    Really Bad Car Accident Caught On Camera

    With that extra information yes she should have known, but Getting people to realise they have a problem and getting people to get treatment are very different you had a good sense to seek help for yourself, I had a nervous breakdown and saw a counsellor which got me through after a very bad...

    Really Bad Car Accident Caught On Camera

    Seeing that made my blood run cold, not only for the innocent deaths but that the women obviously didnt get the mental health care she needed, and taking a urban missile away from here would have been my first thought (used to do counselling many years back, did psychology at uni over here in...

    and THIS is why you do NOT let your Cameras on the internet.

    Better keep you routers off the net too they have loads of vulnerabilities and Intel/AMD recently had another issue as older AMD and Intel chips are vulnerable to yet another Spectre-based speculative-execution attack that exposes secrets within kernel memory despite defences already in place...

    Accessing NVR via DMSS on WiFi overloading internet connection

    A lot depend son how much bandwidth you are using, and if your router can handle it. I dont know your equipment as I'm in the UK. There should be no reason for your issues unless the router is struggling with how many devices you have connected, can you see CPU usage and memory usage in the GUI?

    EE blocks incoming connections

    I think its the EE 4G router they are know to have isses with some services in the UK like Sky All 4G routers and 4G and 5G phones have a IP address from a pool, most but not all use CGNAT as you say which can cause issues, people have found the TP link AC1200 4G LTE works better than EE's own...

    EE blocks incoming connections

    I'm with EE in the UK and use the DMSS app for my Dahua kit and have no issue with incoming connections from my NVR when the cameras are triggered. Maybe its something else, if EE blocked incoming connections you woundnt be able to get things like facetime calls of mobile email etc and...

    Camera with obvious "You are being recorded" mechanism

    The sS3 variant I have seems to work fine, and at night which is when I have the alarm with the the siren the blue and red light is very bright and neighbours can see that its a warning too it seems very effective, the white light is also warm and gives great images in my humble opinion, I guess...

    The NVR was a new lite version listed by Dahua with a lovely orange star it’s just no good. The cameras are what his supplier had and they are massive in the uk. He tried to return it all but they refused he is being very fair. He went above and beyond accommodating shelving etc too for my...

    Help newb here with a messed install looking for help.

    Oh I’m complaining and they are eating the price. He was given the NVR by a company called Oprema. Which is where some of the stock comes from in the uk. He assumed they had paired the package as that’s how its generally seems to be done in the uk. He was wrong and is putting his hand in his...

    Help newb here with a messed install looking for help.

    To be honest I’m quite happy with the image quality on those cameras for their positioning and to get my money back would mean me going to court it will become very complicated and could easily cost me more than the install. So they’re installed now they give good night vision as far as I’m...
