Many thanks for the reply. I;m a windows user (although I have a mac that I struggle to get on with) I use FING as a network tool - but cant seem to locate what is causing the issue. My Router is set to allocate DHCP outside a set range as you suggest... Picture inserted / attached below

the Router logs have mutlitple entries for the time I get the Email from NVR. I've removed the actual MAC addresses from the entries below... 08:49:10 24 Dec. 2.4G client Mac: [mac address] Deauthentications (Reason:Class 3 frame received from nonassociated station) 08:49:08 24 Dec. 2.4G...

Apologies that was an autocorrect - the DHCP range is set to be outside the range I;ve allocated as static IP's So my range is 192.168.1.1 to 150 for static - then 192.168.1.150 onwards is the DHCP range on the router

Hi. Thanks for prompt response. It’s a standard bt hub (2 I think) I will check but I’m sure I’ve set the echo range to exclude the range I’ve allocated manually to cameras. Is there a way to identify the conflicted ip address.

Hi. Relative newbue here. I have a16ch Hik nvr with about 10 cameras connected via network (as in not connected directly to the nvr ports ) The Hik cameras have static ip assigned And most of the time all works fine. Randomly I then get an ip conflict error. I can’t work out what is...

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Your solution has some merit, but I should have explained myself a bit more detail. I want to work out the correct focal range, so that I can then purchase the correct focal lens (4mm 6mm 12mm) camera. if anyone knows how to tell the lens on the varifocal...

Hi, I have a varifocal camera and wondered if there is a way to use the camera to help understand what focal length camera would work. So I was thinking rig the VF camera up, adjust focal length, and then see the focal length (by taking a snapshot or some other way?) There doesnt seem to be a...

Thanks, has anyone got this to work and figured out what the file name needs to be?

Hi I wanted to swap out a camera for like for like and saved the configuration of the camera. Installed the new one and tried to load the old config, but just get a failed message. Its not the password as I deliberately entered a wrong password and get a different error. I've save to the...

Thanks for this, a very useful guide. Is there a way to use an iPhone to help understand the image you might get depending on the focal length of the camera? On my iPhone 12 Pro, I can take a variety of zoomed in photos and then get the Focal Length from the photo. I understand that a 35mm...

JB1970 Thank you so very much, I didnt have the "> Notification > Enable "Receive events and push notifications" ticked. I thought this was for pup up banners etc. Again, thank you it is appreciated.

Thanks fullboogie and apologies if I caused any offence. I do appreciate the expert advice that this forum can offer, sometimes an expert viewpoint can avoid hours or trying this and that. I guess thats why its a forum rather than a manual! I hope that as my knowledge increases I can offer...

Hi - has anyone any suggestions on this? Version of Hik Connect on my phone is V3.4.106 build 191009

Hi "notify surveillance center" is now ticked and I have had some alerts but I still cant search some events. I know its triggering events as i have the option "send email" set, and I receive emails, so it must be something else Any other suggestions?

Hi, No that option isnt ticked, let me try that and see what happens. Thanks
