    Noob IPCAM Installer Needs Help!

    I dont understand why the 10.xxx addresses are being used and 192.xxx etc ..there should only be 1 subnet ... 10. Is a class A subnet and you do not need that ..get everything back to 192.xxx and make sure your network is properly configured. This honestly just sounds like a messed up network...

    FTP Uploads

    I've got my camera connecting fine to my FTP share in the house - just set it up today. Also set up email to email snapshots to SMTP outside the house as well as having the onboard SD card there. but my question is really around exactly how the FTP works in terms of images being sent to it...

    DS-2CD2142FWD-IWS - 5.4.4FW - factory resets every few days!

    I installed this last year and its been fine until recently ... at first i just thought its one of those things but its now done it 3 times ... By default its running wirelessly (and has been fine) but to get it after it does this i need to plug in a wire and then restore my saved config file...

    Camera Lens Reference Diagram

    Easy to say ... much harder to do without leaving a gaping hole in the wall cladding and honestly there is nowhere else to put it as frontage below cladding is almost entirely glass AND I still have the width issue ...

    Camera Lens Reference Diagram

    I just installed a 4mm hik camera thinking it would do my entire front drive but finding it only covers about 50% of its width due to it being about 6m long and maybe 15m wide ... don't want to install a 2nd but would a 2mm lens capture more of that width , if so any idea how much?

    All Hikvision Cameras offline after Router replacement

    Can you not plug in your old router , even if not attached to your isp to get them back , then work out the confit that you need to change . It would help to see old and new router ip info. It may also help to just wire the camera direct to your pc if you can and ensure the IP address of the pc...

    More Than 3 Snapshots in Email?

    on previous cameras I was able to set the number of snapshots that got mailed out when an event was detected. With this I get only 3 and they are 2 secs apart. I'm finding this isn't good enough to make sure I capture facial features etc as I flip through my email ... anyone know of any way to...

    Viewing recordings direct from NAS

    They are stored as MP4 - VLC will play them ... However the filing system is a bot odd with all sorts of Data Directories stored... I will look and see if anything makes any sense in terms of date/time -

    Power supply connector size

    errr i did say 'Yes these things can always be done technically but the particular situation that people find themselves in mean it may not be a viable option' - people may not have the funds to do what you suggest .... By all means suggest alternatives but it doesnt mean it should be done that...

    HikVision 5.3.8 / FTP / Netgear ReadyShare USB

    Power supply connector size

    Sometimes thats just not an option even though you have said it to me before as well. Yes these things can always be done technically but the particular situation that people find themselves in mean it may not be a viable option. Don't have an easy route or don't want to ruin their...

    Best Wireless IP Turret Camera

    200m of Wifi? Yeah I somehow doubt it as well.....my 2142 cant see the wifi at the middle of the house and i had ot put a sperate access point in closer to it at the front... So IP67 and 68 I thought were to do with submerging the things in water - would continuous rain be the same? Possibly i...

    Best Wireless IP Turret Camera

    Good feedback folks .. My budget would be about $200 per camera - My front is covered with the HIK 2142 mentioned above Ryan and its ok BUT you cant use IR due to Dome as its picking up glare off the low lumens street lighting - so its somewhat restricted as discussed. I was considering...

    Best Wireless IP Turret Camera

    sure... Facial recognition meaning it recognises people and identifies them or its just good enough to make faces out well? Its the latter. rear of the house is pitch black with no lighting other than some LED floodlight with low lumens which is only on back door. So would want something to...

    Best Wireless IP Turret Camera

    Ive been running wireless camera's - Dlink DCS-2120 for just checking my front door - for years and they worked pretty flawlessly but are clearly not as good as todays modern cameras so forgive me if i disagree with you here as i have found in practice they work fine for my needs. The HikVision...
