Hi Sportster, After all this time, I've figured out that I've had the Ethernet port of the DVR was plugged into one of the POE ports which is why it wasn't getting an IP address after all! I've got it to connect to VLAN10 but when I went to reset the system because I was that frustrated, all...

Hi Sportster, Here are the answers to your observations: I have been doing a lot of research into this but I think by the sounds of me doing this may complicate things but at least I'm learning from it. The switches and the router I assume are L2 compatibility, don't think they'll have L3. I...

Hi Sportster, I would be using the IEEE802.1Q as this will be the case across the network. I have made a simple network diagram with the hope of it being clear to understand. As you would see that I prefer to have the cameras on a different VLAN but I will be putting a rule in place to allow...

Hi Sportster, Thank you for responding to my thread. I do have another switch which is the TL-SG105PE which has VLAN capabilities and when I tried setting this up by configuring the main port to the infrastructure VLAN (VLAN1) which has the 192.168.1.x subnet, this allowed me to access the...

Hello, I am having network problems with NVR-108MH-D-8P. I have recently reconfigured our network to include multiple VLANs and reconfigured DHCP servers. The NVR used to be on the 192.168.1.x subnet and the IP address I set was static to 192.168.1.40. Now as I am planning to have the NVR set...

Hi Dan, Just to give you an update, with good and bad news! I have now managed to have the recordings working again but connecting this via my Synology NAS as NetHDD using the FTP connection. So far I have no problems with that, which I'm happy about but when it comes to the drive being full...

Hi Dan, I have already contacted the company about the situation but they have not got back to me yet. However, when I was looking on the main NVR interface, I've managed to find the logs for the HDD Error and the code was 0x8 repeatedly, so I suspect it means something because the HDD is still...

Just an update, I've rebuilt the database and completely format the disk because when I went to check the logs, there hasn't been a database rebuild since it was first setup. So I am assuming it got corrupted over time after numerous abrupt switch offs by mains power which meant certain bits of...

Hi Dan, I've provided a screenshot of this but it doesn't show any error codes other than the HDD being on Channel 1 whereas the cameras connected on a PoE on a channel called D1, D, D3 etc. I think I may need to factory reset it, but it's going to be a pain to reconfigure it as I've had it...

It's both, however the layout does look different from the HDMI display compared to the web browser. I don't think this would be anything to do with it? Thanks, Ben

Hello, We have a 8-channel HiLook NVR (Model: NVR-108MH-C/8P) with 5 PoE cameras connected on a separate PoE switch. It has been working very well for the past several months since it was connected. Now apparently, I am having issues with the HDD inside the NVR where it stops after a while...
