Ads1337 0 Posted September 17, 2018 I am setting up a CCTV system for a busy pub. I have an NVR and a dozen cameras throughout the building. I now want to give the door staff body cams. I had decided on Transcend DriveBody Pro 52 cameras as they are both decent quality and compact. It has integrated WiFi but it is for viewing on a single phone/tablet only (it acts like a router with a dedicated IP and DHCP). I then spoke to a Hikvision expert and she told me it was possible to connect Hikvision bodycams to an NVR using the WiFi as it's an ONVIF feed. The thing is I think the Hikvision body cams are too chunky and in your face; I like the subtle size of the Transcend. I have tried to connect the Transcend to my network using WDS on the router but I am either being a noob or it doesn't support this as I can see it but it refuses to connect (I have the MAC and security details so I don't think it's this). Does anyone know if the Transcend DriveBody Pro 52 is an ONVIF feed? If not I imagine there isn't any point trying to get it to connect to the network as the NVR won't recognise it? Has anyone "hacked" a DriveBody Pro 52 (changed the IP address, disable DHCP, make it work as a 'device' rather than a 'router', disable the auto disable timeout of WiFi etc.)? Any out of the box ideas or solutions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It will not connect again now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
