    Am I Over Reacting?

    Hard to say. Sometimes when I'm early meeting someone, if I'm on foot, I just wander, or lean on a fence or something. Could be innocent enough, but you never know.

    Review - TOP-201 Super Mini 720P HD IP-Cam (The Cheapest IP Cam So Far !!)

    I grabbed a few just 'cause they're cheap, and small. The first one is replacing a really old crappy 4Xem POE camera in the garage. It's big, ugly, and only 640x480, and no 64 bit drivers Since my project to mount one of my Hiks on the soffit about the front door is on hold (fell off the...

    Anywhere to buy in Canada?

    I'm not aware of anyone in Canada selling Hikvision product, but Hikvision recently opened a Canadian division, so they may very well be looking into resellers. You could always ask them. Hikvision Canada 4485 Rue Dobrin, Montréal, QC H4R 2L8 Canada Tel: 866-200-6690 (toll free) Fax...

    Review - TOP-201 Super Mini 720P HD IP-Cam (The Cheapest IP Cam So Far !!)

    Well I installed my first TOP-201 yesterday. "Installed" may be a stretch, I double-sided taped it to a wooden railing in the garage, beside my really old 4Xem cam. Can't do any of the cam changes I want to do until I'm off crutches. Even then, a ladder may be somewhat painful after that...

    Camera guidance

    I don't think anyone mentioned this yet, domes can be a bit limited in their adjustabilty, so do some checking calculating before you commit to domes. Turrets can be a happy medium between bullets and domes.

    Camera guidance

    I agree with Fenderman, bunch of paranoid drivel. But are we really re-hashing this AGAIN? There is nothing wrong with "grey market" cameras with "kluged" firmware. I have 7 Hiks, 5 of them "Grey market" and I don't foresee EVER upgrading the firmware. And if for some reason I need to, Ill do...

    Nelly's is also a reliable reseller of Hikvision. Don't expect Ali pricing though :)

    USB Borescope camera

    Is that 3cm to infinity fixed, or is it adjustable. If it's fixed, that would be a great tool for inspecting potential wiring runs, before drilling larger holes.

    Can't they make Foscam run 5 gig wifi

    I love 5Ghz. I get much better bandwidth on my laptop and mobile devices than 2.4 I use wired for everything except mobile devices, and my laptop when I'm on the couch. I do plug it in when at my desk.

    Review - TOP-201 Super Mini 720P HD IP-Cam (The Cheapest IP Cam So Far !!)

    Indeed. I have 7 Hik 2032s, 2 cheap trendnets, a crappy dlink and a really old 4xem. I don't need any more cameras. So of course I have 3 201s arriving next Wednesday. :)

    Bike thieves

    Not bad at all. It always amazes me when you see footage on the news of bank/store robberies, and the video is close to useless it's so bad.

    Insects and Cameras

    What's the alternative?
  22. T

    Exposing to the internet.

    As Mike said, VPN is your most secure bet, but an alternative, don't expose the cameras themselves, expose a web server (Blue Iris, Zoneminder, or whatever flavor you choose) that way, you control the O/S patch levels, and software updates. Known exploit? Patch, or change to something else...

    Why does it seem Foscam and Hikvision cameraa have most problems with BI updates

    My Hiks are 720P 10FPS iFrame 10, 1/30 min shutter. Recording direct to disk. Pretty solid for quite a while now. My foot still hurts a lot , thanks for asking. Ice, elevation, and time are all that's needed for now. Probably some physio later. Hopefully will walk again in 6-7 more weeks :(...

    Windows 10 - Words of wisdom with BI

    Some good points. I agree everything *should* be ok, and for a system not running a lot of different programs, no big deal. My comments are based on years and years of corporate experience dating back to before Windows. We have some apps that plain will not run (vendor actually warned us) on...

    Windows 10 - Words of wisdom with BI

    Can't say I've disagreed with much of anything you've posted, Fenderman. But this, Absolute truth. Never upgrade Windows. It's a pain. Backup everything. Export registry hives for all your software if you must. Hell, even screenshots of settings. But don't upgrade. And always wait for...

    Yes, it does suck. Been doing it for over 20 years. I was in our new (less than 2 years old) hospital on Sunday - Fell off a ladder and shattered my foot. Be careful mounting and wiring your cameras, kids, I get to not walk or drive for 6-8 weeks - Anyway, the computer they used to show me...
