Axis appears to be discontinuing support for the use of 3rd party NAS accessed via the mobile Companion app. What alternatives do I have for a home system with 6 cameras, recording to a Qnap NAS, with remote viewing on my iphone? Thanks -

Very informative. What would your suggestion be to fix this?

I'm just having trouble grocking the tactical, physical placement. This is the setup: I'm hearing you say that I should put another Lightning Arrester between the PoE and the Existing Lightning Arrester. Conceptually, that make sense. Literally, would I screw the thing to the pole, connect one end of a copper wire to the grounding bolt on the arrester, and run the other end to the pole (and physically attach it to the pole)? Thanks.

All of the lightning arrestors mentioned and linked to here have a grounding lug. If the camera (and therefore lightning arrestor) is located ~100 feet from the house, to what would one attach the ground to? Attaching it to a ground rod near the camera seems to create a loop (two grounding rods in proximity to the house)... ? Thanks -

Hi, Have an Axis p1427-LE camera that needs to be positioned almost directly below a (somewhat dark) street light. Is it better to 1 - force cut filter to stay on, so it is in color mode 2 - go to day/night without IR 3 - go to day/night with IR 4 - go to day/night with external IR illuminator I've tried all, but with mixed results. I want to tweak settings, but start with the most optimal settings before messing with gain and things. Thanks -

Hi - Can the SONY SNCVB632D [https://pro.sony.com/bbsc/ssr/cat-securitycameras/cat-secnetfixedcams/product-SNCVB632D/] be used as an NVR, recording to a dedicated DVR rather than to a Windows computer? Thanks-
