I have a about 9 cameras covering several buildings and due to the distances involved about 200 metres from the main internet router I have about 8 Linksys WAG320N set to bridge mode. These routers act as wireless access points and have a USB port that you plug in a hard drive for recording...

Hello It's been a while since I played with my cameras and came on this forum but I had a couple of the Hikvisions fail and need to upgrade a little. I noticed the new generation of IPcams are 8 MP is this essential ? as I think mine are mostly 3MP. Since browser support ended I've been using...

Hello The last couple of cameras I bought had firmware 5.2.0 multilanguage and they work fine but now I notice they have V5.2.5 . Anyone know what changes have been made ? I'm recommending these cameras to a friend and I'll need to help him out with settings so I'm a little worried they made...
