the deck depending on sun angle. Critters...

    Cam AI & BI motion detection selection and interaction

    Hey, that did the trick! Alerts through BI now. I need to go back into the cam UI and turn off the e-mails. But it is truly strange because I had to use the password with the lower case letter to get back into the UI. Whereas the find/inspect said that was invalid and needed that letter to...
