Thank you for the suggestions, Pozello. The good news is it's fixed. Bad news is that I feel like an idiot. I added a new Netgear Orbi router to my network recently and didn't think that could possibly be the issue. It was. I bypassed the router and plugged the switch straight into the AT&T...

Tonight I pulled the camera down to get a closer look at what is happening. It was initially flashing green. I reset it, and now it's a solid green. When I try to re-add the camera to the network, IDMSS says it's not discoverable. Switch is showing data & power. I tried another port on the...

I'm just going to pull the camera down and connect it directly to the switch and see if that fixes it. Easier than messing around in the attic to diagnose.

Recently had a small house fire that did a surprising amount of damage. Fire department ripped a giant hole in the ceiling to save the house, and snipped the Ethernet cable to my camera. I installed a joiner after testing both ends... I don't believe the connectors are the issue. But now I have...

Yeah, I just checked the picture now and it’s complete crap. I’m going to look into lighting solutions.

Ok, I had the 3D NR enabled and set to medium. I turned it off and the problem seems to have resolved itself.

Fantastic... thanks for steering me in the right direction re: noise reduction. I am in the territory of wants. I am budgeting 100 megabits of my network to camera bandwidth, and willing to go higher... because more information is what I'm after. I wouldn't say "hard". I can add more light...

I had my first real need for my camera today, and I was caught off guard by the camera not being set up as well as it could have. I'm using the IPC-HDBW81230EP-ZE 12mp camera, which should be capable of some seriously fantastically detailed imagery. Here's an example of the problem: Can...

I have the PAL version of the IPC-HDBW81230E-ZE and I'm looking for the correct firmware update for it. I'm running on build 2017-12-15 currently. If I install the firmware above, do I have any risk of bricking my camera? And if this is the NTSC version, might that mean it changes mine from...

About a year ago, I attempted to contact the local Oakland Police. I had a dashcam video of a late model BMW X6 flying down the freeway missing a front wheel, with sparks shooting out of the wheel well from the rotor dragging on the ground. The entire left fender was peeled back. It just kind...

Nobody is "bad mouthing" anybody. Police exist to protect and serve the people, not to protect and serve themselves. Holding people with a license to kill accountable is a worthwhile effort. If they aren't doing anything wrong, they (and you) have nothing to worry about... or so their saying...

This would apply only if he were law enforcement. Since he's not, it doesn't matter if the equipment is calibrated or not, because it's not being used for legal purposes. Anecdotal evidence / circumstantial evidence is still evidence, however. And even if it were calibrated to the same...

Thanks for that summary, Go3Team. Very cool.
