    In the process of selling my house and I was trying to change the passwords on my ip cameras to something I could give the buyers. Even though I changed the PW on the IPC-HDW2231R-ZS, every time I cycled the power I ran into problems. I tried to do a factory reset from one of the config programs...

    Asus DDNS?

    Help please. I'm in over my head here. I set up an Asus router and open vpn a couple years ago. I'm fairly certain I registered a domain name at the time. Recently I had to do a factory reset on my router. I have Open VPN back up and running, but I have not done anything with DDNS. If I...

    Good wifi camera for front porch table?

    Looking for a decent camera to set on a front porch table. It needs to be wifi and onvif, but I have power available. I think I'll be okay with an indoor camera, and it needs to be black. I'm using a foscam R2C now, but I'm not happy with the quality. Any recommendations? Thanks

    I screwed up my main screen layout

    I'm not sure what I did, but I don't think I'm the only one to do this because I found another thread with no resolution posted. I can see my cameras or clips, but I can no longer see them both on my main page. I don't know what I clicked on to make this happen, but I did. Any idea how to fix it...

    Accidentally upgraded to a version that is now evaluation?

    Apparently I upgraded to version I have to pay for. All my camera screens now show Blue Iris Evaluation Version. Is there any way to go back without paying for an upgrade?

    Open VPN problems?

    I had openvpn working with my Asus RT68U and Iphone XS about a year ago. Long story short, I swapped to a google wifi setup and quit using openvpn. I'm now back to my Asus router, but cannot get openvpn to work. I tried adding a new client profile file to my iphone. My router shows it's...

    My camera is fried!

    Any idea what could have gone wrong here? It’s a refurb from LaView / Hikvision. I used it to test a couple times, but I think it’s the first time I left it powered overnight. It seemed very warm. Thanks

    Camera recommendation for this spot?

    I want to keep an eye on my truck. A big bonus would be being able to see my mailbox 60’ away as well. Camera would be mounted to the plywood soffit and wires run into the attic. There is some ambient light from a streetlight about 140’ from this point on the house. The camera sort of needs to...

    I’m looking for something relatively inexpensive to put inside my attached 2 car garage. It’s approx 22’ x 22’. I’ll probably mount the camera on the ceiling in a corner. I would prefer to go a little cheap on this camera, and save my money for more expensive exterior cameras. It needs to be...

    Blue Iris download from blueiris.com?

    I noticed the BI site has an option to download the software and an option to purchase. I assume the download will not run without purchasing a key? I tried downloading and got an error (the application was unable to start correctly (0x0000007b). Now I'm afraid that if I purchase the software, I...
