    Yeah I mentioned the reason why i put the object and time really high is because I wanted to see if that'll stop the triggers. Look at screenshot #1 and #2, the little red lightning in the triangle, that symbol is always on regardless of whether or not the red border is around the camera. Isn't...

    Forget this issue, I'm not going to go continuous recording. Once I turned it off, the issues of haziness as you see in the last pic went away as well as dying cameras and quality. Looks like the idea of continually feeding that much data at the same time over wifi is troublesome. I am going...

    Here are screen shots. Note how both cameras are always in a triggered state. I tried to make the object size and contrast really high to see if that changes anything but nothing happened. Then I set zones but still no luck. [/IMG] (This was the issue I was having earlier) : I just...

    Quick question, I set up zones for triggers, and increased the required size and contrast but both cameras are in triggered states and doesnt seem to go away. What could be causing this? I made sure to delete the street in the hot zones as there are cars passing by.

    Ok I found dahua. I see what you mean now. The cameras are back up with reduced settings. I will give it until the end of today to see what's going on and if it doesn't resolve, Im buying the dahua. I would just hate to re-install all the damn wires.. Thanks for the help, I appreciate it

    I mustve looked up the wrong model cause I saw $650 for the dahua. If its 135 then that is ok. What's a reliable site for dahua? I dont think i saw those on amazon or if so I mustve missed them. For the uneducated they all sound like chinese brands I just went off of amazon reviews.

    The error I am getting is RSTP 400 bad request. So I went into the Video settings and instead of autodetect, I selected FDT model and camera feed is back. I dont know what it means but what it's worth it seems to be back. FD7901/2/3, 8901/2 RSTP.

    I thought amcrest, fdt and foscams are all the same company. I just got an email from FDT that they are working with or partnerned with amcrest. The dahua is way out of budget for my needs. I guess arlo is out and so is nest. Ill try a bit more troubleshooting since theyre installed and...

    fuck, i spent all day installing these and routing the power wires. How certain is it that it's the cameras and not something else? Wifi is the best option so if there are better wifi cameras out there that'd be ideal. i looked at Nest seeing as how their quality is probably on point, but their...

    and now both cameras are down. Unable to even detect cameras on BI using auto detect or manually via IP despite all other apps finding and getting live stream. FDT's desktop IP search tool is also showing 2 cameras on network. FDT web live view is also down. Mobile app streams are not. What's...

    Hello, I'm new to security cameras and after much research of what I need, I just went with 2 wifi cameras and blue iris. The cameras are there to just monitor any suspect activity while I'm away and we have been getting HEAVY package thiefs. 8 lost packages in a few months. I didn't need wide...
