Ok well my problems with the digiop servers continue.....I got a second dvr for a second site this unit is all ip based. I am having major problems and the support has had me running in circles for weeks now with little answers or direction. Here is the setup Brand New dell digiop server...got 32 ip based cameras (or whatever is the max for the system) Using a mix of box and dome cameras...they are all digiop black ips103 and ipd103....I have a power over Ethernet switch working them I have 10 installed....less than half are working I have configured them all locally with static ip and powered them over poe while doing this...when I installed them they power up the indicator lights work fine and locally the video goes out of the camera on the video 2 av connection.... I have tested the network cables..replaced a few just in case...spent a few thousand on new poe dlink switches as recommended by digiop...nothing worked...sent them a camera and switch they confirm the camera is bad and send a new one to me.... I take the new camera set it up change the ip its all working...mount it on the wall its not working....it appears if i power the camera locally it works fine today I will try a poe injector and a few other things but I am ready to send the system back I have invested at least 40 working hours in the problems and just cant get a straight answer that fixes it....any ideas.... Note that the I have the same problem with multiple spots...multiple brand new cameras...new cables..long or as short at 5 feet....new switches......nothing works thanks

That would be great I did call support Friday and have not heard back yet I called again today trying to move it along. I appreciate your reply if this site has private messages I will send out my contact info to you thanks Rob

The strange part is locally the dvr is still running and recording just the network switches are flashing like something I have never seen before and I can not ping anything on the local network unless I do the restart or unplug the server

We have a digiop hybrid dvr on our network....it has 8 ip based cameras and 12 standard cameras. When on the system it appears the network activity spikes to the point where it takes all network equipment offline. This happens intermittently every few days...if I restart the server or just unplug the network connection the network comes back online. I have tried changing the ip to a private 192.168.x.x address as recommended by digiop suppot...also I have reinstalled the machine with no change...any ideas Robert
