    Caught this big boy on my front camera yesterday morning at 4:30 am. I think he was going after bugs near the porch light.

    Netgear router as access point has marginal bandwidth

    I've got AT&T fiber to my house which gives me approximately 500mb up/down when checked through a wireless connection on my laptop or phone. The gateway's wifi has been turned off, and I have a decent little Netgear router behind it handling my wireless (R7800). From that R7800, I have one Cat6...

    HikConnect giving alert notifications two weeks into the future

    I've got an I-series NVR on the latest firmware, eight 2355 cams on the latest firmware, and the newest version of HikConnect on a Galaxy S9. A couple of days ago I got about a dozen alerts/notifications on the app of smart events. The events did happen that day, but the alerts were dated...

    Monoprice Cat6 recall

    Searched and didn't see this posted. Yesterday Monoprice issued a recall for its Cat6 cable due to fire hazard. I got an email from Amazon today (where I ordered it from) and sure enough, I have 600 feet of this in my house...

    Intrusion/line crossing at dusk and dawn? Possible answer...

    About eight months ago I installed a Hikvision I-series NVR with eight 2355/2385 cams. I've always had three cams that set alarms on either intrusion or line crossing at both dawn and dusk each day. Those three cams are oriented the same direction, west, which is different than the remaining 5...

    Hack false alert?

    Old router died, so I bought a Netgear R7800 - a little better than the R6400 that it replaced. I have my new R7800 set up to send me logs via email (gmail) every Monday at 10:00 a.m. as sort of an experiment. In order to set it up I had to input my gmail login credentials into the router. At...

    False smart alerts at dusk and dawn

    I've got six 2355's attached POE to an I-series NRV. I've spent a good amount of time tweaking the smart events (intrusion and line crossing, don't use motion) so that I am nearly false alert free. The one thing still dogging me is that I get line/intrusion detection on two cameras at dusk and...

    How to show smart event markers in playback for Hikvision?

    I've got a 7608 I-series on the latest firmware and five 2355's on the latest firmware, all set to record continuously. I use line crossing and intrusion detection, not motion detection. On the NVR monitor in playback, any smart events show up as red lines in the blue playback line across the...

    Hikvision NVR update with IP and mac whitelist

    Hikvision just released firmware version 4.21 for its I-series NVR's (which I own). One of the new features allows whitelisting/blacklisting access by IP address or mac address. See attached portion of the release notes. Given all the various security issues with port forwarding, the...
