    Redundancy for Surveillance Systems

    I don't have any knowledge on comparing FTP to NAS. I have a Netgear NAS, and it has the ability for me to make folders for clients and family, that I can set size quotas on, and they can access thru a cloud portal. The interface appears to have many more advanced features, but I don't use...

    Redundancy for Surveillance Systems

    You as the business owner, want to offer clients a way to backup their security footage offsite. When you offer something like this, the expectation of reliability, security, and privacy are held to a higher standard. Your customers are going to expect, that if and when something happens, you...

    Logitech Alert cameras in BI

    Sure thing. Mine works with guest as user, no pw, but I never messed with the adapter settings. Here is a couple links for the powerline adapter specs and the Logitech Powerline Network Utility Tool 1.0 that may help you find more information on your settings...

    Logitech Alert cameras in BI

    And NoloC is correct. I have 2 indoor Alerts, but you can use the powerline adapter for other IP cameras. I have a Hikvision cube running thru a Logitech adapter. I do not know how much power it supplies though, I could not find any specification sheet for the adapter. The adapters are...

    Logitech Alert cameras in BI

    chetwynd, I think I can help, I have Logitech Alert cameras working in Blue Iris. You will need to use the Commander software and run the diagnostics to get the IP address of each camera. Then go into your router settings and reserve that IP address. You have to do this in the router since...

    consorts, did you mention your Amcrest camera not added to Blue Iris yet? I received my camera, but haven't put into service yet due to weather, but I have mine working with Blue Iris. Here is a screenshot of the setting page if this helps. (complete the IP address)

    FYI - Amazon lightning deal on Amcrest ( Dahua OEM ) 8MP bullet $64

    I had been looking at this one for the front of my property since it has decent street lighting. IPC-HFW2831T-ZS The back of the property is no light. I just purchased and installed my first decent quality camera HDW5231R-ZE (I didn't know anything about what I was looking at when I got my...

    FYI - Amazon lightning deal on Amcrest ( Dahua OEM ) 8MP bullet $64

    Well I've spent more money on lesser quality cameras, I don't think I can pass up this price and either keep as a backup or use in a location with plenty ambient street lighting. I'm slowly upgrading a Q-see system to better quality Dahua cameras that better suit the location they're in...

    QC8116 - Excessive Login/Logouts in log and also Rebooting on its own

    Gus_19, I had to wait until my NVR came back from RMA this week to try my last idea of adding the cameras to channel 2 and up, then seeing if you can change the channel back to 1. I can't do this with my NVR, even though it looks like the number can be edited, but I cannot change it, the...

    QC8116 - Excessive Login/Logouts in log and also Rebooting on its own

    And you have already tried latest firmware and reset to default...so if all of your other equipment is the same, and you've tried putting known working cameras on channel 1, to the best of my experience, I would say firmware issue. Especially if all your cameras are the same, running same FW...

    QC8116 - Excessive Login/Logouts in log and also Rebooting on its own

    Apologies, I mis-understood. Your cameras are connected to POE switch, and added to the NVR via IP address? And your issue is with the channel 1 in the NVR, so whichever camera you add to channel one has issues? As in adding the cameras to the NVR in a different order so channel 1 is a...

    QC8116 - Excessive Login/Logouts in log and also Rebooting on its own

    All the other ports work fine? The intermittent issues, or issues where everything seems to be a variable, are the hardest to diagnose. And convincing a VAR that there is an issue with their firmware is almost impossible. I don't think firmware would cause an issue on one port only. That...

    QC8116 - Excessive Login/Logouts in log and also Rebooting on its own

    Dixit, I'm new to the forum but I purchased my first IP camera system a couple years ago, and hopefully learned a lot since then. I don't know if you have found a resolution to your issues, or are still monitoring your OP. The IP address of 127.0.0.1 is your loopback localhost, basically you...
