Ok. Well you have no problems in pressing the reset button on your router ....... As you are only using it locally you don't need to do any port forwarding Reset your router ..... Then go into dvr network setting and you will see a tick box DHCP tick it and press apply. Come out of network screen and then go back into it. Under IP address ..... That is the IP you need to use ....... You don't need to do any port forwarding Just enter into your laptop browser http://IP address from your dvr. And it will connect
-
Well that's simple ..... Just call your ISP and ask them to reset your password
-
Password for what
-
No. Don't touch the reset button ........... Nothing has happend to your router ..... It's only your laptop that gave up.

Hi. If you still use the vigor router you should not have a problem You only need the local IP address of your dvr which can be found in network settings .it will be something like 192.168.1.x and the port will be 37777 ...... Just enter all that into your PSS. For a quick test again look for local IP in dvr network settings and then just type your IP and port into your browser http://192.167.1.x:37777. And that should take you direct to your dvr browser screen

Hi a faraday cage is not the problem ..... if the camera 8 inch way from it has no problems. What happend when you swap both cameras over .... put good one we’re bad one is. You only need to swap cables over. What type of baluns did you use and what is the distance of cable run .... and do both cameras have there own cable or have you just used 1 cat5 for both -

It's a simple order from hikvision for 8mm. Only have to state with 8mm or any of the other options when ordering Do you not offer that with your original hikvisions -

yes , not the same company . we don't have 8mm lens in stock . Well that gave away that cameras are gray market -
Hi. You should not port 80 on your router .........you should change port 80 on your recorder to something else and then port forward that on your router......... Best security is always change user name password and port 80 which are all admin default and should be changed

Mobile DVR Security Camcorder: How to improve quality?
tomcctv replied to anon001's topic in Security Cameras
It's ok it will stay up. You come on for advice .......... You don't like what you hear. Even down to surgesting using external lighting to help you don't accept. You buy crap yet you want better from your crap Your not using a IP raspberry....... Your not using iPhone cam You paid $90 for something that's all over eBay for $20 There is still one born everyday I just asked "If there's a way to improve night light?" You can answer "NO" and get your way. You still can't tell me, which sensor is used in the camera. If I know the sensor (the 20 usd crap) I can know, if it is IR blocking or sensitive. I did not answer no on how to improve night vision ........ Did you not read the post on adding the light from Costco.? Does your little camera have IR fitted now ?? Answer is no ..... So why would a cut filter be added You seam to be taking offence to the reply ....... Where if you looked at it as help Let's go back to your camera ....... IR or not .....say your looking into your garden and someone walked around your garden at night. You would have to sit and watch that footage from your SD card you would have to watch it all....... So if you recorded 8 hours you would have to watch 8 hours to see if anything happend....... You have no way of detecting motion. Adding the light with PIR I listed gives you an indication of movement in your garden and it will make it much easier for you when looking back on your SD card ....as you are only interested in footage were the light comes on (seen in your footage) also saves you watching 8 hours -
Well since your involving me in your posts ...... Ok I will correct you NVR ......Network Video Recorder. Simple mistake for someone who has never used one. But you are right IP cameras can recorded to NVR or SD card .........but your wrong in saying you need to Internet access for anything else. It's a rookie mistake that people think you need Internet for a IP setup. You only need a LAN network (local area network) and that allows more recording options ...... PC with vms ....local cloud....raid. Only time you need Internet or WAN is if you want off site storage or cameras are in another location (miles away) or to have the ability to view your system when away from you LAN. Your right with options DVR or NVR. But there is also hybrid .......which most DVRs these days are.

Mobile DVR Security Camcorder: How to improve quality?
tomcctv replied to anon001's topic in Security Cameras
First of all, please tell me, what kind of sensor is used so I can check it. I'm so sorry, but I paid 90 bugs and I don't want to protect my car..... And this is really getting trolly, if you ask me... I cannot understand people like you. The rasperry pi with a cheap cam is able to do so (of course handwork is needed), but a professional camera isn't able to do with some modification??? For the Administrators, please do, what you have to do. PS: For your information, today sensors are not very expensive like it has used to be. Iphones are made 50 USD in China and getting sold 1000 Dollar. Belive me, today electronical parts are the less expensive things, only costy thing are licences or delivery. PS: Magic never works. Please don't think you cheap cam has anything like a iPhone camera . If you can install a better sensor and a lens do it ....... But to save you all the messing about why not just install a PIR light where cam is located ........ Better image than IR and image will be in colour. Something like this from Costco -

Well check them out on Amazon ........ If you buy after reading that then you need help. Oh hikvision don't allow aurtherised sellers to sell on Amazon how can that happen. Hongli He........is the uk hikvision director it only takes you a phone call .... Or he might chime in. He is in China If your happy over spending £1.700 with a hikvision recorder then you need to do a bit more home work. Like what has already been said genuine hikvision cameras are good but there NVRs are out of date and problematic every time they do updates. You only have to search forum and it's the most complained about NVR along with there ivms............just too day there are 2 new posts ..... Can't connect because of time differance. Since you are a few months away from changing I'll give you and a friend a free pass to the largest CCTV show in Europe that is held in London every year ...... It starts 22nd of March 2018. Go and try all systems see new tech and I'll sort out your vip lunch with all manufacturers

Adding IR will not work with that camera. No cut filter or a lens filter. And your link are the wrong ir s anyway. Buy yourself a cctv camera with ir and built in SD card -
Direct from there website ............now I can tell you they do sell on Amazon and eBay ...... And the same problem as on there website there over priced .........tvi hik from a distributor is £40 cheaper I know how many people there are in the uk I also know who the distributors are for all products in the uk .... 36 years in the industry in the uk I like to keep my hand in. Can I ask why you want to change your Swann system after only a few weeks could you have bought better ? Hi view hikvision platform your right is there new domestic range and will keep with the existing hikvision platform which was said earlier in one of the posts ......but the new hikvision range complete new software - new apps will not be backward compatable.

No . I don’t have an answer. But like I have said no problem using hik cameras ... it’s recorders I have problem with ...... hik are about to change recorder software let’s see how old cams cope with that . Company you list if you buy from them ask this question.. Why are they selling 4 way tvi kit with only 3 cameras ... and have to buy the 4th camera separate ........ it’s like buying a car with only 3 wheels

+1 Plus when you say bought from eBay baluns do they look like this eBay is full of these and they are not baluns.
