  1. I have 3 cameras connected to my Swann NVR-460. When I first installed them, they were fine (after advice on this forum). Having not used the system for a few months, I reinstalled the whole system with no problems, except that the cameras connect through wifi, the clock runs, but after about 20 seconds (but this varies a lot) the clock stops, the wifi symbol on the camera image disappears, and then I get the message "Video Loss". Half a minute later, it comes back on. I have tried rebooting the system, but it seems to make no difference. The main wifi signal in the top right of the screen shows full signal all the time. Any ideas?
  2. Thank you for a very thorough response. I am going to copy that and keep for future reference - it is so much better than the Swann version! However, my main problem is that I cannot connect by wire to the router. There are no ports other than a Samsung mini-comms port. Although it is a wireless router and has a good range, it looks just like a mobile phone and, in the same way, only has that one port which is not CAT5. I agree, the Swann system is a good system - just a shame about the technical support!
  3. I have a Swann NVR460 and 3 wireless cameras, now 4 months old. I wish I hadn't. My last communication with Swann support still has not been answered since 30th May, despite 2 reminders. The problem: Using a land line wireless broadband, I paired the cameras with the 460 successfully. I then changed the router to a mobile network wireless router, also successfully. My new address has no access to land line broadband, and, in transition, all the cameras were lost. The mobile network router does not have LAN ports. I tried connecting a data cable direct from the one LAN port on the NVR460 to a camera. It worked, and when I unplugged the data cable, it changed to wireless communication through the mobile router to that camera. When I tried to add another camera using the same method, that camera would not work, and the first one I had successfully added was also lost. With no LAN ports, how do I add cameras? I still have the land line wireless router, but, of course, no possible communication with an ISP, and I don't know whether this information helps or not.
