    3 hours at this..At my wits end.. Xfinity and port forwarding

    You are correct. I tried to do that but they penalize you enough to make it not worth it. I think it forces you on to a data plan. Lame.

    3 hours at this..At my wits end.. Xfinity and port forwarding

    FYI, I have BI on another computer using my own router and have never had issues opening ports....ever.. Now, I have a new windows 11 pro machine with Blue iris running perfectly. Cameras are setup and the HD is recording fine...all is good. This unit is at my house in utah that uses...

    OMG, Xfinity Gateway WILL NOT open the port

    Thank you, that does make some sense. Althought the varied IP's are a little hard to grasp since I only get the one stated on the Open Port tool, is the service provider hiding another number behind that maybe? The router I have is a modem/router combo from Xfinity. I think we opted for the...

    OMG, Xfinity Gateway WILL NOT open the port

    So after 3 hours...yes, 3 hours and most of it on the phone, Xfinity Gateway cannot open the ports for me to access Blue Iris. Does anyone have a solution to a router that will not allow port forwarding. I can do this easily on other providers like Cox and Century Link but this system only uses...

    Cant change IP. What am I doing wrong? EmpireTech Security Camera Outdoor 4K Full-Color 2×4MP Dual-Lens 1/1.8"

    Thanks everyone. The quick solution was to set the camera to DHCP then reset it. Find it on the network and then change the IP. I still cant figure out why I had to do that step before changing it.

    Cant change IP. What am I doing wrong? EmpireTech Security Camera Outdoor 4K Full-Color 2×4MP Dual-Lens 1/1.8"

    I cannot change the camera IP address and have no idea why. At my other house the default IP address is 192.168.1.1. and I have changed the IP on a few new upgraded cameras I bought for there last month. At my place Im at now its 10.0.0.1 Xfinity is the internet provider. I can find the camera...

    Quick question about old DS-2CD2112F-1 cameras. Finding the IP

    I havent used these in years and Im hooking them up in another location different from where they were before. After plugging them in to the old TP-Link switch I cant find the IP address on my local network, it doesn't even show up. I can verify the cameras are powered on and I can see other...

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Has anyone tried to put an absorbant pad inside these to help the issue? Similar to those in boxes when products are shipped? EDIT: I just ordered some 2 gram silica gel packets. Ill see if I can get it in there and make it work.. if thats the problem

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Interesting. The first pic has that blur I see on the whole image with mine. Is there any fix or adjustment to it? I already tried the settings in the camera web interface and cant change it.

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    One more thing I just noticed that I've never seen as a big deal but now is a good time to ask. The time is off between the camera and BI. I check a box that syncs the time when Im in the web interface for the Dahua camera. It seems like a one time sync. Is there a selection that keeps the...

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Im thinking this might be the case. Did the dome look clean when it was really dirty? Mine looks clean

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Thanks for the replies. The camera is mounted outside on a wall bracket. When I wiped the dome the inside looked clean but I didnt take it apart and clean. Will do that next. I attached a day time photo. The camera is a Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Whats this called and how to fix? Dahua SD22404T-GN

    Attached a pic. Not sure if this is called blurred or halo or ? Its a general fuzzy picture day and night. Great camera and only a few months old. I just put it at this location recently but the camera seems to be 'fuzzy' regardless of outdoor lighting. The dome is clean too.
