    Dahua NVR and DMSS help needed

    Revisiting this old thread after getting rather distracted! Looking for help re setting up Open VPN again. It was completely fine initially (as per above) but stopped working. Looks like I need a new certificate? I tried working through the suggestion above but get stuck early in the...

    Unable to log in to one of my Dahua cameras via the Dahua NVR interface

    Yeah I had, but to no avail. I'll try it again now and see how I go. It's weird - as you mentioned, I had this issue a few times over a few years. I fix it (somehow) and then it seems to return. I'll let you know how the process goes again....Mat

    Unable to log in to one of my Dahua cameras via the Dahua NVR interface

    Hmmm… can't reach this page It looks like the webpage at http://192.168.50.2:10080/ might be having issues, or it may have moved permanently to a new web address. ERR_UNSAFE_PORT Still getting the above guys with no luck. Can access all cams except one (by clicking on the "E" blue symbol via...

    I'm gonna reopen my old thread! It's happening all over again (see thread above). I don't recall changing anything. I haven't logged into my cam for a while, but as above, all the cams are accessible except that same one. I've tried the various suggestions above, but to no avail. Ideas...

    Dahua NVR and DMSS help needed

    Hey can I please pop into this thread? I’ve for some time had seamless experiences with Open VPN and remote access to my NVR via DMSS app. This has all stopped working. I’ve not messed with anything. It’s been a few weeks since I needed to use it, so don’t know how long it’s been stuffed...

    Can I add wireless cameras to a Dahua NVR ethernet-based setup?

    Thanks Fish. How would I know if this were the case with other brands of wireless? Would most doorbells work as a wireless unit "reporting to" the Dahua system and recorded by the NVR? We regularly have need to focus in on various goings-on out the front and to the side of our property...

    How to remotely view cam's and use NVR from portable devices?

    Right. For some reason all the popup window settings changed when I got the VPN going. I "allowed popups" for my NVR address and now working. Go figure!? Problem is, may cam's are 192.168.50.xxx:10080...10081....10082..... I can open all except the 1st, withe abovementioned error of a warning...

    How to remotely view cam's and use NVR from portable devices?

    As is my modus-operandi, I make sure that when I get something working, I break something else!! New issue: - since I got OpenVPI up and running, I can't access cams individually. That is, if I log into the NVR (192.168.50.xxx), no worries. But if I then go to "Cameras", I get the usual list...

    How to remotely view cam's and use NVR from portable devices?

    Ok. Next questions that are hurting my head guys! 1. If I'm at home, and the VPN is not installed on a client (or is installed and turned off), shouldn't I be able to access my router at its "normal" address (192.168........)? 2. The VPN seems to work (I trialed a username and password on my...

    How to remotely view cam's and use NVR from portable devices?

    Tried both. Also tried a laptop directly into router via Ethernet to make sure it wasn’t switch or something else..... Addit: So went back to the guide (above) and, rather than logging into my router with 192.168.50.xxx, I used https://[name of my VPN}.asuscomm.com:8443 This got me back into...

    How to remotely view cam's and use NVR from portable devices?

    Ok. 1st issue. I initiated the Open VPN following the link above from Wittaj, which seemed to go ok. One problem now is for some reason I cannot login to my Asus router's GUI as I normally do. It usually resides at 192.168.50.1, where my home network is 192.168.50.xxx. I just get "unable to...

    How to remotely view cam's and use NVR from portable devices?

    Thanks guys. Most helpful. I'll have a go at OpenVPN. - Flint, they are screenshots of my Router's GUI. It has the three VPN configurations on offer, built into the router it seems - Toastie, as a beginner, I'm afraid I didn't follow a single word of your post! I'm also unfamiliar with...

    How to remotely view cam's and use NVR from portable devices?

    Hi again all and I hope all is well! I've left my NVR/cam's alone for a while to just see if they all work well enough, and so far so good. So next is to sort out remote access - am I correct in saying a VPN setup is the best way to do this? If so, I'm new to VPN's and would love a little...
