    IP Camera resetting to DHCP

    The camera was definately set to DHCP instead of static. I found 2 more cameras on my network that went back to dhcp but they never booted (or even bootstrapped) so they still had the old IP address which is outside of the dhcp scope. I changed all cameras to not have the arp/ping setting...

    IP Camera resetting to DHCP

    Thanks Mike That's what I was lookkng for - to confirm that BI either can or cannot make these changes. Same thing for the NVR side I think I have a lead to track down. The camera itself has the setting "enable arp/ping to set ip address service" checked. My understanding is that the Dahua...

    IP Camera resetting to DHCP

    Thanks for all of the responses. I regularly use Chrome except for a few certain items that don't play well with it. I've had no other issues with the other cameras and while I see using a non-standard browser may cause saved setting to not truly be saved, I have a hard time believing that it...

    IP Camera resetting to DHCP

    Thanks for the reply We're keeping Comcast for the TV (currently FIOS only offers internet and phone in my town - they don't have the rights to offer tv yet). As for getting a different router - see my post above. I'm not against it but for various reasons I'd like to get the stock out of the...

    IP Camera resetting to DHCP

    I don't disagree (I'm an old network geek by trade). But this is for a small boat club that I'm on the Board of Directors for. I'm the only network guy we have and I'm trying to use the KISS principle so when I'm not there just about anyone can handle it. Explaining where and why I have the...

    IP Camera resetting to DHCP

    Thanks Unfortunately, the Comcast router (at least the one I have) will not let you set up a reservation outside of it's scope. Hopefully the FIOs router has a bit better DHCP server than the comcast one and this issue goes away as I will be able to go back to DHCP reserved leases. But I'd...

    IP Camera resetting to DHCP

    Hello I have a few cameras set up and one is being my problem child, Dahua IPC-HFW4239T-ASE-NI. About once or twice a week, it will reset from a static IP to DHCP so I lose insight into it until I hunt down the new IP and change it back. For background, I have both a Dahua NVR and a Blue Iris...

    I plan to use this as an LPR. Slow moving vehicles in a parking lot or stopped at a gate only. Mounted roughy 15'-20' off the ground about 150'-175' feet from the car. Is this the right choice for that application? Also, I noticed it was cheaper to buy from you on your aliexpress store vs...

    Hi Andy Are your Loryta cameras upgradable directly from Dahua? Specifically the DAHUA DH-IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E. Are there any differences (other than the logo) between the Dahau version and the Loryta OEM version? Thanks!

    IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E LPR Night time problem

    So is the Dahua Sunrise/Sunset Utility installed on a PC (the same one running Blue Iris) the best way to change the day/night profiles on a camera?

    Prowling Porch Pirate Plate Procured - Pilfering Plunderer Pinpointed

    Thanks to all who have helped me! This forum is a great resource! Got me going down the path I want to go on. Wittaj - a manual lookup is probably what I'm going to do, but it's nice to have options. I don't see it happening, but if I need to start looking up info too often I'm going to use...

    Prowling Porch Pirate Plate Procured - Pilfering Plunderer Pinpointed

    Forgive me for all of the questions - I'm an old school computer network guy, but new to the video surveillance world. If I'm reading you right, the program written by GymRatz does a lookup from the plate based on info from OpenALPR correct? If that's true, then it should be able to identify...

    Prowling Porch Pirate Plate Procured - Pilfering Plunderer Pinpointed

    Thanks for the info guys! As for OpenALPR or Plate Recognizer - I notice that each of those has output data for make, model, color, etc of the car. Does that tie into a database somewhere where it pulls the info from the plate or does it just use it's own detection database? The reason I'm...

    Prowling Porch Pirate Plate Procured - Pilfering Plunderer Pinpointed

    Also, how would you compare that camera to the DH-IPC-HFW5831EN-Z5E? Much less optical zoom but more digital zoom?

    Prowling Porch Pirate Plate Procured - Pilfering Plunderer Pinpointed

    Hello DLONG2 Would you mind sharing a few night pictures and setup of your LPR? We're in the middle of installing cameras at a small non-profit boat club (we're about halfway done) and want to install an LPR pointed at our gate as an LPR. I'm looking at the IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E based on the...

    DH_NVR5XXX-4KS2_MultiLang_V4.001.0000003.1.R.200813

    I understand that this post is regarding NVR5XXX, but I have a NVR4216-16P-4KS2 currently running firmware V4.000.0000001.1 V2.0. I have been unable to find the release notes for the most recent firmware for this NVR (I believe V4.001.0000000.3.R.201022). Can anyone point me as to where I can...
