    Nvms 7000

    Trying to set this up remote viewing on my Mac desktop. I have the IP address of the NVR which says it is 192.168.1.101 and I have tried port 8000 and it fails. Is this possibly a port forwarding issue with my router? It is a linksys and I this is something I know nothing about. I have watched...

    Put the hard drive in the NVR from Milk and hooked up the cameras from Netview and everything works perfectly no language or software problems whatsoever. NVR is much quieter than my DVR cable box that is in the same room too! Software on the NVR is truly plug and play just as milk said.

    Camera placement help

    I am going to start running ethernet cable for my four 2332 turret cams and have questions about locations to get the best views. I live in a long ranch house with lots of windows but only two doors. It has a 26 by 32 ft detached garage/shop that sits just to the side and behind the house. The...

    No CH in serial number and Netview states the specifics of their cameras in their listings along with the warranty. You have to look at the specifics of each seller click on the 26 sellers to the right and look for Netviews listing on page 2 and description of the product...

    Cable question

    Plan on running in conduit underground so thats what I was thinking as well.

    Cable question

    I have heard of quite a few people doing just what you did with no problems. I was thinking of running regular cat5e inside the conduit and my little brother the telecom salesman told me I shouldn't do that due to moisture. Is there any reason to use either unshielded or shielded in this...

    Cable question

    Looking at finalizing my material list for my camera installation. Some of my runs may be outside in conduit so I was going to use direct burial cable. Any thoughts on this cable choice pro or con?http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=102&cp_id=10233&cs_id=1023305&p_id=12727&seq=1&format=2

    General NVR question

    Thank you for expelling that I did not realize what the connection was. So the eight channel would be more than sufficient.

    Netview says their 2year warranty is through them not Hikvision like the other resellers that offer products to the DIY market.

    General NVR question

    I was told something concerning the Hikvision NVR's and was wondering if it is in fact true. I was told that if you are considering the DS-7608 series NVR and plan to run more that 5-6 cameras that you are better off with the DS-7616 series that also has 8 poe jacks because of the difference in...

    Just installed first 2332 - Where do I set the Camera name?

    I see you have the camera named and the picture looks fantastic! I assume this is a 4mm as well? I see you are working on viewing them on a Mac laptop. I am going to be faced with the same problems as i am using an IMac desktop. Are you using an NVR as well?

    Just installed first 2332 - Where do I set the Camera name?

    That looks excellent! Where else are you putting cameras ? I have a ranch and have been struggling with camera placement to cover the doors and other areas. I also like your Life is Good sign! That is my 84 year old fathers favorite saying!

    Amazon/hikvision

    I was looking on Amazon for the Netview cameras and found some 2332's that were from them and fulfilled by Amazon. I did not see anything on the page that indicated that they were export models for the USA. I may have missed something do you have any contact information or anything that can...

    Just installed first 2332 - Where do I set the Camera name?

    Sorry I can't answer the question but excellent picture quality and good view of the drive and yard! Is that 2332 with a 4mm or 2.8 mm lens? and is the camera mounted to the overhang or the side of the house?

    Installation on Brick/Stone?

    I have the same issue at my house but I still have to run all my cables. I am an electrician by trade and I hate how a surface mounted box looks and the other camera mount looks commercial instead of just bad. The fact that many on this forum claim that you can fit the wiring into the base of...

    Detached garage

    Thanks Fenderman, thats kind of what I have gathered by reading through the different threads. My biggest concern was being able to get everything to work together properly. I have some computer experience but no networking experience. The other downside for me is the fact that in the last...

    Detached garage

    Well I thought I was all prepared to pull the trigger on an 8 channel POE Nvr and cameras. Then the confusion set in about camera placement. Two of the locations that would give the best views on the back and side of my house would be locations on my detached garage. I also think it would be...

    LTS and Hikvision question

    It is my understanding from reading many posts on this forum that LTS equipment is basically rebranded Hikvision equipment. I am currently considering the LTN8708-P8 nvr and the Hikvision DS-7608NI-SE8P nvr. These two units look nothing like each other and I am wondering what if anything other...

    Newbie with a ton of questions

    The only issue I feel I really need to address now is the camera placement. I have a very rectangular ranch house, the driveway goes down one side of it and dead ends into my shop/garage approximately 24 feet behind the house. If I run direct burial cat5e out to the garage I can place one camera...

    Newbie with a ton of questions

    Yep! There are some great folks with some good advice and connections on this site. Current pricing on the NVR is 229.00 and the Cameras are 119.00 which I think is pretty good for the warranty and the US firmware. Supposed to be plug and play. I have enough Amazon points to pick up a 2TB WD...
