I've had 2 cameras that have been running for several months and suddenly quit triggering. I haven't changed anything in either camera or program settings. I can log into the cameras from my phone and view the camera via the BI app running on an Android but they don't trigger. This camera has always...

My connectivity problem was my ISP defaulting my address back to "private" which caused the port to be inaccessible. Now I'm trying to tweak the camera settings to provide the clearest video stream. This camera Dahua model XYLH-VD-2FS81-S https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B082Y3BSP6/ref=pp...

I'm currently using the free version no-ip,com to keep the IPs updated. What would cause intermittent no connect when not on the local camera network? We had storms yesterday and I was expecting to find the system shut down or something obvious. The droid phone app connected normally as soon as I wa...

Cameras are working under port forwarding with no-ip.com after getting the ISP to make my IP public. Apparently, they run a proxy server and keep all of the customers IPs private. My next step is to get the cameras actually mounted instead of recording through a window. I want to go to a VPN at some...

The cameras have been running for days at home without problems. I plan on moving them to the country next week. The router provided by the ISP in the country uses dyndns.com to provide dynamic IP access. Might the ISP have access to the cameras? Of course, "I'm not doing anything to be concern...

Thanks for the help - much appreciated. Lots of learning curve to overcome. I can now take the system to the cabin and reconfigure it for that router which uses slightly different settings. I'll be able to see any critters deer, bobcat, racoons, skunks and two-legged thieves if they come into the ya...

Trying to get phone access when I'm not on the same network as the BI computer. I let the phone app populate the fields and can connect when on location/ Those same settings have never connected when off site. Sites like whatsmyip all give an IPv6 address. The BI software doesn't hold the v6 address...

I have access on my phone. It did cut off but I think the computer wend off line. I'll see what happens after tonight.
This computer is very laggy so I may have to buy something with more power. I want to explore the settings some more and learn my way around better.

I appreciate the help. This keeps getting put on the back burner but I have the computer and cameras set to static IPs and working. The next thing is to read through the documentation and figure out the phone app. The 1st run guessing at how to populate the app fields didn't work. More good news is ...

I think I have enough information to take the system out to the cabin. That router has a slightly different DHCP table but currently no other devices besides what I take in with me ie phone, desktop and perhaps my laptop. I'll give the desktop a static address and the cameras static addresses outsid...
