I had an older camera 2CD2143G0-I that works perfectly fine, before it was removed. I installed a 8MP in its place and decided to use this in-place of a basic 4mp ip camera (1143G0). Since in NVR I have cameras setup in a specific order, I just updated the IP address of existing channel to this...

Do indoor Wi-Fi cameras working of your Internet need a SIM card to send live video footage to a phone?

Over the last couple of weeks, you may have seen a couple of threads here at the forum discussing new Hybrid Light cameras from Hikvision. The information we had on these cameras initially was quite vague but with the help of Hikvision Support we now have a bit of a better understanding of this...

I have an ankke system (dn18r annke) and 8 cameras connected. I have a 4g router setup next to it with an ether cable plugged into the dvr. I can obviously view my cameras when I connect to my 4g router and go to my dvr ip address (192.168.1.1xx:8080) but when I connect to my main wifi or on...

I've looked around and can't find definitive information on if this is possible and if so how. I have DS-2CE72DF0T-F cameras attached to a DS7608-NXI-I2/8P/4S. The white light attracts insects and spiders meaning I get a constant stream of false alarms every night. I cannot find any option to...

Many people are familiar with the term ‘security camera’ but are not quite sure what an ‘IP camera’ is and what ‘IP’ actually means. IP stands for Internet Protocol and is the standard that sends data across a network. Before the introduction of IP cameras, security cameras were all analogue...

Hi all, I have the same camera/firmware issue as described in this post but for some reason the easy refresh fix is not working for me - the result is the same with CTRL + F5 and full cache reset. https://www.use-ip.co.uk/forum/threads/hikvision-configuration-menu-jumbled.1338/ NVR model:-...

We are looking at setting up our own cctv setup. We are completely rural and would like something that can work in low light. We will be putting 1 up at the point of the gable end of the house to look over a building site (30m span) and another over the front door. We are running CAT6 cable to...

I was wondering if anyone can say from the photo I've uploaded of a front door spy-hole if it has been fitted with a video camera or if it's just a regular viewer? To me, it looks like there's a camera lens there? Is it possible to confirm this from the photo I've uploaded? Thanks in advance

Hi everyone: I'm sorry for posting this blunt question, but I don't know how else to explain it. Here's the recording from the surveillance camera that went from clear to whatever-its-doing now: I know that no one messed with it at that time. All I could see was that it was starting to rain...

I just purchased 2 more Hikvision DS-2CD2042WD-I 4MP HD cameras to match the one I have working already. I plugged them into my main, 24 port switch downstairs and configured each of them with unique IP addresses. I am also using injectors to power these POE. I was able to see them fine on both...
