The other day I had both cameras fail and guessed it was the Access Point but after closer look it appears to be the cameras. Looking at the Amcrest IP cameras I'm wondering if the IP4M-1028B camera will fit the bill. A very important feature I must have is the ability to turn the IR lights on/off ...

That suspicious address may be a hack to your camera. P2P is a somewhat more s...

tward392,
I don't know what your experience level and CPU load is with Blue Iris. But try setting Blue Iris setting to "direct to disc" for your camera, and in-camera setting to 15 fps. I suggest you search for Blue Iris forums where you'll find lots of BI information and help.
