    Very small PoE Cam for bird feeder?

    Final update on my end. I was able to reach the eBay seller I bought the defective cameras from and after some troubleshooting they issued a full refund and said I can do whatever I want to with the cameras. Too bad they are paperweights! I did order another from a different seller so hopefully...

    DOS attack's

    Just to add. If you have CenturyLink as your internet provider, for $10/month they will give you a static IP address. You have to go through several layers of customer service representatives until they understand what an IP address is and what you mean by Static, but it’s possible. Likely not...

    Very small PoE Cam for bird feeder?

    Update! I bought one from @TonyR and have the video feed up in BI! Just defaulted it using the reset button and it grabbed a DHCP address. Logged in and changed it to static and adjusted the video settings per his post. Don't forget to enable the Microphone checkbox in the camera GUI :) EDIT: I...

    I have a separate IoT VLAN that can't access the rest of my network. I haven't gone to the level of restricting internet access on that network yet but I should look into it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Very small PoE Cam for bird feeder?

    Port scan found no open ports, although it did help me discover that two of my amcrest cameras are still connected to wifi even though I am running them off of ethernet. I did message the seller but have not gotten a response yet. I will wait to see what they say. TonyR I might take you up on...

    Very small PoE Cam for bird feeder?

    Well, I think I might have to write these off as a loss. Thankfully they were only $8 each! All three pull DHCP addresses and I can ping them but the web interface won't load. I factory reset all of them with no luck (power on - hold down reset for 10 seconds).

    Very small PoE Cam for bird feeder?

    Mine came today. Having a hell of a time getting the web GUI to come up. They show up in my router table and get an IP address but all browsers give a "site can't be reached". I can ping it and get a reply, just can't get to the UI. I'll play with it more later tonight. I've held the reset...

    I use octoprint on a Raspberry Pi with a cheap USB webcam. It allows me to watch and control the printer. Also has an RTSP feed so it's a cam in BI as well! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Do you have a PTZ autotracking camera, good or useless?

    Exact same for me. Two auto trackers basically for fun. And 29+ cams to guarantee coverage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How do you really use your cams and what's your experience for those use cases? Non-professionals only

    I now have 23 cameras on Blue Iris. I use live view all the time to set what's going on outside. Either checking on the dogs, seeing if the mail is here, or wondering what noise I heard out front. I have monitors in all the rooms we hang out in so I can just glance at them when needed. All my...

    Shed Interior Temp to Blue Iris Overlay!

    Just thought I'd share a little accomplishment I achieved with BI and Home Assistant! I recently put a small propane heater in my shed to keep it warm when working out there and to hopefully keep liquids stored out there from freezing. All assuming I don't burn through my 100lb tank too fast...

    Using A PoE Switch to Connect to NVR

    Update! I just added another camera to the POE switch. Steps were as follows: This is NVR4108-8P-4KS2 and all cameras are the IPC-T5241TM-AS model. Plug camera into POE switch (external one, not the NVR's built in one). In NVR go to Main Menu > Camera > Camera List Use Search Device button to...

    Using A PoE Switch to Connect to NVR

    Alright, maybe I confused something in my experimenting last night. Trying to add a fourth camera to the POE switch and it's giving me hell. When I hit initialize, I manually set an IP address and it said it successfully initialized. However, in the camera list it still shows the default IP...
