Yeah makes sense. I'll have to draw a diagram and post it. I already have an idea of where to put the cameras. One on each corner of the house to cover all areas. Just not sure how i'll be able to run cat6 cable in the attic to one side of the house since I have vaulted ceilings in the living...

I'll start with the wiki section and start looking over that. A lot of information about Blue Iris. Never used that before. Since I'm still in the winter months I'm looking to decide which NVR to go with first. Wether Blue Iris or a rack mount. Thanks and I'll look into the wiki pages.

Recently bought a home and my next project will be to get cameras installed to cover the entire house. I have some experience with camera systems like EagleEye & EZWatch NVR. I also helped install a Backstreet Surveillance system at a friend's house several years back. What I'm thinking is...

Thanks. The camera keeps freezing every few minutes then comes back online. I think it's dropping packets. I'm going to try a different switch, cable and see if it improves.

I did that and it's working great in ODM

Well I did a reboot of the NVR and the camera now shows. However the video keeps freezing and dropping every minute or two. Monitor shows 'The login return time is up.' After few minutes it will come back up then does the same thing over. All other cameras are stable and online.

Under Network > Advanced Settings. ONVIF is enabled. There I created another administrator user with password. I tried again on the NVR and still showing red after I put the new user credentials I created on the Hikvision UI. I downloaded the ONVIF Device Manager but not sure what I'm looking...

I bought a new 8MP Hikvision camera to add to my Dahua NVR and I've been following all the steps I have seen online and it still won't work. Status still shows red when I add it. When I search for cameras on the NVR it does come up but when I add it, it always shows red. I've changed the port...

I have one installed on the house. Now I'm going to try to install the other one on the garage. Is there good suggestion or tricks to aiming this?

Thanks for all the information TonyR. Where would you install one of these PVC mounts? I have an old DirectTV dish on the roof of the house. I'm thinking of taking the dish off and installing the bracket on the back of the house for a direct line of sight to the garage. Then buying Ubiquiti...

Yes. The garage is about 75-100ft away. Direct line of sight. I can install them on the roof of the house and garage.

Should I go with the Ubiquiti NS Loco M5 or NS MSM5? Wondering what is the difference

Thanks everyone! Since SouthernYankee made the nanostation suggestion, I've have been researching and came across this thread. Besides being a Gazebo it's almost the same thing I'm trying to accomplish. Plus I have watched a few YouTube videos about installing/setup. I was thinking about buying...

Thanks for the suggestion. What area of the forum should I look for Ubiquiti nano station posts?

Still learning about IP cameras and need a suggestion on my current setup. I have a 16 camera IP Dahua NVR connected to a Neatgear R8000 router. 6 wired cameras are on the outside of the house and another 3 cameras are on my garage. The issue I'm having is getting the garage cameras to have a...
