    RJ45 Ethernet connection issues

    I went out and purchased these very thin and flexible fiberglass poles, 3 foot sections, that screw together and used these to pull the wires. Harbor Freight $9.00. They worked great and easy to find when pushed into the attic areas. For some very tight bends you still need a tape type puller. I...

    RJ45 Ethernet connection issues

    Have the ends and crimper. So it’s ok to use stranded copper wire? Might be move a bit. Is it going to be much more flexible than solid Or should I just stick to what I have. Wow they are cheap either way!

    RJ45 Ethernet connection issues

    Ok then need some advice. I need to make some short Ethernet cables. I think they’re called patch cables. I’ve read here about solid copper vs stranded copper cables. I have a big roll of solid copper 23 gauge copper but it’s not very flexible at all. I want to make about 3 foot cables and it...

    This computer is one of the recommended models in the WIKI section! Are you saying this model is completely unacceptable as a BI machine?

    CONNECT PC TO TV

    Great diagram! Distance of both, about 6 feet. I was going to poke a hole thru the wall into the kitchen to mount the computer monitor and run an HDMI cable. The second HDMI will run to the TV. I’ll use my iPhone for a portable viewer if I can figure out Zerotier:)

    CONNECT PC TO TV

    After researching about all these different cable types I now know what’s what I think. But to answer your question I don’t have a Display Port. A bunch of HDMI and a few USB ports. I ordered so stuff from Amazon that should enable me to connect. Well let’s hope so anyway :)

    CONNECT PC TO TV

    Looks like I have 2 display ports on the computer. On the TV there are several HDMI ports. So if I get an adaptor display to HDMI then I would get a display on my TV from the computer.

    CONNECT PC TO TV

    Thanks, display port to HDMI looks like the best route. I looked at the HDMI splitter mentioned but way to much money. I‘m already way way over budget on this project.

    I have installed Zerotier software to be able to connect to BI via a mobile phone. I thought things were working great and I was able to sign in with the mobile app on my iPhone. However this was only as I sat next to my computer and my iPhone was on my wifi network. I tested it the next day, no...

    Network IP camera configuration panel

    I can‘t see for crap with these old eyes but all the videos look pretty good except for the lower range being a bit choppy but they still look clear. I’m sure the camera used is of high quality. The one I have to be honest is pretty crappy. Next ones will be better I hope! Thanks for the Videos.

    Network IP camera configuration panel

    Ok did that and the Main stream and Sub stream dropped to 15/1fps. What about the sub stream in the camera should I also change to the same settings in the Main stream. The numbers you recommended?

    Network IP camera configuration panel

    With your help I think I’m getting somewhere. I accidentally hit the scroll wheel on my mouse and the information you gave me was right there. In the camera section it now shows the Main stream and Sub stream. The Sub stream didn’t show prior to this. Both streams now show about the same fps...

    Network IP camera configuration panel

    This is what I found. The camera sub stream is exactly as it shows it should be in the help section Except maybe the bit rate. The difference in the bit rate, main 2048 and sub 512. Also the resolution main, 2560-1440 and sub, 704x480. Suggestion? Hopefully everything I learn setting up...

    Is the user name and password stored in BI somewhere? I have what I started with but it doesn’t work now for some reason. I downloaded the BI mobile app to my iPhone and it’s asking for a user name and password.

    WINDOWS 10 PRO

    You solved the problem! With your suggestion I found the simple solution on the web. When up start the computer and that screen pops up just turn off the monitor and turn it back on again. That issue goes away. I restarted the computer several more times and the screen issue never appeared...

Any suggestion on which one? Both hard drives are new, ssd, and sata. I took out the one that came with the computer.
