Let us know how you get on with it.

I purchased the reolink doorbell camera after reading this and have not been able to get it to work with Blue Iris. I type in the ip address user and password but get nothing. I also can’t login to the camera through web browser. It says refused to connect. I can see the camera on my router. Not sure what to do. I tried using generic make also tried rep link with each of the different models. I can connect to it with the reolink app fine.

If you can't log directly in to the camera, then something is very wrong. I would start with sorting that as you need that working for BI5 to work. Once in to the camera menu, you would need to check that Onvif is enabled.

reolink ships w/ only port 9000 open which is for their apps.....You have to use their app to enable the web interfaces you want.

network, advanced, server settings.

That would do it. Thanks for responding. I remember I did have the android app so must have done that. Once I put the doorbell on a LAN with no internet access, I deleted the app.
