    Camera system messes with work computer VPN

    I can't seem to figure this out. I've had my Dahua system set up since last July. I run BI on a Dell computer with an 8 port POE+ unmanaged Netgear switch. For some reason, having the switch connected to the internet will sometimes mess with my work computer's VPN. But only with internal company...

    BI not listing Alerts

    Over the last day, I have stopped getting notices of Alerts in the little timeline bar at the bottom of the screen. But, it appears that BI is still triggering and recording correctly. For example, I have one camera set to record only upon triggering, when a car drives by (LPR). BI is triggering...

    Intermittent Camera Drop Outs

I have having trouble with the SD1A203T-GN and intermittent drop-outs in Blue Iris. I receive the error "8000274c" and within a few seconds, the camera reconnects. Today alone it...

    Does a camera with these specs exist?

    A 4mp, Starlight, varifocal turret camera? I can't seem to find one in Andy's store. I'd like the 4mp for future proofing, the Starlight for obvious reasons, the varifocal to be able to dial in my needs, and the turret for the discreetness. Thanks.

    New to IP cams and I'm stuck. Help?

    I purchased a Dahua PTZ camera from Andy's Amazon store. Starlight SD1A203T-GN. I also bought a 4x Netgear POE switch. I haven't decided yet on an NVR or computer running Blue Iris so I decided to run the demo version of Blue Iris in the meantime. I was able to connect and initialize the...
