Hello All
This is my first post here and also very new with security cameras, not Knowing what to buy I went and purchase some WIFI cameras and NVR from ebay, the name of the camera maker is Sinocam they are bullet cameras they problem I am having is that using their software the cameras keep disconnecting very often, I purchased BI and is a lot better but not perfect, they drop here and there, I found out about this forum on the BI page under support, I wish I would have known about you guys before my purchase.
I been reading lots of threads here and some of the installs makes mine look bad, but is the first time for me on this type of installation and now that I am here I will do a lot better.
After Reading about the different types of cameras, i don't like the cameras I got. I still want to use wifi but if I have to convert to a different setup I will.
My Router and computers are in the back of the house and the cameras need to be on the front of the house I am posting some pictures of the cameras, The front of my house is facing north, I have one camera in front of the house right above my garage, the east and west are installed on the fascia board of the eaves and the last camera is by the front door.
I also purchased a distribution 8 channel power supply is a 12V DC supply 10 amps and this is what I use to power the cameras.
I want to replace them all, I been looking at this camera DS-2CD2132F-IWS is also a WIFI camera and the specs claim the range of the wifi is very good, if it doesn't work out as far as the WIFI than I can run a Ethernet cable to them.
I have questions on the setup for this camera, I know they have to be install on a compatible bracket for wall mouth, on the east and west sides of the house, the cameras after the installation with no adjustments, the lens of the cameras will be pointing to east and west and I need them to point to the north, I know these cameras are 3 axis cameras, can I rotate the cameras to point north? that is my biggest concern, please let me know of other setups options and other cameras that will work better for me.
Any comments will be much appreciated.
Regards.
