    NVR compatibility with Lorex cams

    Awesome! Thank u for the feedback. Lastly, this nvr seems to be much cheaper than the other dahua nvrs, but i cant seem to understand how come??? It still records in uhd, and still plays back in uhd, and has PoE ports...so why is this one inferior to a more expensive one?

    NVR compatibility with Lorex cams

    My bad if the answer to my question is posted elsewhere...i looked and didnt see it if its there. I have a very strict budget on a system and already have some lorex IP cams (lnb4421); will my IP lorex cams work with the nvr below? And if so whats the major trade-off going with this unit vs any...

    I said just record in 2k, but a 4k nvr is fine too bc i may get 4k cams in the future.

    Agreed! I have a very strict budget on this, will my IP lorex cams work with the nvr below? And if so whats the major trade-off going with this unit vs any of the lorex nvr's? All i am really looking for in my system is identifying within 15 yrds with exception of one cam that i need to identify...

    If you mean seeing the cams via their ip addresses, yes. I have a separate router for the camera system, but dont have a power supply for each one and not wanting to buy a switch bc i plan to get an nvr at some point.

    I agree with you on that. I want to add a dahua (or another decent) built in mic cam for our infant's room, do you know if dahua or another brand thats cheaper (only care for 720p or 1080p really bc i already have the infant ID'd at this point) that will play nice if i buy a lorex nvr to go with...

    View IP cams without internet on LAN

    When i had the borrowed lorex nvr attached and tried connecting via LAN and android Lorex Secure app (all on the same home network) it would never let me view live footage. It kept saying i didnt have an Internet connection. When i tethered a second cell phone to my home network for Internet...

    I appreciate the response. At this point i would rather get a dedicated box to hide in the closet. In my research it seems buying an nbr labeled dahua is cheaper than labeled lorex, presumably due to markup. But it also seems the software is manipulated just a bit by lorex. If i find a cheaper...

    View IP cams without internet on LAN

    I am new to security systems. I acquired 8 Lorex 4mp IP PoE cams and no NVR. I borrowed a Lorex NVR to play around with to see if i liked it enough to buy one to complete my system, but was unimpressed with it. My biggest beef was not being able to use the native android app to view the cams in...
