    Reading Camera settings

    Thanks. Will try it. Noted each 'locate/change' in the Wiki was based on being on same LAN, and that's the issue with the different IP address of the camera. I might be able to guess it as the standard IP address is _ . _.0.1 as I changed the 0 to my year of birth in the primary LAN. Believe I...

    Reading Camera settings

    Had running fine with BI on 2 NIC system...then my SSD died. Of course I had no backup as this is a dedicated PC so easy to re-install Windows and BI on the new SSD (Drive C:) as all data is on as separate hard drive (Drive D:). The problem is, BI cannot find the cameras as I probably have to...

    Can't connect to Blue Iris on LAN

    You definitely want INBOUND, but a bigger problem, at least in my experience, is Centurylink. It is great that they provide a "free" cable modem/router. Normally, I only need internet and supply my own cable modem (currently Arris Surfboard S33) and router (Asus), as I don't need phone (no...

    Date/Time issue

    I am really scratching my head on this one as went through the menu and camera properties unable to find anything. It is really two questions, but both time/date related as displayed on the camera monitor screen and impact all 4 Dahua cameras. First Question. Each camera displays a date/time in...

    No cameras showing in Blue Iris (or when troubleshooting SmartPSS)

    GOOD NEWS...THE CAMERAS ARE BACK UP! Appears there was a problem with the Dahau POE Switch not transmitting power. Bought a Netgear GS108PE managed port switch. Running in the most basic and had to set the entire network to 192.168.1.1 configuration as couldn't see them in the .51...

    No cameras showing in Blue Iris (or when troubleshooting SmartPSS)

    Yes, there was no cable connected to that 2nd internet NIC when that IP config was run as the cable, typically connecting the POE switch and cameras (when they worked) was intentionally routed to the to an empty port on the router to take the NIC out of the picture during the troubleshooting...

    No cameras showing in Blue Iris (or when troubleshooting SmartPSS)

    Made the switch...still no cameras. I am guessing power is not getting to the them via the switch. Not showing as an active client on the modem and "Zero devices Found" report on the Config Tool program. 6 clients showing, normally 13 with the other IP setting and modem shows the port with the...

    No cameras showing in Blue Iris (or when troubleshooting SmartPSS)

    I thought I did...or at least 90% of it...in post 3. Until I re-read it, seems I left out the second PC NIC which was 192.168.51.150 (noted later) as I copy/pasted the relevant part of the of ipconfig for the BI computer. It is a solo modem (Arris TM1602) that Spectrum provided for free and...

    No cameras showing in Blue Iris (or when troubleshooting SmartPSS)

    I did realize when typing the above that BI only changed in software, and ran the Config Tool last evening, and again this morning. Also, POE switch is still connected directly to the router rather than the second NIC on the PC. Screenprint of Config Tool. I have used it before to change the...

    No cameras showing in Blue Iris (or when troubleshooting SmartPSS)

    Had recent problem with Comcast internet and since the trial was running out switched to Spectrum. (Advantage of having both cable post in my back yard - haggle for new promo or switch to competitor.) Bringing the system back up everything works except the cameras which reflect "no signal" on...

    Drive-thru KFC in Gainsborough fines people driving past

    Understandable, but write a letter to management (better yet, CEO at Corp HQ and copy local management) telling you are a long term shopper going elsewhere. Outline the whole drop-off petrol return issue. They may not even be aware of it. Question how many are doing the same but don’t have the...

    Adding camera to rear

    I noticed that to. I think he meant 25ft, not 25m (approx. 82ft).

    Adding camera to rear

    Currently have 2MP Starlights in other locations - zoom over driveway and 3.6mm on both sides. While one is inside a screen patio, the other two actually turned the IR off and eliminated the moths false alarms. Both exterior are supplemented with solar powered motion detection floods so don't...

    Anyone using IPC-A46 or similar for indoors?

    I noticed the IPC-A46 on Andy's site but literature and reviews is sparse. Likewise searching this forum with "IPC-A46" keyword gave 6 pages of returns...but couldn't find the camera embedded in any discussion. With my outside camera, despite tight zones and motion sensitivity, get so many...
