Just for completion . . . . it turns out that the issue with the camera was firmware. After agreeing to a reduced price for assistance, the provider investigated my network (remotely) and discovered there wasn't anything wrong . . . . except that the wifi camera needed a firmware update. Once they d...

Pogo, Yup . . . . you found the camera I purchased. Contacted them today and explained the challenge and plead my case. We shall see where that leads to. The Dahua N41BD42-W looks and lists features exactly like the one I've got. I presume this wouldn't need to "phone home" via internet li...

No . . . not my camera. That is a PoE camera, 8 MP . . . . mine is truly a wifi camera and only 4 MP. It does pick up sound, but doesn't have a speaker. No light nor sound sirens. Excellent night vision. Seems to be good quality when functioning. I would like to primarily access the camera with BI. ...

You are correct, this is from CCTV CameraWorld. The Port scanner can see ports: 80, 110, 119, 143, 554, 563, 993, 995 . . . when ethernet is connected. Hmmmm, I now see that not only port 80, but also port 554 disappears when it is connected only by wifi: 110, 119, 143, 563, 993, 995. BI can find po...

I'm not sure what is going on. I used BI recommended port scanner and found an interesting observation. When the ethernet is plugged in . . . . port 80 (and many more ports) is seen. However, when it is unplugged . . . . port 80 goes missing, but the remainder are still there. On my LAN router I've ...

Well . . . . this camera has an IP address for ethernet and an IP address for wireless. I can access the camera via either IP address using a web browser as long as the ethernet is plugged into the camera. The moment it is removed, then the wireless IP address no longer responds to a web browser. Re...

I've recently installed Blue Iris to access my first IP camera. It is an IPC WC4MP (Avalonix) camera in which installation first uses wired ethernet access to setup wireless access. Everything seems to go as planned, including seeing the IP address of wireless camera on my LAN even after disconnecti...
