Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting this error wile trying to add attachments to my post? "Could not access ftp directory: 'attachments/thumbs'. Please check your FTP Settings."

Mabe you can try contacting these guys or take a look at the manual in the support section.. http://www.digitalvideos.co.uk/default.asp?txtaction=home

Take a look, I've used some of these for schools where we needed to cover the athletic field with no way to run cables to the main building. Works great. http://www.firetide.com/innerContent.aspx?taxid=6&id=50 http://www.videolarm.com/family_navigation.jsp?navigation=9

There is no problem converting BNC to RCA and running it to one TV. You can just use one of these. No additional equipment is required.

First thing you need to do is list what brand and model card you're trying to use so that someone might be able to help you. Most DVR cards work with the software that was provided with it, there really isn't any need to check device manager as long as you follow the directions that it came with unless it didn't, in that case I will simply send it back. Some cards require the installation of the software first before physically installing the card.

See if any of the TV's have a video out.

What's the distance between TV's?

There is no problem with the cable. Yes a amp will make a big difference. The problem you're experiencing results mainly from low signal. I've split video feeds with standard splitters and had no problems in some cases.

In theory, that shouldn't matter, as the power tranformers isolate the cameras from the DVR power ground. unless, of course, the camera chasis is attached to an earth ground... I think Its worth a try. I've had situations were cameras was powered locally using Isolated Transformers and still had image distortion and looping.

Just add a Distribution Amplifier and you'll be good to go.

Try powering the DVR and the cameras from the same AC outlet.

I've used many of these with great images, no problems. What type of cable "100' combined cable" are you referring to?

I have never done or seen it, but I'm sure it can be done with some sort of hardware configuration. I'll look arround and let you know.

Get a 9ch and you should be fine. Most standard displays are 4, 9,16.

You need a multiplexer.

Look at this. http://www.cctvforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=3287 Whats your internet type.

Exactly as I taught. As mentioned before you need to change the settings in the modem and the router for this to work, 10Min tops. You will need to be at the site to make these changes.

Your problem is with your setup. You need to set your DSL Modem to bridge mode and input your DSL User Name and Password in PPPOE settings n the router. Again i'm sure if you check the wan IP on the router it would be a 192.168.......

On the status page of the belkin. what is the wan IP Address? Forget about Ip Chicken for now.

I think you need to start from the beginning. 1. What is the problem you're having? 2. What Internet connection type are you using? 3. Is the public IP address set in the router? 4. Are you able to connect to the DVR locally through the client and IE?

1.You can use what ever port you like, but I recommend not using port 80. 2. In order to access the DVR through a web browser like IE the unit needs to have a built in web server. I wasn't able to find any info on that unit so I'm not sure what it's capabilities are, maybe you can post some specs or further info. Where are all these different brands popping up from?

That's just $#@%&(% brilliant, and guess what I tried it and it worked. Thanks Sir Flannel.

Depends on which DNS you're using, DynDns doesn't have a port redirect for the free accounts. I use no-ip.com and setup the DNS as a port redirect and it works great. This has only been done on PC systems where I have the client update running, never tried it on any standalones. P.S. There is no need to setup the DNS in the DVR's, use the settings in the router for the DNS and make sure your ports are forwarded properly.

Why would the client work then? I get login failed on that also Login Fail on the client doesn't mean you made a connection. What happens when you use IE?

Yes. I've seen this before. The two things I know of that cause this, is the Block Anonymous WAN Request and Web Server on Port 80.
