    ZEROTIER & WI/FI

    I have setup Zerotier to view BI remotely, works great for that, however, now I cannot view on my home wi/fi. Is there a setting in Zerotier or BI I'm missing?

    Dahua HFW3549, No Clips

    I was originally referring to the clips in BI. It was showing clips that were created for the time (8hr) rule. I changed that at your suggestion to 1hr. I restarted BI and now it it showing new clips. I'm a little confused as to why, but thanks for your help.

    Noob here. Is Reolink really this bad or am I stupid?

    I wouldn't say that Reolink cameras are that bad, I don't know of any $60 camera that is capable of your expectations.

    Daisy Chain Switches?

    I completed the project yesterday. Everything works well. I used a simple 8 port POE unmanaged switch (B) and I did use CAT6 solid copper outdoor cable, although it is under a warehouse. Thanks for the responses.

    Daisy Chain Switches?

    I have a Ubiquiti Bridge connecting two buildings approx '2000 feet part. The building (not housing the BI server) has a switch (A) with multiple cameras all within close proximity to each other. I would like to add a couple of more cameras over '300+ feet from that switch. Can I add a POE...

    Solar powered outdoor wifi camera

    Yes, wired cameras are definitely more reliable, but there are many situations where it isn't practical and/or possible to do a 1k install for 1 camera. I love to test cameras out, especially cheap wireless cameras, when I find them on sale. The biggest problem I have found with Battery / Solar...

    BI Not Recording (on motion)

    wow, nothing is working! Not sure what to do at this point. Maybe uninstall BI and start from scratch? I have used BI for many years and never had such a major issue.

    ok, turned timelapse off. Is the codec setting in the camera's software settings or Blue Iris settings.

    BI Not Recording (on motion)

    I have been using BI4 with no issues until recently I noticed it was no longer recording clips. I have 12 cameras (different brands). I went in BI and checked everything and it seems like my setting have not changed. I "tweaked" the settings (lowered res on several cameras) and upgraded to BI5...

    Comparable Camera to the IPCT-HDW5231RE-I

    I bought the IPCT-HDW5231RE-I camera last year and really like the quality wide picture it gives. It has a nice wide view and does great in low light. Now it isn't available. What would be comparable to this camera?

    How Does Remote Viewing Work With Dlink?

    I used LogMeIn. I wasn't happy because my wife was the main person that needed to view the cameras live ( farm animals) and she needed something simple like the BlueIris App. Also, when I would log in and exit it would not allow me to log in again until I restarted the computer. Never figured...

    How Does Remote Viewing Work With Dlink?

    I have 5 Dahua cameras and 1 Ipcamtalk camera on my BlueIris software. Unfortunately I have satellite internet and cannot easily remotely view my cameras. Long story short, A friend suggested I try a Dlink camera. It was extremely easy to setup with the wps button and I can view it remotely. I...

    Network from Barn to House

    I have multiple cameras in my barn that are connected to a BI computer. We lived in the barn loft while building our house, so everything is setup and working fine in the barn. I wanted to send that LAN over to the house so I bought 2 Ubiquiti M2 and a Ubiquiti AP. The first M2 is setup on the...

    Mike & EMPIRETECANDY, When I got home yesterday evening I saw the camera's image looked great at night again, but when I got up today I saw it was back to green.
