    Software for Camera Placement

    I just got my 8 cameras today from Andy. II am looking for optimal places to place them on the house. I recall I downloaded an software application for my computer and direct connected them to my laptop for viewing. This way I can find the best place for them. Could anyone tell me the...

    IP POE Camera recommendations

    Thank you for the response. I tried getting ahold of Andy, but his email failed. Can someone provide me with his contact information so I can get some cameras ordered? Thank you very much!

    IP POE Camera recommendations

    I recently sold our house and purchased a new one. I had some Dahua fixed cameras that I purchased from a member in this forum. They were great at the time. They were the IPC-HDW5231xx. Now I am wondering if these cameras are still the ones in favor because this was back in 2018. I still...

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    Odd request here. Someone from this thread really helped me out last year. We discussed my whole setup over the phone. Now I just can not find his contact information anywhere. If he stumbles onto this, could you shot me a PM when you get a chance. It would be really appreciated.

    He gave me his phone number, and I was going back through here looking for it and I can not seem to find it. I just felt like there was some type of instant messenger almost.

    Messenger on here

    There was a guy on here that helped me out back in August of last year. He was super helpful, and I had a few more questions for the guy. Now I can not find his contact information :(

    Messenger on here

    It has been a little while, since I have been on here. I was speaking to another member on a cam setup, and I want to say I was speaking to him via a instant messenger through this site. However, I can not find the old logs. Am I just making this up or is there a messenger that is on this...

    Mobile App

    I am very much a noob. I just downloaded gDMSS and was reading an article on how to setup the app. This is the one I am referring to: https://www.smartcamera.services/cctv-system-user-guides/how-to-set-up-the-dahua-app-dmss-on-a-smartphone However, when I read your post it sounds like I...

    I am sure this has been discussed, but I tried searching and could not find anything specific. I have an all Dahua home setup with 4 Cameras on POE Switch that is connected to my Dahua NVR. I love the quality of the picture day and night. I selected these cameras over others from the input...

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    I have been working on my physical configuration of my network to get ready to apply the config file to my edge router. I think I am pretty close, fingers crossed. The one question that I have is on my NVR. My Switch1 is physically located in the garage. Everything else is in my living room...

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    I went ahead and re-worked the physical connections for this setup on the Edge Router. Now on ETH3 port of the Edge Router I have a POE switch that is then connected to my 4 cameras. So now I have the following physical connections on the Edge Router. ETH0 - Nothing ETH1 - Input from the...

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    Well here is my rough rough draft of my home network. From reading the initial posts by @guykuo it looks like I need to add another physical switch to isolate the camera network completely. I think I have an unused non POE switch that I could implement. If I have a non POE switch, that is...

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    What program did you use to do this network diagram. I am trying to implement this tutorial but would like to share my network diagram before I get started. I know this will be a challenge for me but I am willing to try and take the time to get it down.

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    10/4, it is going to take a fee days to get everything in. The switch was not in stock so it might be a bit on it.

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    Due to my feeble mind I am trying to copy @guykuo setup on the Edge Router X. I do not mind purchasing another POE switch to to mimic the setup. I think the dog at the last 12V power supply so right now I am using the POE passthrough. So I just ordered a new replacement 12V power supply and...

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    I could not find my 12V power supply for my EdgeRouter X, so I just ordered another on of those. Then I checked the model number of my AP it is indeed the UAP-AC-LR so it looks like from the specs you sent over it does support POE 802.3 af. So I went ahead and ordered the Ubiquiti US-8-US...

    Home Network with 4 Dahua Cameras

    Thank you all for the responses. I think I most certainly need to power my Edge Router with conventional 12V plug. The reason I had it setup like this in the first place is I thought you could only use the POE out on this router if you used the POE in piece. I have an AP in the ceiling that...

    My gosh thank you so much for taking the time and effort to put all of this together. I want to get started on this right now! I have my system already installed and I have it wired in physically, but want to isolate each LAN like you have them isolated. However, one of my questions is I have...

    Home Network with 4 Dahua Cameras

    Dahua NVR Software

    Thanks @catcamstar for the quick response. Today first things first I would like to get my network up to snuff. I ordered and installed all this equipment after my truck was stolen. Nothing like a little post mortem security. I got everything up and running, but I am not under any illusions...

    Dahua NVR Software

    I have an NVR 5216-4ks2. That would mean that the software that is running on this device is indeed the DSS Express software? The reason I ask is b/c on my laptop that I use to access the system from time to time that I use is Smart PSS. It looks like from what I have read I need to maybe...
