  1. I am having the darndest time getting the http and rstp ports changed on my cameras this is what is happening.

     

    When I first install a camera it has all the standard ports open 80 for http 554 for RSTP etc. the problem comes when I change the port.

     

    What happens after I set the port to anything else the camera reboots till it becomes inaccessible, I open the ports in the router like every other device I access on my network but these cameras seem to hate something in my google fiber network box.

     

    I sent an email to google and all they could say was the standard do you have the ports forwarded in your router response.

     

    I can sometimes ping the camera when it wont show up on the SADP program but soon that stops responding too, I have my old router set up so I can change the ports back to standard and every thing will work, on the old router I can put any port and it works.

     

    I am lost because I don't know the right question to ask, is it a router problem or a camera problem? It sounds like a router problem to me but it could be a simple camera setting pissing off the router, if any body can point me to a starting point I would be very greatfull.

     

    Did you disable UPNP on the camera?

    Just never use UPNP it's insecure and not necessary when you have admin rights on the router.


  2. Mode A.... why don't you just buy you a smart poe switch rather than buying multiple injectors.

     

    Are you sure it's mode A ? that's quite unusual, most of the stuff in the market is Mode B (mid span) which technically means the injector is between the switch and the device.

    Afcourse the switch can support both A and B if it is smart enough, maybe that is where the 802.3f comes in?

     

    Right, Mode B is mainly used if you are not powering a device through the switches POE but rather through a Midspan or Injector. The 802.3f is used in an injector.

     

    Found this great article:

    So just to sum this up:

     

    I can use a mid-span mode B injector, or a mode A switch to power a hikvision camera as long as it is 802.3f ?

  4. Storage is no problem, have several harddisks and such.

     

    On another note, what type of POE does Hikvision have?

    I know it's 802.3af, but do they use Mode-A (endspan) or Mode-B (midspan) ?

    I cannot find any information about this anywhere.


  5. Hi!

     

    I am new to the forum and new to the NVR area.

    I am looking for a brand spanking new NVR to record from my 4x 1080 full hd hikvision camera's.

    Want a 8ch one because i may want to expand in the future.

    There are a lott of them on the market, i looked at the Xvision mini nvr, but i cannot find any pictures on how the web interface looks?

     

    I am not going to look at the video from the monitor connected to the NVR, but remotely via Web, what would be my best solution?

    The NVR will be in an dedicated serverroom.

     

    A little under $100 is my price range.

     

    Any help is appriciated!
