Pm me the dns settings. I just want to see what type It's going to be deleted anyway as I will give you a free secure ddns that only you will have control

You can list the ports And all dns

Hi. Can you send me your units serial number from the underside. Also post the IP from far east

Dyn is a ddns service Who set the port forwarding for you ?

Hi. It would be better just to match and replace the old one.

Hi no you don't need a new dvr .... you also don't have a static ip from your internet provider First thing you need to do is remove your ddns account Did you set up the ddns or someone else ? Who is your internet with ?

Hi. Why use a ddns if you have a static Bots don't re wright. What ports are open on your router

Hi. It is very unlikely as the 5 year old does not have p2p... it was manual setup. Also black listed ip does not point to your isp. That still changes ... it's the ddns service that gives and holds your ip. Who is your internet with ?

One that does not get sick

Yes your unit should startup ... a bad hard drive can stop it. And it does no harm removing it

Hi. A much better system is this and in your budget .... It is the dahua system ..... Stay with IP cameras if you are installing yourself this system is full POE ... Everything down one cable to each camera https://www.lorextechnology.com/hd-ip-security-camera-system/hd-security-camera-system-with-2k-recorder-weatherproof-cameras/LN10802-84W-1-p

Hi. Your link IS NOT A HIKVISION and you will have no support from hik at all. And you can't use hikvision software.

Hi same thing ..... how many times do people pass camera each day Any change in view adds data ....... it is normal

No am not hard on you.......shanzen products are cheap throwaway crap. .... No support ..... As you have found out Phone call to tech ...... Costs more than what you paid for NVR Sending unit back ...... Costs more than what you paid for it. You also need to understand firmware. ...... No firmware update for your unit. Firmware is a way to alter or add to the NVRs existing software...... You can't add another's firmware ...... Just as you can't remove and add better software to your unit. And you have ignored the 5 ports that you have allowed past your firewall and any antivirus you might have on your network .... And there always going to be open ...... Why have your internet linked to a China server. But for your original post you will find you will have better control of your cameras including motion if you link cameras to a switch then to NVR.

Hi. Have you started dvr up without hard drive

I expected another answer. An answer like 'you can use an alternative firmware such as this one ...' Thank you for your participation So you buy cheap crap and expect to use a better software Let's see what $24 has got you ......... Did you check the auto setup for remote view ......... Auto opens 5 ports that you have no control over ..... Punches hole past any firewalls and you have no clue were your data is going .....not just from your NVR but everything on your network. The sad part is even if you replace your cheap crap ..... The ports are still open and attached to a China server....... Full router reset and IP change.

Hi that is normal ...... it all depends what happens in each frame. Movement- shadows- wind on trees. Even light change will add to data

Hi. Keep it simple and use cat5 ...... The link you posted for the cable .... Is cheap rubbish and is not suitable for CCTV. Conduit around your house ..... Can look a mess but if you have to use it again cat5 will allow you to use the smallest conduit possible Cat5 you can get 4 cameras down 1 cable ...... Or 2 cameras plus power .... You need 4 feeds that is only 2 cables.

Hi. At what distance are your cameras going. IP cameras do not need a Internet connection to work .... It's a local network. But I would look at CVI instead of IP it will be better for you as regarding updates. And you will get a lot more for your money if you go CVI

Hi. 12 Ch nvr for $26. There is not much to expect from it.

Hi what type of baluns have you used

Professional installer ....... In what .... Crap. Your cat5 is good enough so save your money. It's actually time, labor and money. Tonight I visited a store that sells Hikvision and has a qualified staff on duty. I asked them four questions, one being about the cable requirements. It doesn't hurt to get a 2nd opinion, given that one variable is cable length, of which wasn't given above. Again stay away from qualified staff ..... ..... Please let us know what the staff said about cable length..... I'll give you a hint .... It's the same.

Hi. Don't change IP or use DHCP.... All you have to do is go into your router and look for added devices........ Look for your recorder and you will see recorders local IP. ...... Use that on your PC to connect with recorder

Professional installer ....... In what .... Crap. Your cat5 is good enough so save your money.
