No, make sure that uPnP is turned OFF on your router, and you do not need to port forward when using HikConnect.

I had this issue with a brand new NVR out of the box... I ended up having to re-flash the firmware on it, then the cloud stuff started working properly.. Also always double check that you are using 8.8.8.8 and 4.2.2.2 as the DNS entries in the config... using your local ISPs DNS servers are a...

Nelly's Security has their new GoSwift 4k cameras, that are only $99/ea... they produced a video comparing them against Dahua and Hikvision... pretty impressive results.

So I have the Nelly's OEM version of the 4k Hikvision Turrets. My NVR is providing the PoE to the cameras, so they are on their own virtual subnet.. Is there really any reason to upgrade the firmware? I'm all about being proactive, but I'm wondering if this is a case of if it ain't broke...

See the above link.. I had the same problem. and it turned out the transformer didn't have enough power.. Changed out the transformer to a 24v 40va and instantaneous stability, no humming.. Also DON'T use the resistor on a mechanical door chime! 10va isn't enough power to drive the doorbell...

I upgraded the transformer only to 24v... my chime is still 16v, and is running beautifully. I bought the transformer from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000K2EC7K/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I opted to go with the more expensive brand name (Honeywell) than the...

I had this exact same problem with a Hikvision OEM (Nellys Security branded) WiFi doorbell. I ended up going thru 3 different mechanical chimes as well as 2 16v power supplies.. still same buzzing humming problem... Said screw it, upgraded to a 24v doorbell chime, and the problem instantly went...

I'm going to be traveling extensively for a month or so, and want to be able to monitor/review my cameras remotely. I have an 8 Port EyeSurv NVR. I know I've read users being cautioned to not expose port 80 to the web for obvious reasons. Do you have any suggestions how I should go about...

If you just need a basic no frills NVR... and dont care to record only on motion, (ie record 24x7 instead) then get the EyeSurv for $99 from NellysSecurity.com

Your settings are identical to mine...

First off, I wouldn't put all of your eggs in one basket with that few of systems, I'd use a MINIMUM of 4 systems to handle 100 cameras... next, archive to a NAS for longer storage, or use the cloud if your bandwidth permits. I would strongly recommend you use HP Procurve or Cisco switches...

do it all thru the NVR GUI and be done with it.

the clear definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results... based upon the number of times you've posted the exact same problem and the number of times you've been told that its YOUR setup, and still expecting us to solve the problem for you...

XProtect does take a rather long time to install, even on a fresh i7 machine with a virgin copy of Win7 Pro, mine took the better part of 15 minutes to install. Run task manager and see if your CPU shows activity, during the install mine stalled out for a long long period of time before it...

Why would you accuse ken of something so stupid? First off, its YOUR network problem, you chose to go on the cheap and use WiFi when its a KNOWN issue that cheap WiFi equipment and cameras (yes the kind YOU are using Sir,) don't work reliably. Instead of accusing Ken of something, try looking...

can you see the camera from SADP?

be careful about forwarding the http port, there is really no reason if you are running IVMs4500

Re: Camera dropping out when used with Blue Iris but works when viewed through Foscam There is one thing you guys are overlooking here gentlemen... You are using WiFi! WiFi is *NOT* let me repeat *NOT* inherently stable. You are using radios that constantly fluxuate signal strength based upon...

did you do a full power down of everything? cameras too.. something has a stale cache

try changing you DNS server settings to googles, 8.8.8.8 as primary and 4.2.2.2 as secondary. See if that works.

Once again, Fenderman, you are THE MAN! Thx so much!

Check with your local jurisdiction, call the NON emergency number of your local highway patrol / state troopers and just ask a "what if" question...

Can you see the cameras on the network using HikTools SADP?

you need to open the media port on your router, forward it to the NVR and it will work great. But you need to use the iVMS 4500 software client. Not IP Cam Viewer

never trust your security system to a set of batteries! One bad cell, and your house gets robbed..

FOScams are crap.... NEVER do WiFi cameras, Stick with Hikvision or Dahua, 2MP minimum, use a POE switch, and be done with it, reliable, safe, and secure.

is there a change log posted somewhere that actually documents "powerful new features added" etc? that would help me decide if I want to risk another upgrade.

I had the same CPU, and couldn't get it to support 5 1080p Hikvision Cameras at 20fps... so good luck if you can. I ended up going with an NVR for 24x7 backup and using BI for motion events,

export your BI registry keys first, then reimport after the Win10 upgrade.
