    Zerotier Blue Iris

    If it’s like Tailscale have you tried using the dns address that gets configured? I have Tailscale and using the dns address automatically enables the vpn and allows me to connect.

    Camera reliability?

    I’m not saying any such thing, the clue is in the word maybe? As an engineer are you not in the least bit curious as to what might be wrong with the cam(s)? Open them up and see if there’s anything obvious that you can see?

    Camera reliability?

    Maybe the firmware is corrupt, have you tried updating the firmware with the cam sat on your bench with a known good Ethernet cable?

    Camera reliability?

    Don’t think I can be bothered to read the entire thread but what config did you or do you use in your cams and the cams that failed?

    That’s the side that we drive on here in the UK?

    CCTV cameras disconnecting after a couple of days

    Why would you want your cams to have access to the internet?

    Camera reliability?

    The Engineer field must be special? I work in IT and never ever mention it as frankly I find it embarrassing [emoji3] and the instant I mention it people want their old clapped out PCs fixed [emoji3]

    blue iris motion sometimes not detecting

    Maybe increasing the contrast/brightness and/or gain might help as the screenshots just look way too dark to me?

    Camera reliability?

    And breath ..... :) I got my Dahua 5231-ze cams back in 2019, so 4 years old now. Plan was to replace them as they died with newer models but the damn things just keep working. With them now being 4 years old and counting, if they started dying would I contact Andy, yep I would but to ask for...

    New IPCT442t ze s3

    I’ve also got 6 5231-zero cams on duty but although I had the itch and replaced the pair up front I’ve resisted and will replace them as they go to cctv cam heaven [emoji3]

    New build CAT6 camera cabling through a wall

    You can get plasterboard which has insulation attached and can also be foil backed but no idea if that is what the OP is going to use.

    New build CAT6 camera cabling through a wall

    Personally I’d run all the cabling in trunking so if the worst happens at least you have a slim possibility of being able to pull a cable through if one gets damaged. Although the dab method will provide a gap you can’t rely upon that if you need to replace the cable as you don’t know if the...

    Writing to two HDs

    Personally I would just write straight to the target NAS, even more so if the storage areas that you are moving between are on the same NAS. Why faff around with moving data around?

    Giving up on PC + Blue Iris- should I try an NVR?

    He was replying to your everybody knows windows systems restart by themselves statement and if you truly believe that or have experienced it then it does sort of show that haven’t really configured windows to stop this?

    Giving up on PC + Blue Iris- should I try an NVR?

    My BI PC has never spontaneously rebooted but there again I did do some googling on how to block updates and driver updates?

    I hate my Dahua's Motion detection / IVF. Is there anything better?

    I would do something like this, you need you leave areas where the cam can detect something moving from one area to the next. My 2 driveway cams haven’t missed a trigger when I least reviewed them, also if possible and you have another cam overlooking that area think about group triggers/alerts...

    Robbery in Habana Vieja

    It could have been her local neighbourhood where up until this moment she felt comfortable? That’s certainly how I felt before getting mugged [emoji3]
