I use a Synology and I have the Surveillance Station recording 24/7 and after a given time,those files are over written. I don't need to be able to view those recordings outside my LAN,but I would like to view them from the ASP if I needed to. As of now I can view the Cameras in ASP,but to see the a...

I have seen how to set up the Cams to use my NAS to view recordings,but I assume that's for the recordings done by camera settings. I have my NAS taking care of my recordings,so the camera doesn't do it. Can I view the recordings on the NAS in ASP?

Ok,after using the new Connectors,I was still getting an error on pin #3. I then decided to just get into the attic and trace the wire. I discovered that some how or another the cable had a tear in the sheathing and I could see the broken wire. It could have been because a month or so back,I was in ...

I run Cat6 when I wired the house and the router is a year old. I did run power from the injector to the jack that feeds the camera and that's when I don't get video. I made a T568B cable to see what happens and when I tested it,I wasn't getting any activity on pin #3 which is the green/wht wire. No...

Got a a chance to make new 568B cable and run it to the Amcrest camera straight form the POE injector,and all was good. When I used the jack in the wall with the same cable,then no video. Seems that their is some sort of issue there. No big deal since I'm going to replace it all anyways.

Well,I'm going to just redo all the wires with T568B to see what happens. Seems Hikvision uses the T568A protocol so I'm going to just redo all the ends to get some uniformity. That will help keep me from missing a A and B protocol.

I'm using IP8M-T2499EW Cameras. After making a T568A cable,I am now getting video. I am wondering if maybe the connections that were made on T568B cable that isn't working are not making a good connection. Maybe good enough for the Hik Cam since they are 3mp but not good enough for the Amcrest which...

Well,I guess that the Hikvision Cams use T568B and Amcrest uses T568A protocol because I now have video after making an A cable.

I am having an issue with the 2 new POE cameras that I purchased and I need your guys input. I am currently running 2 Hikvison 3mp cameras without any issues, Those cameras are connected to the POE switch by Cat6 cable. I purchased 2 Amcrest cameras and when I connect them to the same cables running...
