    Dude relax. Like his updates have mentioned... when he gets caught up on existing orders he will will start making new invoices. He's human too and also has a life outside work. I'm waiting as well. Have patience.

    If you can pull cable do it. If you can't, hire someone who can. Sooner or later you will run into problems with Powerline.

    Is there a 1 to 2 option like this? A quick Amazon search came up empty.

    I agree. I have the 4231 installed in my garage and it's great. Highly recommend the camera. I am waiting for the 5231's for outside.

    Dahua NVR 5216-16P-4KS2

    Is Auto Maintain (Auto Reboot) found under Settings a reboot of the NVR or the Camera? Also why do you disable that feature?

    Do you guys use the Auto Reboot feature? By default mine is set for every Tuesday. What kind of setting changes should I be doing? Resolution rates, etc.

    Dahua NVR 5216-16P-4KS2

    Ok apparently I can only view recorded footage from the NVR itself. I was trying to view from a desktop via the web service page. That was confusing the hell out of me why I couldn't view recorded footage.

    Dahua NVR 5216-16P-4KS2

    It seems to work however (And I feel stupid asking this) but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to playback recorded footage. I have tried everything that I can think of... it was already set to continuous record (by default) and I see a solid green line for the camera per the times...

    Dahua NVR 5216-16P-4KS2

    Thanks Just skimming thru the manual I noticed something. On the the front of my NVR I see the Status light is blue. I looked in the manual and it says "The blue light is on when the device is malfunction." What does this mean exactly?

    VPN Primer for Noobs

    Is your network only at risk if you view from public wifi or a friends house (who may not have a secure network) Or are you at risk no matter what even when on the cellular network Just trying to understand.

    Question about system setup

    I have the dahua nvr5216-4ks2 and I have an 8 port Poe switch for my cameras. My main question is do I connect the NVR to the router directly and then the switch to the router directly? I've tried searching but that question still gets me. I wanna say that's how I do it but not 100% sure.

    VPN Primer for Noobs

    If I set up a VPN on my home network (for the security system) does every electronic unit that wants access to my wifi in the house have to then sign into the VPN? Or can it be configured that only my NVR need to be signed in. Just thinking that it's gonna be a pain for multiple members in...
