If the mounting location is inside a large overhang, or under a patio where it will not see any water, would it be fairly safe to install an indoor dome camera outside?

Well, I purchased a cheapo quad splitter on ebay. The equipment is made in China. It works better than expected. For a cheap quad, it was loaded with features...now if will only last.

That would be good if you had more cameras then the 4 channels on the DVR.

 

Otherwise I would just keep the DVR in the quad display mode.

 

I have used multiplexors for store displays, and mix images from cable, DVD players ,and cameras.

 

Nothing like watching four football games at the same time on a projection screen!!

I couldn't stop with four cameras.

Do you have a recommendation on a quad? I will be sending the quad into one channel of an avermedia 1304net. Should I pick up a budget quad?

I am kicking around the idea of using a quad splitter in front of ONE of the dvr's 4 channels. If it works, the smaller images would be mostly for observation. The three other channels would be more for security.

Opinions?

Went into the ddns settings, and put in the name that I registered into the avermedia site, still nothing. Then I changed the video port settings on the 1304, and port forwarded the same port on the linksys. (Used 80)

Now, I am able to access it remotely without having the DVR in the linksys DMZ.

Thanks to everyone for helping me out.

Have not updated the linksys yet. I did have the block anon. users tab checked. I unchecked that, forwarded a few more ports 5400 tcp/udh 53 and 1053 as well. Then I moved the linksys 1304 ip out of the dmz, tried to get it remotely, and failed once again. Moved it back to the dmz, and it works fine.

I do not have the DDNS domain name, or password filled out that dopalgangr shows a screen shot of. Is that field needed?

Using the mac address sounds interesting....

Well, I got it. I had to enable DMZ on the linksys. It seems to be the only way it will connect over the internet. Is the DMZ setting safe?

Can veiw locally, still can't get in remotely. Changed the 1304 to static, forwarded port 5001 (video) 80 (http) 5005 (upgrade) 389 and 3996-4000 (Not too sure which port is the remote config)

Any other ideas? I am almost there.

The site is not allowing me to post my full message. I am still locked out of the PM loop. Email sent. Tough to be a board newbie...

Thanks VST. I will be away on Wednesday. I plan on getting this done the day after. I will shoot you a pm if I can't get it. Thanks for the offer. I will report back either way.

I took the 1304 to another location. The location has wireless broadband (fixed wireless) with no router. I diabled the firewall, and tried the static, and DHCP settings on the 1304. Still can't connect to it. Is a router an absolute must with this unit? (I connected the 1304 via a linksys workgroup hub.)

The router is a linksys, the wireless bridge is also a linksys.

How do I load updated firmware, if I can't get the 1304 online?

I'm not too sure if I can get into the router, to change the settings, but I will give it a whirl.

I am having a tough time getting my eb1304net connected thru the internet. The unit works very well, I have had no issues until I wanted to connect it online.

The unit will give me a DHCP IP address, that actually worked a couple of times. I brought up the interface, and the cameras via an internet connected laptop. Other than working a few short times, it will not connect at all. One of the last things that I noticed when it worked was a little network icon on the monitor, beside the clock/date. (The monitor connected directly to the 1304)

Is there a way to reset the 1304, and begin network installation over again? Anyone ever run into something like this?

I just tried to order one of these units. I'm not too sure if I ordered from the same site mentioned. The price was EXCELENT! My order was cancelled, and out of stock. I know the moderators don't want me to post a store name, or price. I just registered on this site, so I am PM LOCKED. Can someone help me out? Perhaps the mods will unlock me......? Thanks in advance.
