    NVR robbing network speed?

    I can't even get this stupid LAN2 to work. I can't find a tutorial online. I can't find it in the ubiquiti controller - and ubiquiti changes their interface so often, I can't find a tutorial on youtube. Ofcourse, ubiquiti also does not have a customer service telephone number - all I have is a...

    NVR robbing network speed?

    @bigredfish I'm looking into my Ubiquiti security gateway - and I notice that I have another WAN/LAN available to me... do you think throwing the NVR exclusively on this will help?

    Here is the topology of the network - please note: the NVR is currently unplugged, but would normally be in line with the AP's.

    NVR robbing network speed?

    I don't have a clue what a VLAN is - but they're on the same network? plugged into the same switch? I explained the "super slow" above. I also explained above - there is no one and nothing to my knowledge calling upon these cameras. my wife and I are the only ones with access - and neither of...

    NVR robbing network speed?

    Well guys, I recently upgraded my internet speed to a gig. I’m getting roughly 200-400 MBPS from the back of the modem hardwired. But my WiFi is super slow. Like 20 MBPS. this is slower than when I was on the 200 MBPS plan. Started doing some poking around - found that if I unplugged my NVR...

    IPC-T4831T-ZAS IR problems?

    Installed 8 of these cameras on a clients house yesterday - look how horrible the IR is. Is this correct? I notice some are reflecting off siding - but even the driveway shot is terrible. client is super unhappy. anybody have ideas? I clearly can’t leave it like this.

    Review-Dahua DB-11 Video Door Bell

    Bought one of these to test and put it on my house. this thing is terrible. It doesn’t save a single event. Don’t worry - it alerts me. But when I go to watch the video - nothing saves. additionally, no matter how I go about wiring it to my mechanical doorbell - it does not work. So now I’m...

    Also - here's another thing I see often, my wife doesn't claim any performance issues - but I often see my wifes phone connected to the USG, rather than connected to an AP - I would imagine this is weird behavior? shouldn't it be bouncing between AP's? not stuck at USG?

    yes, laptop is stationary - Laptop is rarely through VPN - but sometimes it is required. Speed tests on laptop come back good - and I don't experience any slowness in regards to general usage of the laptop - it is just when loading webpages - sometimes it stops and thinks for 30 seconds before...

    update: all in all, WiFi is wayyyyy better. The only real issues I'm experiencing are this: The PS4 didn't want to connect to WiFi, so I hardwired it. My laptop is super slow sometimes loading websites. It's very unusual - all other devices working quickly. Any ideas on the laptop? Using Chrome...

    Once I do that - does it move the channels for me? or I need to move them myself?
