    it can be depending on your work's IT administrator's policies. it sound like they are blocking ports on the wifi.

    im similar. intel driver version 20.19.15.4835 on an i7-4770k but only about 240 MP/s. no issue with any of the 4.8.4.x versions of BI (currently on 4.8.4.7). I have intel video accel defaulted on for everything in BI and using an nvidia card for my display. i've never played with the quick...

    TPLINK Router. ...TPLINNK IP cam TL-SC3171G - CONNECTIVITY

    basically anyone can log into these cameras once you give them access to the internet. assume anyone can view your camera once you have the port forwarded. granted they have to find your ip first, but someone is always scanning ips looking for something like this. TP-Link IP Camera Hardcoded...

    TPLINK Router. ...TPLINNK IP cam TL-SC3171G - CONNECTIVITY

    that's exactly what you need to setup, fill out the boxes with your account info and enable the option with the checkbox and you should be able to access through your noip address. I used noip ages ago, i remember something about having to renew my account every month or two with the free...

    TPLINK Router. ...TPLINNK IP cam TL-SC3171G - CONNECTIVITY

    there should be a ddns option in the router that will let you use a address rather than an ip. then you router will update that address every time your ip changes.

    Suggest a router that has a VPN

    if you want to take a big dive, try running pfsense. a bit of a learning curve but once you get it consumer routers will seem limited. i running on one of these with a used 4 port intel nic from ebay, doesn't cost much more than a good consumer router.

    Embedded Solution

    i didn't know that, i though quick sync was standard if intel video was incorporated in the chip. it appears the j4205 does though, weird.

    Embedded Solution

    I'm looking at adding a nas onto my system with either zfs or refs. I've been looking at embedded solutions and impressed with some of the latest offerings. Given the embedded processor's capability I'm contemplating running windows server instead of freenas and moving my blueiris over to that...

    Door Sensors with BI

    i use a raspberry pi to monitor a few door and gate sensors which then in turns triggers BI over my network. it could just as easily be done with an arduino though. there are a couple different ways you could trigger BI though.

    blurry camera in cold

    just a follow up, i picked up a ipc-hdbw4431r-as and it is performing much better. its only been down to about -20C so far, but its far shaper than my old camera. it has a rating of -40C so it should do better.

    blurry camera in cold

    i like to refer to them as urban deer. for the most part they wait to cross the road, and aren't very skittish unlike their country counterpart!

    blurry camera in cold

    Same as the hiks for operating temperature but they perform well. Guess it's somewhat model dependant.

    blurry camera in cold

    i have a dahua IPC_HFW3200S at my front door that gets extremely blurry in the cold (sample attached). some sort of thermal contraction issue messing havoc with the sensor in the cold i assume. i also have 4 hiks outside of varying models (one dome, two small swann bullets and a big hik...

    Intel Hardware Acceleration

    as an aside, i recently tried hardware acceleration on my 4770k again and its working great. i dont use my intel video display (i use a gtx760) and when it first came out trying to use the intel gpu acceleration for blueiris but use my gtx for my display wouldn't work. I was pleasantly...

    Outdoor mounting - need flex conduit to cover cat6 cable?

    you would probably be fine doing that. if you do it, make sure you silicon up the whole into your attic around the wire and secondly watch where dripping on the cable goes (don't want dew/rain/etc on the wire going right into the camera). runing something like ubiquit tough cable would minize...

    not that it matters now, the tmobile router is a good deal! but i run mine on a mobile process so its not bad (intel i7 u something). they are also doing arm builds now which have very low power consumption. they will sell hardware too all preloaded, one of which is an arm option. Hardware...

    WS-POE-8-ENC Multi Port PoE Injector ????

    i have one of those in operation as well, works fine. passive just means its not going to detect if the device you plug is is non poe. the link you posted also doesn't come with a power supply, which is why its cheaper, but if you already have one, need to buy another one!

    WS-POE-8-ENC Multi Port PoE Injector ????

    just don't plug a non poe device into the passive injector.
