    First Set up/activation questions

    Okay thank you all for your advice! just curious though, going to sound like a child, BUT WHY?? Lol Why is it advised to activate the NVR first, without the cameras plugged in? Just curious the difference this makes.

    First Set up/activation questions

    Will this method automatically assign all of the IP address and other settings? I’m not too familiar with changing IP addresses and all of that. Also, how do I check that the NVR and cameras have updated firmware? Can I do this after they are all activated and connected?

    First Set up/activation questions

    Or should I activate NVR then add manually via NVR? If plugging in to NVR and setting it up that way, do I plug all 12 cameras in before I power on NVR? Just confused since there are so many different methods and I can’t find a suggestion of one over the other and the difference them all.

    Acusense NVR Question

    So I just order 11 5 MP Acusense turret and dome cameras for my house. I was told to also get the acusense 16 channel NVR. Was stated that the AI features work better with this NVR vs the regular I series NVR. After searching on here I now see the limitations of the acusense NVR. But I can just...
