I am away from home and trying to access my cameras to see what hurricane Irma is doing. I must have been not paying attention and I typed the password wrong too many times. Now I am getting a maximum login attempts exceeded. Is there a time limit to retry from my IP address, or do I have to white list my IP from the house?

Thanks

There is a default time limit...its not long don't remember exactly...this is why you should have remote access setup with something like TeamViewer..

Thanks - it just let me back in. How is team viewer on CPU resources when it is idle?
 
I just had that happen to me, found that default was set to 3 attempts and block your ip address for 60 minutes. I have unticked the boxes and all ok now.

Don't uncheck them... they are there for security... increase attempts of you have an issue remembering your password
 
Hi, may I know where could we find the option to increase the attempts? I am using the latest Blue Iris and I have looked under "User" tab but found nothing
