  1. I'd rather keep the client out of the loop. I only had one call me and I talked him through it over the phone. How do I check the cache for previous ip's? I usually use pss which only has the domain in it. Either way, I think I'm screwed. Maybe I can drive by the clients house and try to reconnect to their wifi. It means more work for me, but I think it'll be worth it.


  2. If I know the ddns domain name of my customers DVR, is there way I can use IE to display the actual external IP numbers

    rather than the name of the domain? What happened was I was fooling around in my ddns website and I accidentally

    updated every customers IP to my modems IP address. And for some reason, the DVR's out there are not changing

    the IP to the ddns server. So, if I can manually enter the customers IP in the ddns website, they can log in remotely again.


  3. I have the 2mp version of this camera. Dahua makes a 1.3mp and a 600tvl analog version. I had a 1080P laptop logged in

    remotely to the camera and an hdmi from the laptop to a 55" LED hdtv and the image was absolutely stunning. There are two

    sets of IR's, one set for close up shots and one set for long range shots. The IR's know if your zoomed in or zoomed out. You can set guard tours and set up to 255 presets. You can even tell the IR's what time of day to come on or never to come on. It's the best camera I have ever used. I highly recommend it. But just make sure you have crazy amount of upload speed if you plan

    on remote viewing it. If you can't find them for sale anywhere, send me a PM and I'll see what I can do for the amount you want.

  4. Without knowing the resolution capability of the DVR itself, that camera you linked will be much better than the ones

    in the kit. A camera is only as good as the DVR. If the DVR streams and records at a low resolution, the camera will look

    like it has low resolution. As far as night vision, that sony effio will produce a much better image than those in the kit.

    And as far as compatibility, any analog camera will work with any analog dvr.


  5. Why not simply ask the owner of the building to contact the architect and ask him what he recommends. Or, if you are bidding on

    the job, ask the owner what the other companies plan on doing to mount a camera on his glass building. And I would think, if it's

    100% glass, it's very cosmetic and the owner of the building wouldn't even want cameras mounted on his beautiful building. Like

    I said, I would check with the owner before I start even thinking of ideas on how to mount a camera on his beautiful glass building. But that's me?


  6. You need to tell us a bit more info. How many TV lines is the camera,420tvl, 550tvl, 600tvl, 700tv.? What resolution setting do you have in the DVR, D1, CIF, QCIF? What type of cable are you connecting your Monitor to the DVR, hdmi, coax, vga? And lastly what size is the monitor, 15", 20", 55"?


  7. My laptop has an SS for the primary and a regular for storage. The SS drive and the 3rd gen I7 chip makes everything super

    fast. PSS runs very smoothly with a bunch of other programs running along with my torrents. If you can go SS, definitely

    get one.


  8. If it's impossible to put the wire directly to the camera in seal tight or pipe, than like said previously silicone works wonders. Sometimes I put the connections inside a ziplock bag, close it up, tape it up, than silicone the end. But and outdoor weatherproof

    box with gaskets always works well for future servicing so you don't have to scrap the silicone off if you need to service.
