    Can not get NVR to communicate with the Web

    Hmm, if you have set the static using the mac, then maybe set the nvr to dhcp, that way it should get the right context for the network I would not attempt VPN till you have the basics right

    No signal for one of my cameras (hikvision)

    And you have not changed ANY of the default port settings? One fool wasted people's time recently about loss of access to a camera before the then asked if he should maybe go back to using the default port 80 and not one he had set for 'security'......

    two Hikvision cameras not being seen or recorded by Hikvision NVR

    1. Run SADP and see if that will see them 2. If you are 'sure' that is the ip of the unit, can you use a web browser to see them? And you don't kneed to block out the ip's, they are locally routed and not of use to any potential hacker.

    Should I get the Reolink RLC-423 or maybe Hikvsion DS-2CD2142FWD-is ?

    Hikvision Be aware if you do go for a PTZ that it may need additional IR lighting for decent night use, not all PTZ units have on board, and on a dome the placement may induce issues with IR bounce back from walls etc. I moved mine and replaced it with a Turret and am happy I did.

    VPN Problems via ASUS Router

    OK, how are you trying to reach your devices? I found this little snippet 10) Use the tunnel At this point, you are up and running! Remember that network browsing isn't supported. So you must reach LAN devices by IP address, not hostnames. If you're just accessing shared files, mapped drives...

    VPN Problems via ASUS Router

    Yup, figured that, it was more that it was pointing to a possible DNS issue, so maybe have a look at what settings they have for the dns under the vpn section, and I will have another look at the vid you suggested to see if it makes sense to me

    As a possible answer to ?1 for a friend I suggested a cheap android TV device connected to a tv that had Ivms4500HD installed, on this they see the cameras they want independent of the NVR. works for him

    Viewing Remotely from LAN not working, but is via WAN

    On an ASUS router there is a setting to restrict access to 'INTRANET' Could your router possibly have a similar setting? I found this out when the EXACT same symptoms occurred, WAN access fine, local nope, think this one was under wifi settings

    Motion Detection, Notifications & Multiple Cameras

    I'm sorry but you are confusing the hell out of me. What do you mean by HD? High Definition Post the details of your kit, model numbers etc, then we can figure out what you mean. If the cameras have an ethernet cable going to them, then it is a good bet they are IP cameras

That brand is not available where I reside, so I am not able to offer any suggestions, BUT I have read on here about them and it is not positive. I would be more inclined to look at the Dahua range to give you a...
