    [SOLVED] Hikvision NVR Won't Recognize Camera Using Ubiquiti Nanostations

    They should be able to negotiate between then who is doing what with regards to power but not necessarily in a way that does what you want.

    old SmartPSS (v2.003) cannot connect to Dahua NVR starting today, but SmartPSS lite can.

    I find reviewing video to be clunky and not as easy to zero in on specific times as in the non lite version. That's my only real issue with it. Beyond that it's fine.

    Which would be fine if it actually worked properly.

    old SmartPSS (v2.003) cannot connect to Dahua NVR starting today, but SmartPSS lite can.

    Can someone show me the law that says dahua must provide you with any software at all, let alone specific software products to access your nvr?

    Suggestions for a PoE switch for home network and surveillance systems?

    If you're planning to VPN in you're gonna need a router that supports vlans otherwise it can get you to the switch but I don't think it's gonna get you into the vlan.

    If they are cutting it off they may also phase it out rather than cut everyone off at once?

    old SmartPSS (v2.003) cannot connect to Dahua NVR starting today, but SmartPSS lite can.

    They seem pretty keen on us not using SmartPSS so if you're using it with a p2p account i would say it's entirely plausible that they have crippled it. SmartPSS Lite is rubbish. In particular when reviewing captures, which is really the entire point of using such software, so to not be able to...

    Suggestions for a PoE switch for home network and surveillance systems?

    I have one of these. It's brilliant. VPN access via teleport is zero config and just works. Amazingly cheap for what it can do. If the router doesn't support vlan, how will it manage the different IP addressing?

    Annke Firmware to Hikvision Firmware: HOW TO

    That's a pretty shit experience in my opinion. I told them that changing the day/night switch to auto removes the option to adjust the gain setting (but still allows to adjust exposure). I also asked them if there was a firmware that allowed setting a range for exposure. They told me there was...

    Cameras trying to connect to old NVR address

    Mainly because apart from the log entries clogging up my logs both cameras are working perfectly fine. Fucking cameras. They're like printers. Been around for literally decades and they still can't get them to work properly.

    Correct sequence to enable bridge mode on Dahue NVR to enable use with Unifi Protect?

    The answer is vlans. This guide might not be exactly what you need, but it will give you a nudge in the right direction. https://lazyadmin.nl/home-network/unifi-vlan-configuration/

    Cameras trying to connect to old NVR address

    I have two nvrs and until earlier today their IP addresses were 192.168.1.6 and 192.168.1.108. They are now 192.168.60.6 and 192.168.60.108. All cameras have also been changed over to the .60 network and they're all showing on both nvrs and working fine. However two of them are still trying to...

    Correct sequence to enable bridge mode on Dahue NVR to enable use with Unifi Protect?

    I've never used p2p on a camera. Only via the NVR. The cameras can get their time sync from the NVR. And yes. Email notifications direct from the camera wouldn't work.

    Correct sequence to enable bridge mode on Dahue NVR to enable use with Unifi Protect?

    On my uniarch NVR the cameras plugged into the Poe ports could not reach the internet. I'm certain of it but I no longer use the Poe ports on that NVR at all so I can't confirm it. On my dahua nvr I have only ever used the Poe ports in bridge mode so I couldn't say how they function.

    Just be aware that adding your cameras via bridge mode will expose them to the internet unless you have got them blocked by other means.

    Correct sequence to enable bridge mode on Dahue NVR to enable use with Unifi Protect?

    The method you have suggested is exactly how you need to do it. Change the IP addresses on all of the cameras and then set the nvr switch to bridge mode. I don't have unifi protect but I have the exact same dahua nvr as you and I have it set in bridge mode just like you are wanting to do and my...

    LPR camera mount suggestion

    LPR camera mount suggestion

    Look where the next house along is. Then draw a line from there to your driveway and assume they build up to the boundary. That's going to leave you fuck all view for a camera. And that's just the wall. There'll be a roof on top of that too at the exact same height as your camera but sticking...

    It's in a shitty grandstream camera I have. It wasn't hidden. It was just in the network settings like you might find for email or something in any other camera.
