ludshed, you’re correct. For some reason the date was off by one. Don’t know how that happened. Time was right though. It also fixed the streaming issues at 89%. Thank you

Do you know why the device streaming times out at 89%, and why I can’t get up to the minute recording? Thanks

The cameras are Hikvision (sorry don’t know the model) and the NVR is a Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2/8P. I can access playback on the NVR via HDMI, although I can’t playback today’s recording as it seems to have a 24 hour buffer. I can’t access playback on my Mac’s, iPad and iPhone. Do I need to...

Hi, I have 5 cameras outside the house. When I click to Playback on any device, it will try to load the recorded video but stops at 89-90%. My NVR is connected via Address Reservation, so it’s always the same IP address. Live View is great, never an issue there, but when I try to playback from...

Great, thanks for the info guys. I appreciate it.

Hi, I have 5 cameras connected via ethernet cable to a Hikvision DS-7600 Embedded NVR. On my router, the DS-7600 has its own Address Reservation. Do I need to add my 5 cameras to the Address Reservation as well? If so, how do I do that? They're not listed in my device list on the router. Since...

Thank you, Tony. I appreciate it.

I'm using the HiLook app on my iPad. The system is working fine, but I was wondering why the Alias IP is different from the Address IP. Should they both be the same IP? Thank you

Never mind, figured it out. For those having issues with that, just turn on swipe gestures in the Control center.

I didn't know where to post this, so feel free to move it if it's in the wrong forum. I'm using the Hit-Connect app on my 11 inch iPad Pro. When in landscape mode, all 4 cameras appear correctly, but when I turn the iPad to view in portrait mode, the cameras remain in landscape mode. Anyone...

So far the G.hn is working, but before I count my winnings, I need to make sure this is working for a few days. It's extremely sensitive. On another note, when I look at my screen, each camera has a date and time on it. How do I change that in the NVR or Hik-Connect app? Thanks again!

ok thanks wittaj. At the moment, they're working and have been for 30 minutes. I'll try getting the G.hn as well, just in case they work better.

Hey wittaj, Thanks for the info. When you say it either works or doesn't, does that apply to the G.hn as well?

Regarding the arc fault..., I'm checking with my electrician. I need adapters with pass-thru outlets. Will this work...

Tony, am I better off getting the G.hn? Thanks

Hey guys, as soon as it stops raining, I'll check the panel. In the meantime, I am getting live view, but it comes and goes. Either I get Unstable connection or Failed to play video. My question is, if the 2 power line adapters were not on the same circuit, would it still work, even though it's...

Hey Tony, I'll look into that. How does one check whether they're on the same side of the breaker panel? On the plus side, the adapter is connected directly in the wall. Thanks!

Ok, so I got the TP-Link AV1000 Powerline Ethernet Adapters. Connected and paired them. Everything worked, but after 10 minutes I got the attached messages. Any suggestions? Every time they get knocked off, I re-pair both adapters, but the same thing occurs after a few minutes. Thanks

Funny you should suggest the TP-Link AV1000 Powerline Ethernet Adapter. That's what I purchased. Getting it today from Amazon. I'll be able to connect a 12v adapter for the camera. Thanks again for the help.

Oh, does the camera need to be connected to an outlet as well, or will the power line adapter handle that? Thanks

Beautiful, thank you. I'm getting 2 power line adapters. :) Thanks again guys. You're all so very helpful.

Just making sure I understand these power line adapters. Do I: 1) connect a powerline adapter in an outlet next to the NVR. 2) connect an ethernet cable to a port on the NVR and power line adapter. 3) connect the remote powerline adapter in an outlet next to the camera. 4) connect an ethernet...

ok thank you for all your help. I appreciate it.

If reconnecting doesn't work, how does one use the power line adapters and am I better off getting a wireless Hikvision cam if I can't use the cable? Thanks!

Thanks for the info, wattaj. So I had a 100 foot ethernet cable in storage which I completely forgot about, disconnected the other cable, connected the new one and the camera works. Shit, now I figure out how to run that cable through-out the house. Without destroying the ceiling, if I can't...

Good thing is that I do have contact cleaner. I'll try that first. I'll also check the infrared later when it gets dark. If I decide to use the 12v adapter again, how do I turn off the PoE on the NVR? Thanks wittaj.

Tony, we know the NVR had PoE built into it. But the NVR is connected to a switch that doesn't have PoE. Should the switch have PoE? I've tried everything. Purchased a LAN Explorer cable tester with remote. The cable is good. Everything I've tried tells me the device is offline or it says No...

ok thanks Tony.

Hey guys, I haven't been able to get to this for a few days, but I have a question regarding the Hikvision: DS-2CD2345FWD-I camera. From what I can see, attached to the camera is a cord with ethernet and power. An ethernet cable is connected to it, but not the power. Do I need to connect the...

I properly replace both RJ45's on the cable. I even bought a LAN tester and everything comes up green = pass. The thing is, the cam will work and then it stops working with the message: Network is unstable. Connecting again... Failed to play video.
