    Synology Surveillance Station cannot find camera in different subnet

    Well that's the location you would normally find the bridge mode setting. But if yours can't do it you will need to buy a separate Poe switch (unless you already have one) in order to put the cameras on the 192 network.

    NVR continually contacts many Dahua Websites

    I had to reset a camera today that was giving me some trouble. After the reset it suddenly started flooding my logs with block notices. I had forgotten to turn off auto update. So I turned that off but it was still flooding the logs. I had to dig through the settings to find another setting I...

    NVR continually contacts many Dahua Websites

    Many of the people that complain about their cameras and nvrs talking on the internet and phoning home etc are perfectly happy to use mobiles phones which do exactly the same thing.

    SMTP Relay server issues?

    Is it an internal IP address? Is traffic allowed between the two vlans?

    Cams and internet connectivity at driveway gate

    I assume you have a switch at either end of your fibre run. Are they managed switches? Can they handle vlans? You could configure two vlans on the switches. One for your cameras and bi network and the other for the gate controller. Then on the switch inside your house you would have a...

    Synology Surveillance Station cannot find camera in different subnet

    In many nvrs you have the option to bridge the Poe ports to the NVR wan port. Not sure if yours does but it probably can. What this will do is make the Poe ports act like a Poe switch on your 192 network and the 10 network will cease to exist. You will still need to manage the network...

    NVR continually contacts many Dahua Websites

    There's all sorts of things going outbound by nvrs and cameras. There'll be p2p stuff (even if turned off I reckon there's still a heartbeat of some sort), there'll be notification stuff, email, time server, checking for updates etc etc. Almost all of it would be pretty harmless, but you can't...

    My Dahua NVR5432 was hacked last week!

    That might be too large a leap to do in one hit. If you're buying ubiquiti kit why not look at their routers, they have a really good vpn feature called teleport, which i think is built off wireguard.

    Dahua is going bigger 1/1.8" sensor in lower lines: new WizColor series, 3449-PRO and 2449-PRO lines

    1/1.2" sensor that can also do IR would be nice. 4mp on 1/1.2" would be nicer.

    IPCT Major software update in works at IPCT

    Hah. Well the next revision (ipct 4.0 dark) is getting better. I don't think I'll use it though. My eyes disagree with it which is a failing of my eyes not necessarily the theme.

    We're starting to see more and more 4mp cameras with 1/1.8" sensors from other vendors too. It's like they're finally starting to move towards becoming the standard sensor.

    IPCT Major software update in works at IPCT

    Not sure if this is the dark theme you're referring to (UI.X Dark) but it's difficult to read certain text. And still has blue banners and other sections in white that just jump out at you. You also can't see thread titles.

    Run a single multi sensor camera with separate IP addresses on generic DVR/NVR

    Maybe. The only NVR and cameras guaranteed to work together are ones of the same brand and even then it might depend on the model. If the NVR supports onvif then it's likely that it will be able to connect to it, but it may only be able to pull video only. No alerts or etc.

    Camera recommendations for narrow corridors

    Just be aware that some cameras can't run at full resolution when in corridor mode. I have a HDW3549 on one side of my house and I tried it on corridor mode. I forget the specifics but it wouldn't let me run it at the full resolution. I had the drop it down. I just put it back to normal mode...

    HUGE RUMOR: Unifi Protect will support ONVIF cameras (like from HIK/Dahua)

    Like their cloud key's or something but for AI? Not sure why they would need the display panels like they've got in the render. Just because they can i guess.

    Reolink CX810 ~$60USD only? Good specs?

    good old ozbargain. Like the comments on that page say though, the CX410 would be better for night vision, being a 4mp camera with a 1/1.8" sensor. The current price for the CX410 direct from Reolink is AUD$119

    How do I stop my camera trying to access 192.168.252.2 ?

    Oh here's another interesting one for this camera. It's also trying to access 192.168.2.1 I know this because i have that address set up on my UCG as a honeypot. It seems to be doing it several times one after the other every 7 days, but only started doing it last week (and the camera has been...

    Reolink CX810 ~$60USD only? Good specs?

    It does have good specs on paper, but i would be concerned about what manual controls you have over things like exposure and gain etc. Buy one and report back your findings. :) EDIT: At AUD$140 i'm not inclined to test it out.

    How do I stop my camera trying to access 192.168.252.2 ?

    I've looked at seemingly everything and i can't find anything that it might be. I'm sure it's just one of those hard coded things that cam manufacturers love to do.

    How do I stop my camera trying to access 192.168.252.2 ?

    Makes sense. There seems to be a few people complaining about the way the UCG Ultra does its logging. There doesn't seem to be any way to turn the logging off on a trigger. I was considering just allowing that particular subnet. I will still have an issue with my Reolink poe floodlight camera...

    How do I stop my camera trying to access 192.168.252.2 ?

    It needs to be able to send out emails. Email, NTP and DNS are allowed out, nothing else is, so it needs to have the right gateway. The logs shouldn't be getting cluttered anyway because this is an internal IP address, but it's trying to connect to it via the internet hence the block and log.

    How do I stop my camera trying to access 192.168.252.2 ?

    Did you ever get a resolution to this? My 151DX is doing the exact same thing, flooding my logs with hits to 192.168.252.2 (it's on a 192.168.1.x network and the .252 subnet is non existent). The weird thing with mine is it's being blocked on an internet out rule my UCG Ultra.

    Run a single multi sensor camera with separate IP addresses on generic DVR/NVR

    If the camera outputs multiple channels they would likely still be using the same IP address, but different channels in the url. eg. rtsp:/192.168.1.111:554/media/video1 for channel 1 and rtsp:/192.168.1.111:554/media/video2 for channel 2 etc. However if the NVR expects a unique IP address for...
