Everyone, thanks for the help. I was able to get Transparent Bridge mode up after a few struggles. Windstream/Kinetic didn't orignally give me an email address which is required for the PPoE credentials. Once I got this from Windstream everything went smoothly!

First a little background, just recently purchased a new home and in the process of reinstalling everything. Previous home, I had Fiber to the Home, my new home I am forced to use a fixed wireless provider (Windstream). My old setup was working flawlessly using Open VPN on an Asus router. New...

Anyone had any recent lucked getting the Wzye Cam v3 or similar to work with BI? I'm using all Dahua cams outside and a couple of Amcrest IP2M-841's inside for monitoring the pets. Was hoping for something a little more discrete indoors. Wyze physically would look better but I've read lots of...

Thanks, I went ahead and ordered one this morning from Amazon. For $50 looks like the perfect option.

I have several Dahua camera outside my home and a couple indoors. I'm looking to add a Wifi based camera that can be moved around my home for keeping tabs on my dogs when away. For this reason, I'm not as concerned with video quality or night vision. Looking for something that will work with...

Got it...when I clicked it initally it opened the clips in full screen which wasn't what I was looking for. Once I opened it back up I was able to hit the book looking icon "more items" and it restored it back on the left side of my main window....Thanks for the help!

Can anyone tell me how to get my playback controls and video clips back on the left side of the screen? Not sure what changed but I logged in today and can see the live view but can't change the calendar or see any of my video clips that are usually on the left side of the screen.

Definitely....Monitored Alarm, 3 large indoor dogs (2 German Shepherds), and someone is almost always at home. I'm just kind of partial to my stuff and can't stand a thief!

Can't say I'm a firm believer in PC locks, at least not the ones I've seen made for laptops! Maybe something creative like a cable style bicycle lock. I'd just hate to lose the best chance at catching a thief should it ever occur. I'd thought about using Micro SD cards but was concerned about...

I'm currently running a 6 Dahua Cameras and recording to a dedicated BI PC in my home. I'm concerned about the possible theft of the BI PC if I were robbed and would like to somehow back up the video in real time. I have a Synology NAS on the same network but have read that its not recommended...

I have the same Asus router setup behind a AT&T router. Here is the how to that I followed U-verse for BUSINESS? : 2Wire 3600HGV bridge mode? or another AT&T supported VDSL modem?

So after much tinkering with the network, I have confirmed that the Asus Router WAN port has died but also found that you can turn one of the LAN ports into a failover WAN. Got everything reconfigured and back going as it should be. Guess I'll buy another router at some point so that I can...

Yes, AT&T Uverse is the provider. I have to setup DMZ Mode and point it at the Asus router to make it work. Considering switching to Comcast to make life easier!

Thanks everyone. Setting up the Asus behind the AT&T modem was PIA the first time and only complicates the configuration. Not looking forward to it again but looks like I'm picking up a new router this weekend.

Question for the network guru's. My Asus RT-AC1900P appears to have died. It was setup behind an AT&T Modem so that I could use the VPN functionality of the RT-AC1900P. I also have a Synology DS218+ that has a built-in VPN Server. Part of the setup on the Synology requires that I forward a...

Thanks for the advise, I opened up 81 and all seems to be good now.

Not sure what happened but suddenly I couldn't access the BI Web server from anything but the host computer. I added an exception for Port 81 in Windows Defender and it now works. Is this safe or should I accomplish this some other way?

I had thought about going this route but wasn't sure if they could cut such a small circle. Was going to check on Monday with a local place. Thanks, for the search tip! I had tried searching ebay but could find anything, looks like I wasn't searching for the write item!

I have a IPC-HDW5231R-Z that has been damaged. The glass was impacted and shattered in the housing. Everything still works but isn't waterproof. I have since removed the camera and cleaned out the old glass. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement glass, best I can tell it measures...

I feel like a big dummy now...that was it, I had tried retyping the PW several times but hadn't noticed the ID field was blank. Thanks for the help!

It appears my OpenVPN app on my iPhone and Ipad have both updated in the past 2 weeks. It still has my profile saved but it fails to connect. I tried deleting it and adding it back but still no luck. Anyone been through this recently?

I have personally built 2 systems in the past year, one with a Dahua NVR and the other with BI. I dislike the interface on the NVR and really prefer BI when reviewing the recordings. Just my personal preference but if I ever need another build it will be with BI.

It could be an issue of natural light but it seems to take a long time once I turn the light on in my home office before it swaps back to color. I've played around with the settings but really haven't been able to improve it.

Yes, both were purchased from Andy at the same time and contain the same firmware. 2.460.0000.14.R, Build Date: 2017-07-20

I have a couple of the IPC-HDBW4231F-AS Wedge Dome's inside my home. On is really slow to change back from night mode to color. Both cameras are setup the same, any recommendations on what settings I need to adjust to keep the in day mode longer and get it to swap back to color quicker once...

Thanks, I thought it would probably work but wasn't 100% positive. Working on my shopping list for these next 4 cameras which will all be mounted outdoors.

I need to install a couple of cameras that will be approximately 400' from the NVR. I already plan on purchasing the ePOE Cameras but my NVR isn't ePOE compliant. Do I need do to do anything else or should this work? I plan to use the DH-IPC-HFW5231E-Z5E cameras.

Can anyone tell me the preferred way to setup the TM-AC1900 behind my U-verse Gateway? Currently I have the Uverse Router (192.168.1.254) --> Asus Router (192.168.29.1) -->POE Switch. Should I change the Asus router to the 192.168.1.x? Everything works currently but wanted to ensure I am...

I just purchased a T-mobile branded Asus AC1900 router to replace my ~10 year old router and setup a VPN. As I understand it this is the same unit as the Asus just re-branded, should I flash the firmware to standard Asus or Merlin before I even start? My end goal is to have a secure network...

Planning to purchase a new router today that is compatible for VPN use. It would appear the preferred router here is the Asus units, is the Asus RT-AC68U that much better than the Asus RT-AC66U_B1? Should I be looking at something else?
