    Looking for POE nest cam

    I’ll give it a shot. I get some sort of birds making nests up there every single year but the nests always crumble and the birds give up. This is also the only place I had a spare line run which isn’t in use haha.

    Looking for POE nest cam

    I used an old LaView LV-PWD50202-W (generic HikVision) and I took it apart and manually focused. Drilled the whole out of the ceiling of this Amazon bird house and put it under an eave.

    Looking for POE nest cam

    Hi all, I have a POE+ line ran out to a great place for a bird nest/cam but i already have a box built and ready to go. I really just need to know if there is a good POE camera available to purchase solo that has that perfect wide angle + close focus already good to go. All these pre-builts...

    iPhone 15 Pro Max problems with BI

    No update yet. Do not update to iOS 17 if you can avoid it. Aside from BI issues it’s a total piece of crap. Very buggy.

    iPhone 15 Pro Max problems with BI

    Not sure if it's specific to the pro max or all iPhone 15 models but can confirm with 2 other iphones on separate servers the app is having audio issues and will freeze after playing a couple recorded clips. Other various issues not worthy of mention right now. if anyone else is using iphone...

    What would cause this god awful noise ?

    I recently got the iPhone 15 pro max. I’ve downloaded everything in the app like I normally would but noticed when I play clips it makes this terrible noise at the beginning of every clip. The rest of the audio comes in fine afterwards but I can’t figure out what’s causing it. I went back to...

    I narrowed it down to an amcrest camera. When I disable it everything goes back to normal. I don’t know what setting is causing it to be problematic

    Stumped - internet speed nose dives

    I gifted my dad a brand new BI server and 5 cameras for his birthday. When I set everything up it was running speedy and for the first month I could remote into his PC with full speed and tweak things as necessary. Overnight, when I remote into his computer (and when he’s checking cameras...

    yeahI’ve been using it on my phone for years. Right now I’m away from home LAN. but usually as long as the IP is correct it will connect. All the ports are open and correct. I’m just trying to figure out what all is going on with the blue iris outtage and if it’s related.

    I'm trying to use the BI app on my iphone and it wont connect. IP addresses are all correct and i disabled "lookup at login". I tried to refresh IP on my PC from within BI software and it just says "trouble retrieving IP Address". Is this all related to the BI server problems?

    Is my network setup ideal?

    Oh ok. I just YouTube’d a tutorial on how to assign an ip to the new NIC. I’ll have to try this later thank you. This networking part is new to me

    Is my network setup ideal?

    I think I figured it out. I think I have to plug my camera POE switches into another router and configure that dhcp server to have different ip addresses than my main one. Once the cameras are mapped on their new IPs I then plug my new NIC port into that new router. I assume at that point I...

    Is my network setup ideal?

    I installed the NIc to my PC tonight and have everything wired as aforementioned. however, now all my cameras are not showing in BI. I think i'm missing a step. Now that this switch is plugged directly into the new NIC, who or what acts as a DHCP to assign IPs to the cameras? thanks in advance!

    Is my network setup ideal?

    AH... marvelous. Can you recommend a good NIC for my BI Server? I'm not sure if i should get a USB one or PCIe? Thank you!

    Is my network setup ideal?

    If the cameras have no internet access how do you prefer to set/sync their time? (assuming they can no longer ping an NTP)

    Is my network setup ideal?

    Ahh This makes sense. Ok so I need another NIC for my PC to do this no problem. The benefit of this is not performance but security ?
