Said you were using static IP before? Maybe you don't have static IP anymore. Check your WAN IP on canyouseeme.org or whatsmyip.org occasionally. If it is not the same all the time , then your ISP is connecting you using dynamic DNS , and in that case you have to use some DDNS service. Try free no-ip account for instance, valid only one month but you can try. Of course ports still must be forwarded . I can't think of any reason why you couldn't connect to your DVR on LAN if DVR has static IP (usually 192.168.x.x). More info would be helpful.

I use iVMS-4500 app with Cloud P2P connection to DS-7204 HGHI/E1 DVR. Live View is doing fine, but in Remote Playback i Can see only one camera at the time. On other installations which are connected directly (HiDDNS, portforwarding) I can playback normally, up to 4 cameras simultaneously. I searched around, but haven't found any official explanation about this. Is Cloud P2P really limited to playback only one camera or I did something wrong?

I agree with Boogieman. Standard CCTV and trail cameras are two different worlds. First of all, trail camera has no remote access, no live view, no internet connection. If you want to see the recordings , you must come to the site , connect to the camera (if it's still there where you left it) or take the SD card out and playback. Ok, it can send snapshots and videos via email, but if you mount it on a crowdy place, batteries will run down much faster than you've expected. It's not called "hunting camera" without reason, it's very useful on a lonely site without any power supply, but that's it, and nothing more. Speaking of picture quality, wired CCTV offers wide range of resolutions, from 720HD over FullHD , to 4 or 5 Mpix and even more. Decision is all yours.

Have you changed the DVR's setup? Is there any phone app setup to check? Looks like PAL / NTSC mismatch.

Power consumption (supply current) depends on the device model. Check the technical data for every camera and DVR/NVR and don't forget to add HDD consumption. Consumption is practically constant and not dependent on the states you've mentioned, only cameras with IR illumination have lower consumption in day mode. For example, small Hikvision's day/night camera consumes maximum 4 W , and 4 channel DVR 10 W. There is no difference in power consumption between analog and HD or IP cameras, because the analog cameras are also "computerized" using DSP. Starting (power up) time is different for each DVR/NVR. For analog and HD cameras it's almost instant but IP cameras need some time to boot up. Event trigger is instant, motion trigger starts recording even some time ( 5s typ.) before the motion event.

There is EagleEyes app available both for iPhone and iPad, there should be no problem if it works on Android.

My idea was to arrange the system (wiring, LAN switches, cameras) in a way that cable length between a camera and a corresponding switch is no more than 100 m. Maybe you should consider using more LAN switches. BTW, what do you mean by "24 port NVR" ? Is it 24 channel NVR ?

Try IP Cam Viewer by Robert Chou. Most versatile IPcam and DVR/NVR viewer I have ever seen. Try posting some screenshots to identify the DVR.

Check your router's WAN IP address (somewhere on Status page) and real one (whatsmyip.com or canyouseeme.org) . If they are not the same, thids is the problem: Mobile internet ISPs often do not enable port forwarding. If they use "WAN IP sharing", then you have another router(s) (which you cannot setup) between your point of connection and internet. In this case only solution is P"P (cloud) connection. I'm not familiar with SRD-443 but it sounds like an old DVR and probably don't support cloud connection.

Putting a LAN switch somewhere in between should definitely do the job, and you could group some cameras and connect them to NVR with just one cable..

I can't believe that no one encountered the same problem !?

You should have no problem with 18 AWG wire on 60 ft. This 24 VAC supply is made just to avoid voltage drop influence on even longer cable run. Check supply voltage on camera side, and if it's more than 20 VAC , camera should work fine. What is with Ethernet cable?

I suggest testing iSpy . It's free, open source and has a large list of compatible devices, both DVRs and IP cameras. I tested it briefly, it worked OK, but haven't checked all the features. Other solution is Milestone. Very powerful, full of features, but also very, very expensive. Lack of static IPs is no problem, use some commercial DDNS service for all sites. Dyn.com is the most popular, $40/yr for 30 sites and available on practically any device on Earth. Good luck

Try disconnecting both devices and scan IP addresses on the network (I suggest Advanced IP Scanner) to check if there is any IP address conflict, ie. is there any other device with ...1.80 or ...1.82 address. Next, try using different IP addresses (192.168.1.180 , 192.168.1.182) And finally, one question: what kind of network equipment you use, is there any smart LAN switch or something like that?

Make some snapshots of DVR screen. This might help recognizing the vendor.

More details, please... Have you tried interchanging inputs , for example connect camera with problem to an input which worked fine?

Could be, but as far as I know battery only supports real-time clock and has nothing to do with keeping settings.

Since you have a NoName DVR , it's impossible to identify it. There are two things to do: 1. try to connect via web browser (usually Internet Explorer). In LAN connection url should be something like this http://192.168.x.yyy(:ww) without brackets where x.yyy are two last numbers of DVR's IP address and ww is DVR's HTTP port if different from 80 otherwise can be ommited. 2. make a snapshot of the application window and send. Someone could recognize it.

I was absent for some time .. I use Hikvision's HiDDNS service, but I don't what's that got to do with my problem?

Simply, 5000 is not an HTTP port and it can not be opened by web browser. It is a port for mobile application, and the default HTTP port is 80.

Do the TVs in living room and master bedroom support FullHD resolution ? If not, set the NVR output resolution to HD (1280x720) and it will work on all TVs.

Try setting another IP address. Many router's DHCP servers start providing addresses starting from 10, so it's possible that 192.168.0.10 is already assigned to another device. Try some higher address like 192.168.0.200

Very probably not ! Most commercial RF modulators are made for composite video (PAL/NTSC) input and give analog TV VHF/UHF output. AHD is HD technology developed specially for video surveillance systems. But, if you have an AHD camera with double BNC output (both AHD and composite video) or AHD DVR with BNC composite output then you can use these signals to connect to RF modulator. Or you can use VGA to video converter and convert DVR's VGA output to composite video. All these solutions give worse picture than the original, D1 in best case.
