Thank you very much for your prompt reply..

I am a senior citizen and want to setup a POE camera near the front of my lot. I want to suspend a cat ? cable 80' in the air, then 40' under the eve of my house, and then into my house to POE switch. I live in Alabama where it gets hot in the summer. Can anyone suggest what kind of ethernet...

Oh, Golly-Gee Mr. Looney2ns. Pressing the W:H and Adaptive did it. You made me a happy cam man. That magic button removed the two vertical black stripes. Goodness do you all know lots of great camera stuff. Thank you so much. Now maybe I will be quiet and just watch my street and not trouble you...

Thank you again gwminor48. Yes, that is a great view full page like that. I may use that at times. But I was hoping to eliminate the vertical black bars on each side of my live stream and keep the "settings," and other tabs visible. Do you know how to adjust the live stream screen to eliminate...

What a dummy I am...thank you kind sir. Never would I have known that. I have the cam mounted and streaming thanks to a number of smart camera guys who don't mind sharing their knowledge with elders. However now there two black bars on the side of the image taking up a lot of viewing area. Do...

Yes, gwminor48. I can open the camera in Pale Moon. I have been to "Settings," TCP/IP. And I changed the Statie for DHCP. Thinking that sooner or later the default IP would change. Left clicking on the IP address box gets no reaction. I am too hesitant to click on the "Refresh" button on the...

OK, have finally sorted out the password problem, the plug-in being defined as a malware. But now I need to change the default IP address of the camera. Double clicking on IP4 or IP6 on the IPConfigTool does not react giving option to change the IP address. Being an old dummy is tough. I know...

Thank you TonyR. That is exactly what I used to test the cable. And both tested in numerical sequence. However, I removed the camera from that ethernet cable, and plugged an 8' cable into the camera and poe switch, clicked "Refresh" and the camera shows up. I can't figure it. But I am such a...

I checked my Dahau poe ethernet cable with a cable tester. It is used when you cut a cat 5 cable and need to attach another header (connector). I plugged one end into one port on the tester, and one connector into the other side of the tester, and turned it on. The lights lit in sequence from...

Usually I just live view my camera via a browser (PaleMoon), or Amcrest proview that lets me see all 4 wifi cams at once. I read page 29 of the great notes, was overwhelmed probably because of my old age and lack of camera experience. Deleting your gateway...cutting off your internet...don't...

I am not sure if this is the place to post...someone please correct me or tell me how to start a new post. I need help again please. I finally have a Dahau cam, ordered from Andy. It is model IPC-HFW4830EP-S. I have it mounted, connected at camera with Cat5 ethernet cable goes into my house...

Not quite as dumb as I was. Thanks looney2ns. Will be quiet and give you guys a rest for a while.

OK, here is a dumb question. I notice that all of the POE cams seem to have two cables coming from the camera. One of course I know is for the ethernet cable. The other looks like some kind of push-button cable. This can't be some kind of power connection cable as the POE gets the power from the...

Wow! Thanks looney2ns, mat200, and gwminor48 for a lot of suggestions and reading plus a lot of info. I enjoy learning still so it seems I need to get at the above info and references you guys so kindly submitted. I see there is some kind of points or badges for help given. How does that work as...

Yes, my grandson pulled three Cat-5E cables up into my attic and then out through the soffit . One is near my carport. One is under my front porch and one is under my patio doors in the back yard. Don't know if I will ever have 3 POEs, but while I had a youngster's help I did a little extra on...

Thank you for your reply and suggestion drunk penguin. That is a interesting username and I bet there is a story behind it. You guys are all pros watching with Harley-Davidson's. And I do envy your knowledge you have and the good that you do for others. I need something like a Cushman Scooter...

Thank you for your kind welcome and replies. This camera will be for outside and viewing the street. And day time will be best, one side of the cul-de-sac isn't 40 ft from my carport. Scenic is perhaps a good description of what I would like. I live on a cul-de-sac and like to watch the people...

Hello, My first post here. I would like to try using a "Starter" POE camera for live streaming only. Could you please advise me of a brand and model number as a starter POE camera? I have a Netgear G5305P POE switch connected to my router. Sorry about not knowing how to get around on the site...
