    Error: 8000007a (Check Port/User/Password)" error message Dahua Cams Only! Annke and Reolink are OK. The only change was BI update to version 5.9.9.43

    Yes, I don't use auto but when offered usually just click yes. They seem to update every other day or every day.

    Hi I am such an idiot. In the frenzy to fix this even before posting I had swapped the PWs in BI. I only have 2 Dahua cams but somehow swapped the PWs after the update when I could not get the cams back online. Will note your suggestion for future reference as I am sure it will happen too. My...

    Thank you. I would be lost without you and this board! Where to find the ONVIF PW tab?

    I'm clueless. What does mapping failed mean and how to fix if that is the issue?

    Just updated to BI version 5.9.9.43 (4/25/2025) and got a "No Signal" message but only for my Dahua 5442 cams. Annke and Reolink cams experienced no issues. I logged into each Dahua cam by IP address and they work fine. What to change in BI to fix this? They are configured as Generic/ONVIF with...

    POE Splitter Recommendation

    NETGEAR 8 Port PoE Gigabit Ethernet Easy Smart Managed Essentials Switch (GS308EPP) - with 8 x PoE+ @ 123W Am running the above switch. I would like to run 2 Daiwa 5442’s without running 2 separate ethernet cables from the switch to each cam. So the idea of a 2 port splitter comes to mind...

    Any Idea how to get an IP cam working with a range extender?

    Is it even possible? Tried with a Netgear range extender and a Trendnet injector. Both are known to be working. I set my cam with a static IP address. But seems the cam is being assigned a different IP address by the range extender. SI can't detect the cam with either IP address. I cant...
