    Should I move up to a NVR after 16+ years?

    Oh I know the benefits of all IP. Its just going to take some time and money to slowly move over. But I have to say, my old Dahua and my coax has been flawless for years compared to people with wifi cameras having to swap batteries and no connections.

    Should I move up to a NVR after 16+ years?

    True. My CVI cameras are working ok and a few weeks ago I did just what you said and I bought a Reolink RLC-510A and a Netgear GS308EP switch just to see if it would work. Well it did. But since I have all this siamese coax run instead of cat6 it is going to be expensive to swap over to a new...

    Does this mean my Ezviz DB1 is toast?

    I am finding it hard to figure out which Ezviz doorbells can be connected to wires. And Amazon and Ebay has a pitiful selection to choose from. May have to go with another brand. I could go with Simplisafe to tie in with my alarm.

    Can the DB2 be wired to my existing transformer like the DB1? Manual shows it can.

    Does this mean my Ezviz DB1 is toast?

    Well shoot. I beat on it but no luck. I just had this same problem with a CCTV camera and hitting it worked. Guess I will be tearing into it to see if I can fix it. If not I will try to find a replacement here in the US.
