OK so here's the story: every time I tested I used to import the settings from a reg file. I just now tried to completely uninstall and delete BI registry settings and start from scratch by adding the cameras manually one by one while the skip initial mac is checked, and looks like the signal is...

Wow thanks! This really worked :oops: It's really helpful not only because of firmware updates but I need to change the OSD settings etc. which won't work without internet explorer. Hmm will see, will make updating the firmware the last resort then. I will try to play around with settings. For...

What makes me confused is that "the skip initial MAC reachability" option was already there and unchecked by default on both the old and new versions, that's why this changelog is confusing me, if it was unchecked by default in new versions (5.6.2 and after) and checked by default on old...

@TonyR then you didn't read my first post here, my issue isn't about BI changing the IP address of my cameras like his last link says. That's a completely different issue. :confused: Meanwhile I will use the fix in the watchdog tab as suggested by @bp2008 Thanks for your help guys.

I used the former, I always set my cameras manually and don't rely on the inspect feature. I don't really see where "skip initial MAC, HTTP, DNS reachability tests" fixed the issues for these guys, it was all speculation in these threads, like I said, that option was already unchecked before...

"skip initial MAC, HTTP, DNS reachability tests" is already unchecked by default on old BI versions and new versions so it doesn't have anything to do with this IMO, anyway I already checked it and it didn't fix the problem. Currently trying to find the setting to get new versions to behave like...

OK so I installed updates one by one until I reached the update where the problem started happening. 5.6.2.0 is the version where the issue started happening, 5.6.1.3 was fine without this problem. Here's the changelog for 5.6.2 (where the issue started) So I guess it's about the new MAC...

@bp2008 wow setting watchdog to restart the camera window after 1 timeout fixed the issue for me. Thanks a lot! It's only about restarting the camera and new versions don't restore the signal properly for all cameras without restarting the camera either manually or via the watchdog tab. I hope...

Thanks guys, I tried again just now to "uncheck skip initial MAC, HTTP, DNS reachability tests" to make sure and it's still doing the same. I will try again tomorrow and go back to previous versions one by one and see in which version this started happening and then read the changelog in the PDF...

@TonyR here's a screenshot, it's random so any camera is prone to display and get stuck at "no signal" after connection reset: I tried changing all the checkboxes in advanced (unchecking RTSP keep-alives, checking skip initial MAC etc.) and also tried to change the make and model to my exact...

Thanks for the answer. Yes they all have static IP and the PC is connected to the same switch, I even tried to dedicate a switch only for cameras without using a router and the same thing happens. Like I said, was and is still fine without this issue on old BI 5.4.4 using the same network (just...

Hello! I am having an issue that I didn't have with BI 5.4.4 before upgrading to latest (5.7.9.4 and now on 5.7.9.7), when I for example restart the router or switch (for troubleshooting purposes) or disable the ethernet adapter, all my cameras go no signal (obviously) but the problem is that...
