    wifi ip camera system question

    Hi. Then this is the right time to wire your house for cameras … just use cat5 wireless cameras with dvr have never been reliable. Analog wireless are proprietary so don’t last once cameras start to fail
  2. Hi if your camera is working fine I recommend you don’t do a firmware update as you can’t go back if fails last update was 08/2023 https://www.hikvision.com/en/products/IP-Products/Network-Cameras/Pro-Series-EasyIP-/DS-2CD2385G1-I/?subName=DS-2CD2385G1-I

    Powerline adapters

    Hi. If your using your Powerline adapters straight from out of the box they still work however if using more than 1 set then it is best to give each pair its own local iP address this is easy done by looking at the login iP of your adapters (192.168.x.x) which you will find on it ….. first pair give them a new iP something like 192.168.1.70 on both and on the other set 192.168.1.71 on both and this will stop the conflict you are getting as both are using the out of box iP (both sets are the same)

    ERROR UPDATE AHB7016T-LM-V3 V2.4

    Hi that’s a 10 year old dvr and looks like you have tried to update with firmware that’s not supported also your best option is get another dvr … your like many others is full of spyware which is fully documented and you can’t fix …. Anything from Xiongmaitech is a bad unit also under the name xmeye

    Hikvision Nvr

    Do you have any power at were you want the cameras but by using smart cameras (which are not cctv) I know tapo cameras you can’t as you need there server for them to work
  8. Hi. You will need to give details of your ptz BUT being Wi-Fi only im guessing it’s a smart camera ….. cctv and smart cameras are too different things and should not get mixed up with each other usually app controlled cameras are proprietary and intrusive I would recommend no one uses them

    Port Forwarding not working

    Hi are you using a APP ?
  10. Don’t need to go DDNS on local … it was only a test to see if you could connect
  11. Ok. Delete the xmeye app then install it again THEN first go bottom left of the app and click on the screen icon. And enter details don’t use serial number instead use your local iP address 192.168.1.230. Then see if it connects problem with using serial number is it’s already been used by the last owner with all there sign in credentials
  12. Hi. On the xmeye app did you sign up for the cloud service and did you use a qr code
  13. Hi. you might be lucky with one of the xmeye apps which mobile platform are you using apple or android also if you have a pc on the same network can you try entering this into your browser http:// 192.168.1.230 and see if you get access to your system

    what power supply for my camera?

    Hi any power supply that states 12v 3amp will run your camera …. If you let me know your location I’ll post a Amazon link but you might find it better if you buy a 4way Poe switch (you don’t need to run power cable to camera then) and there just a little more for a Poe switch
