Talk about a post being confused. You show a dvr screen You say you installed 2 hikvision Your network settings show your cams are IP You state on your network settings that port forwarding is set right ...... Which it can't be as both cameras have same IP You need to list your equipment and some screen shots

Hi. You need to know the return policy if looking to send back. You can do a simple test to see if it's your problem . Cut some lengths of black electrical tape and cover the sunsheld with it ... Then see how your night view is

Hi. Since your system is already installed I would get some mat black paint and paint the sun shield

Hi shade should be black .... Not glossy or shine or white (marked in red An other thing you can do is put some black tape over the top IR light (marked in green) so as only 2are showing. And see what your image is like.

Grow up. It's a mistake to pull others down .... In your posts .... Well not posts it's more like reading war and peace but still with a lot of mistakes so your not that perfect. Dont really need your advice.....this guy came in here trashing proper advice with nonsense. Hes getting what he deserves...if I offend you, you are welcome to ignore my posts. The post was not directed to you .... Infact it does not have any of your quotes in it.

Totally wrong ... Nothing you listed has anything near the data load as say a 3mp camera. Your talking commercial .. This thread is about a home

Hi you don't need to retrieve the SD card it is part of the recording storage . All you need to do in plug your network cable into port 8 If your network cable is also Poe then that will also power the unit but if your cable is not Poe you still connect to port 8 but also power the unit via connection marked 10. That way it's on your network If you just power via plug 10 the system is a complete standalone

Looks like IR wipeout. You need to post a picture of your camera On your last link the camera shows that the sun shield is painted black buy the lens Is yours white or black ??? Hikvision cameras had this problem 3 years ago

Hi ideal for you is this https://ring.com

Whom are you referring to? just curios Says the guy who talks crap and comes out with this statement

This is simple to work out .... It's your wording WIFI CAMERAS. and I have said twice you are getting mixed up. There are wifi cameras on the market ... IE camera power and pick up its wifi signal ... Cheap nasty cameras. Are you talking about them or standard IP that at some stage you are going to have them wifi from a router

Hi. I don't think that would be of any help. In most cases for the police they want a few hours before any problems

Hi did you watch the video You need nothing else small camera 1ch recorder all cables and fittings ...... Recorder takes SD card . The bonus is you have a network cable there as well allowing you to watch the room from anywere on PC or smartphone

Wifi can't be called a dedicated network But wifi cameras are usually cheap nasty short range and fail

Hi you will also need to list your type of camera

Best off going by brand names than sensor type Also forget wifi connect cameras

Your first link is the best option and I have used 100s But I haven't used eBay China copy .... The price is cheap it might last years

Hi. It depends on which camera used All your listings are ac power so you will need to run DC and AC if your cameras are 12v DC so best with 24v Also if you need IR you will need external

Image clarity is the same cvi or tvi... Both are 2mp .... Also cvi recorders also take tvi and IP and cheaper than tvi If going tvi then wait a month or so as new tvi3 is out ..... And you can't use old tvi on new tvi3 recorders

Hi. Have you looked at the ring door camera You might find it is more suitable for a front door area. Also records and gives you instant video to your mobile devices The free cloud service is also a way to have off site recordings if your existing dvr is taken or fails at any point https://ring.com

Cvi is realtime digital over coax and is also both ways .... One coax will take video audio and PTZ control and all camera function Tvi can't do that 4 down one cable ... Daisy chain with BNC Ts then run all 4 down one cable upto 1500m. ( can do 8 but not needed to do that yet) Good surgestion from ak347. Till you mentioned wireless. Bad idea

Hi. It is self contained. If you want covert then smoke detector camera might not be any good the space you are talking about anything new in the room will be noticed Cheap self contained covert from China like smoke detectors or alarm PIR sensors are bad quality uRgwPKyPcMk

You missed the part about my heavy local usage, that is the problem with this. I run a file server within my home I stream files from to other computers in my home. 2-4Mbps helps for an estimate....or is it mbps? This was also a thought if I did not want to run new cables to use IP cameras they have wireless IP cameras. However I already use 100% of my 802.11 N/AC when streaming files from my NAS to laptop (intermittently) so I was wondering if I could dedicate a router for cameras then feed it into my hardwired lan. This would avoid any camera traffic going through the router I use for my phone and laptop. Cvi tvi IP ... They are all good I like cvi better than tvi as everything is done at camera like IP. But you are right keep everything on its own cables (coax) IP on cat5 or 6 all back to a switch You said in another post you have 1000m runs that's a problem for IP you will need extenders to go that far Cvi or tvi will have no problems and even have 4 cameras down one coax

Hi. Yes the camera is Poe .... It plugs direct into its recorder It is for wall or overhead or hide in something You only need a hole this big .. .
