    Suggestions on Security system

    CVI and TVI should not be used in new installs. They are transitional technologies. The 328f limit of Ethernet is easily overcome by strategic placement of switches and in limited cases using extenders. Why would cvi or tvi not be used for a new install ?
  3. Can I ask why recommend a tribrid when op does not have any cameras ...... Seems pointless unless he wants 3 different formats may as well save money and go direct to IP

    Email test fail

    i'll try it, my router is new, i didnt understood all you asked: "We're are you located and how old is your router and make" change done, as i said before, i dont have any feedback if NO-IP connect well. email test still failed. (i guess it is configured ok in the picture attached) tomorrow morning i will restart the DVR, and check again. thank you so much for everything. Why are you testing email from your PC ?? Why are you not doing it from It's much better if you do everything at your dvr . Location means we're in the world are you. And who your ISP is

    Think your confusing everything? Your bringing in your remote viewing into your no email test .... These are two different things .... You have already said that all works

    Email test fail

    Hi. Set your primary to your routers IP the same as the gateway and enter 8.8.8.8 as your secondary ddns. We're are you located and how old is your router and make.

    Email test fail

    Where do I say it's a must. . EMAIL TEST FAIL is your post . We have to work out how you view local and over the net ... Because your dvr says not connected. What is your routers IP address .... And do you have more than 1 router

    Email test fail

    So you have more than one router ??? You need to stop reading Google to find your problem It's simple you need your dvr onto a network gmail will not work as it is .... Your dvr needs a way out to send. You are best telling us how your network is set up
  9. Hi. Northern Ireland or UK ...... The police and courts would call your footage unfit for use. If you have a bad image that's all you have. Did your shop system not catch anything before they found it. Might have something of use on there. Also in most cases look at a few days of footage as sometimes they will come and check your store out first .... Try and spot your cameras or recorder

    Email test fail

    Email test fail

    here, i attached 2 photos, do i missed something? by the away, 1. PPPoE is not confirured now, it with "0", not "1". (the DVR is connected to a router) 2. my dynamic "ddns" is NOIP.ME, its not on the list of the settings, so maybe that the reason i cant set it working well in the DVR. but still i dont thinks it suppose to have an influence on the EMAIL. thanks for all the help. YES it has a big influence on email ..... ESPECIALLY When your not even connected to any network looking at your pictures. That is the reason it's not working ..... Even if you did a firmware you would still be in the same situation. You need to first get your dvr onto your network And your gmail port is also wrong ....
  12. Hi. Do a second port forward for your recorder to 34667 Then use dahua PSS software on your PC
  13. Can you post a picture of your dvr network page ?

    Email test fail

    You might find YOUR OTHER POST USEFUL viewtopic.php?f=1&t=49876 Can you post an image of your dvr network screen
  16. I think you are going to make a mistake doing upgrade none brand name But with you only talking LAN and you don't have your primary ddns set to your router. Then it's a network problem . Do you have remote access with external IP away from your system ?
  17. Why do you have primary ddns set at google it should be your router IP ..... Your second ddns should be either 8.8.8.8 if that does not work then try 8.8.4.4

    HDCVI vs AHD

    Hi CVI is your best way to go much better than AHD
  19. Hi. No it's not a hikvision. Yes you can configure that system to view cameras from NVR or cameras on your network and still control from the one app ... It also has 99 users with camera configuration and multi log in passwords But that unit is about to be updated.
  20. Hi. Thought it was with the Google ddns being changed on it.
  21. It's asking your router to assign a IP ..... Was your unit new when you got it ? Where are you located
  22. Hi. Click on DHCP and click save then power down your unit then restart and see if IP has changed
  23. Hi. If you go into network settings of your dvr does IR show IP ... Subnet and gateway ?
  24. Hi . On your PC it will be Your local IP followed by 37777

    Superintendent's Surveillance System?

    He said he'd like to keep it under $1500 and we'd probably need 8 cameras. That's why I had the idea of using the SD card cameras because cabling the building up with brick and 5 stories plus a basement would probably be $1500 or more for the cabling alone. SD card cameras are not the problem .... But to not know if they are recording or have been removed .... Is also a waste of $1.500. You need hard wired cameras or POE
