ITAdmin 0 Posted January 31, 2017 Hello all! First visit here. Looks like a great place! Here's my situation, I have 2 buildings at my company and I need to install cameras at both locations. At the building where the NVR will be located, we will be installing 6-8 IP cameras, easy to do, no issues with that part. The next part is my dilemma. I want to use the Internet connection at the remote building to send the video from 4-6 IP cameras back to the NVR via the Internet, using a VPN tunnel I can create. Does this sound reasonable? I do have line of site for a point to point wifi connection, which the distance is about 2 city blocks. I would like to try and keep the cost down and since we have Internet at both buildings, it would make the most sense (and cents) to use that as a medium of transmission. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks to all Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeromephone 6 Posted February 2, 2017 Do you mean that the same company network is at both buildings? If they are the same all you have to do is put a POE switch attached to the network and give your cameras the right addresses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ITAdmin 0 Posted February 3, 2017 No we have 2 separate comcast cable modems, one at each building with different IP's and accounts. No direct connectivity between the buildings unfortunately Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeromephone 6 Posted February 3, 2017 try a CMS system from several different mfgs. I know Geovision has one and so does Hikvision (at least I think they do as the cameras I worked with were rebranded Hikvision) That way you can view all the cameras on one pc and even look at recorded video. You would also be able to do most configuration and replay from the PC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
