  1. CBX , The higher cpu utilization you noticed, is that with face recognition and/or plane traversal, on or off? All my cameras are at 5.1.6 and I have noticed more sluggishness in the menu pages but I have yet to use either of those new features. Also is your busybox for the hikvision cameras still available for download? I want to work on the RTSP feed for compatibility with Honeywell's Tuxedo Touch Panel. Steve

    Securing IP Cameras!

    bradyboyy88, Your initial post asked, "Now what I was hoping I could get help with is how to separate my home network from my ip camera network without requiring additional hardware." Did you actually wish to isolate the cameras from your home network? Because while your solution makes the cameras accessible over the net it does not provide any isolation of the cameras from your local network. I ask because many people seemed to be concerned by the recent disclosure of bad actors such as the LG "smart TVs" which have been caught shipping local network data overseas. To actually isolate them you would want them on there own switch and put a cheap firewall router between them and your net (the cameras network switch would be plugged into the routers WAN port). Effectively you would be masquerading all local network requests out to the cameras so your local access to them would be unaffected. It will make it a two step process to route from the internet into them. So it is a more complicated setup. Steve P.S. Many people have old WIFI firewall routers setting around that are slow but can be re-purposed to do the job. Just turn off the wifi so that it does not interfere with your current rig and just use the firewall/router part. These can also be had on ebay for cheap.
