    LONG range wireless camera setup

    Hmm I don't think that would be a good fit for you. That's analog equipment, the picture quality will be pretty terrible with lots of interference, also you will not be able to hook it up to a IP camera. I believe that sort of equipment is used for FPV flying remote control planes/drones etc...

    LONG range wireless camera setup

    No you would only need 2. Directional means the antenna transmits and receives only in the direction it is aimed, compared to omnidirectional which has 360 coverage. The Ubiquiti PowerBeam's @looney2ns mentioned look very nice too, and seem to do the exact same thing.

    I would like .... PTZ, (auto)tracking ...

    Wow I didn't even know such a thing existed. It looks very much like a modified Huisun Mini PTZ v1. A few things that might be worthy of noting The Dahua cameras will be much better quality all round plus 25x zoom compared to 4x The 4G camera you have selected cannot be plugged into a LAN or...

    LONG range wireless camera setup

    A couple of these (TP-Link CPE510) should be capable for bridging that distance wirelessly: https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-300Mbps-dual-polarized-directional-CPE510/dp/B00N2RO63U/ Claims up to 15km point to point range in the specs! …I have no idea how realistic that is, but 1/2 mile sounds...

    IP Camera as a Camera Trap

    Very cool! I imagine with plants etc. you'd get a lot of motion-detection false-positives? Does your cellular sim have a fixed public IP? or are you using a VPN to allow incoming connections?

    Using VPN to access cameras behind carrier grade NAT (3G/4G)

    Yeah I guess the cloud service is a decent option for remote viewing. In my scenario I'd like full access to each devices' web interface though. I'm about to bite the bullet on a fixed IP sim contract, in case anyone is interested some comparative cost differences are: Fixed IP SIM with 10GB...

    Using VPN to access cameras behind carrier grade NAT (3G/4G)

    Dynamic DNS is unfortunately no use here as it still requires a public IP the entire problem is mobile carriers assign a private IP.

    Using VPN to access cameras behind carrier grade NAT (3G/4G)

    Thanks, I've setup Hikvision's EZVIZ service on the NVR and it does work without needing to port forward (this is using a home broadband connection not tested using the 4G router yet). Seems a little flaky though and I can't get it to work at all when using cellular network to view (seems to be...

    Yes that would be nice but unfortunately don't have line of sight (big hills & woods in the way).

    Using VPN to access cameras behind carrier grade NAT (3G/4G)

    Yes that's certainly the most important thing. Maybe do some quick playbacks on the NVR too, and update settings etc.

    Hikvision DS-7108N - Accessing cameras directly when connected to NVR POE

    I should have read through the sticky at the top of this sub-forum more carefully, there's lot's of good info on this problem in there. This solution from Thedy Bratu sounds very good :

    Hikvision DS-7108N - Accessing cameras directly when connected to NVR POE

    OK, so connecting a computer directly to an NVR POE port (and changing the computer IP to the NVR's POE range) works just fine (NVR web interface is not slow/unresponsive). Ideally I would like to be able to connect to each camera without having to physically plug in, but it seems to be the...

    Hikvision DS-7108N - Accessing cameras directly when connected to NVR POE

    I've got a Hikvision DS-7108N-SN/P (firmware V3.0.13) NVR and am having trouble figuring out a way to connect to the cameras directly when they are plugged into the NVR's POE ports. This NVR doesn't appear to have 'Virtual Host' support, and also doesn't have Telnet enabled so I can't enable IP...

    Using VPN to access cameras behind carrier grade NAT (3G/4G)

    Thanks Fastb some great reading there. Actually the VPN data usage doesn't sound too bad if gmaster1's estimates of between 100-450MB/mo are correct, data prices aren't too bad if I go with a regular sim. I'm feeling like I might just opt for the fixed IP sim and save myself some headache though!

    Using VPN to access cameras behind carrier grade NAT (3G/4G)

    I want to setup some cameras in a remote location and use a 4G router so I can remotely access them. The problem is mobile networks don't issue public IP addresses (they use NAT) so incoming connections are a problem. I see the simplest option is to purchase a fixed-ip sim from a specialist...

    Another v2 Bites The Dust

    Update I received the replacement PCB, just changed it now and all is working again :) The new PCB has a different layout to the old and has a micro SD card reader built in (old one had separate board connected via ribbon cable). However after a bit of cable management everything fit ok...

    Another v2 Bites The Dust

    It's the first camera I ever bought. Wish I'd known enough to get a more trusted brand, but like I say it's only for a fun nature cam (looking at bird table etc.). I'm thinking of getting a Dahua SD22204T-GN mini PTZ dome to replace it (this one). Would it be a good replacement for this Huisun...

    Another v2 Bites The Dust

    Had the a mini PTZ v2 running fine outside for about 9months (non-essential nature cam). Recently just suddenly stopped working. It's a POE version but I wasn't using POE to power it. Doesn't do startup dance when powered on Cannot be pinged Not showing in SADP Tried both POE and direct 12v...

    Huisun Mini PTZ request JPEG snapshot over HTTP

    Does anyone know the correct URL for getting a snapshot from this camera? with a hikvision cam I believe this should work: http://<user>:<password>@<camera ip>:<port>/PSIA/Streaming/channels/1/picture Having no luck with my huisun mini PTZ v2 however :(

    remotely view questions for v2 10x

    I've been using free Dynamic DNS from noip.com 1] enable DDNS on router 2] forward all required ports (defaults are 8000, 554 & 80) 3] use DDNS hostname in IVMS etc. IVMS doesn't work with sub-stream on these Huisuns so that can cause problems on slower connections. I've been using tinyCam on...

    POE Plug to avoid using with Huisun PTZ cams!

    on a v2 Mini PTZ I've been using this TP-Link injector/splitter set with no problems so far: https://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-LINK-TL-POE200-Power-Ethernet-Adapter/dp/B0038X3RVA/ I had to split to get 12v for a (passthrough) microphone anyway. With the v2 POE boards being of questionable...

    Scheduled PTZ Movement For Timelapse

    I have a Huisun v2 Mini PTZ. I'm thinking it would be nice to setup a timelapse once it's setup in it's permanent spot. Say 1 image a day for a year. Using the Timed Snapshot feature in the cameras software I can set the camera to take a snapshot once a day easily enough, but obviously it's not...
