Can anybody help, I've e-mailed Speco 3 times asking for a tech or rep in my area, Gatlinburg TN, and have not received a singel response?? I purchased a 2nd home and it has a Speco CCTV system and I can only view it at the unit....nowhere else in the cabin or over the internet. I'll gladly pay to have it set up but don;t now who to call.....my alarm folks already tried so no luck there. Anybody know a person that can work on Speco units or even a rep in the knoxville TN area?

Holy Crap!!!!! I get up this morning and first thing again I can not access my DRV at our cabin. I get to the log in screen enter my logia dna password and it comes back with a message "failed to login" Any ideas? Why is this new Dell causing such a problem....I can still access it on 2 lap tops just not my home desktop

I just purchased a new computer and I can not log into my CCTV DVR at our vacation home. I can log in on my wifes computer so I know it's a matter of getting it set up. I've gone into the security settings and "enabled" activeX, the same as I did with my oldl computer. This is driving me crazy. I can get to the log in prompt and after entering the usernams and password it says "log in failed" I am running windows 7 on both computers. My new computer has standard and 64 bit Explorer and I've tried both. Any suggestions??

Sorry but I don;t know much about Cipher strength what I do know is that in my start menu when I open up the Internet Explorer (64 bit) I can not access my CCTV but when I open the other Internet Explorer in the start menu, shows 256 under properties, then I can access my CCTV system. Honestly I don't know the difference I just know it took me a couple of weeks to discover this and Dell Tech never did try it....and now I can access my DVR Maybe this will help somebody down the road

Got it working - I worked with Dell tech support for 4+ hours over 2 days and finally can view my CCTV system on my new computer. They tried everything, took the computer back to factory settings, reloaded all software, researched the error messages and then were trying to give up saying it wasn't the computer. I kept telling them the remote access worked on my lap top and also on the desk top the new computer replaced..... Bottom line while on hold with a supervisor I tried it on the IE 256bit version enabled the Active-x, paused all security and the remote access loaded. I now have full access as long as I use the 256 version of IE....the 64bit version will not access. I will say Dell tech support worked very hard trying to assist

tried it...nothing.... doesn't even go to the log in screen. I have the CCTV system on 3 other computers but the crazty thing is I can't get it to work on my new desk top home PC. I really believe I have a software issue with this new Dell computer I can't get the DVR to load, have had trouble with e-mail, outlook keeps giving me an error message......what a pain this new computer has been

can't get my remote DVR access to load on a new computer I get the following eror message res://ieframe.dll/acr_error.htm#,http://68....... which I believe is part of the problem....any ideas?

this is the error message I'm getting - really driving me crazy, today I deleted my security removed programs disabled everything...still nothing res://ieframe.dll/acr_error.htm#,http://68 I did try running IE as the admin....no go I found out my new computer is running IE windows 9

I have the CCTV installed on 3 dell lap tops and the desk top I had before I purchased the new Dell unit. All run IE with windows 7 32 bit....I also tried the 64 bit version. Sorry but what do you mean "run standard IE as the admin? Thank you for the response

I have a Speco DRV that has a Seagate ST3160815A 160 GB hard drive and I'm only getting about 4 days recorded....This is at a vacation place so would like to get about 2 weeks if possible. What hard drive would I get to be a replecement that would get me something like a 1TB of storage? Thanks in advance Greg

now I understand SATA is a plug and IDE is a ribbon it may make more sense to just purchase a new recorder with the proper size HD

OK now I understand?? sorry but what did they say? since my current HD is 160, I'm sure 500 would be good if that is the recommended size... can somebody recommend a replacement hard drive? model manf..

I purchased a cabin with a CCTV system that I can only view at the DVR. I had both the alarm and the cable tech's look at the system when they came out but neither knew how to make it so I can view either wirelessly at the cabin or prefered over the internet from my primary house. So I'm trying to educate myself.....any help would be greatly appreciated My system is a Speco DVR-4TN/160 I have Charter cable supplied internet I've been told I need a static IP so I signed up for a Dynamic DNS hostname through DYN.com my problem is the previous guys tried so much the settings on my DVR are a mess - can anybody help me understand what the following means or is pointing to 1. DHCP ON 2. IP 192.168.0.7 3. Netmask 255.255.255.0 4. Gateway 192.168.0.1 5. DNS 24.159.64.23 none of these match the router or the open router port?? thanks in advance for the help

the DVR does have a field of view adjustment......what does that do?

Can bullet camera"s be adjusted? motion or distance? I have a Speco DVR system with 2 Speco HT-7716 camera's and one needs to be zoomed out and with the other records everytime a bug fly's by, their set to record motion. They are at a cabin we have and I had them set to send an e-mail when there is an event, actually recorded a bear, but I've turnd the e-mails off because I was getting 20 or more per night. Thanks in advance for any help Greg

honestly since I'm a beginner I'm not sure there were a number of points he had me work on - the DVR was giving an address of .com instead of .net so he had me update the software (this took aminute to realize it was addressing itself wrong), change it from port 80 to port 100, reset the trigger and ports on my router and run the ez-ddns over and over until it all worked. Along with a couple of calls with Speco to be sure they could see the unit. Once it listed the unit as a .net it was a matter of getting the Comcast router to see the unit and my computer to get the address. . I believe with the unit being a TN series, discontinued, and me not having any of the factory disc didn't help because once he discovered it had named tself as .com then we had to get the unit to talk to the router so it could update itself. All in all it took a bit of time and a lot of patience with a beginer on this gentlemen's part to get the unit up and running

Thank you for the reply's but the issue has been resolved.....a great guy form a Security company in Knoxville e-mialed me his phone number and offerd to assist. We probably spent 2 solid hours trouble shooting and he even conatcted Speco a couple of times and called me back....in the end I can now view it at my primary residense. Having a person offer so much of their time to help me on this after the others either failed or wouldn't even get back to me really helps to remember that there are good people still around that are willing to help others in need. I greatly appreciated his help " title="Applause" /> " title="Applause" />

anybody know how to change the router in the system on a Speco 4TN/160 DVR? I know how to go through the menus and when it comes to router there are 3 listed but none are my cable modem and I don't know how to change it. The manual does not detail this thanks in advance for any help

My Speco DVR is connected by a cat5 cable to my Charter internet modem. I unplugged it and plugged in my lap top and nothing. Should the picture on the monitor attached to the DVR show when I plug it into the lap top?

I reset it as directed ending in .200 and reset the modem as well....still nothing I get a black screen and a prompt to install activeX whihc my computer will not do since it doesn't recognize the sender. also what is the DDNS setup I've tried setting it to yes and no....no differe under LAN setup it has a tab for router setting and the second option is current router but it will not let me change it...it's showing D-link which I assume was what the previous owners had

I just tried and can't access anyting from my primary home, so it will be 2 weeks before I can go back to the cabin and will try it again......this really shouldn't be this damn difficult....hope everything stays secure. thanks for the advise

thank you for the response While working on this over the weekend I tried the IP 192.168.0.7 on my lap top and while it did get me to a black screen listing camera, after dropping all security on my lap top ( microsoft security kept saying could not open from a unknown source), I never did actually see anything from the camera's> I thought I was getting close. I do not have a CD for the unit....I did print a copy of the manual which has gottne me to this point. So your saying the other numbers are assigned and I don't need to change them? To access over the internet would I set up the DYN account to look at 192.168.0.7? or the router IP?
