@user_822884704698612_822884704698612 Need more details on how its connected? using POE switch? You cant see your DHCP table within your router? There should be a list of connected clients within the router.If you could bring the camera down plug it up closer to the router with a short drop cable, that will confirm is there is a faulty cable or cam.
@joseph_1979 I think ReoLink banks on being affordable (hardware cost and no subs) and a very basic amount of features. There are times when I have thought about spending the money $$ on more expensive cameras and NVRs to get the "current" basic features. I have a mixed bag of cameras on my home for testing. I'm trying to figure out which brand I want to stick with. Fully customized motion zones. Not a do not record painting feature. WDR/HDR. Fully customized scenarios. At least give us a all cam motion display section within the phone app when connected to the a NVR/HH. When I click on the NVR/HH through the phone app, all the cams should live feed. All these are normal features within 2025.I know they showed in a previous expo show that they had full motion zones displayed. I think that was like 2 years ago. just silence. Reolink has been out far too long to take this long for basic features. If they need help testing and QA this stuff, I'm game. I literally worked for a large manufacture doing this stuff. I want ReoLink to succeed, I think they have great products.
@davideotto No hard drive or POE. is the gist.I prefer the RLN36 over the Home Hub cuz you can add 3rd party cams to it per ONVIF or RTSP. When you add cams to the Home Hub the Cams GUI gets locked.
You should be able to add a camera through the NVR GUI or the Reolink APP.Restricting it to the hooking it up to a monitor is out dated. The NVR's GUI that shown through the monitor should be close to what the web GUI looks like.Thanks,Jeff
Super awesome footage dude!
I think you need to look at what you are needing.Ultra wide is ultra...wide. But it usually has a very small vertical FOV. Unlike the 1240A, which had a huge FOV, but not as wide as the ultra-wide cams. I prefer the ultra wide if I'm trying to capture a large area. Then i use other models when I need more accurate view.
It would be nice to have a 3 cam or a 2 cam option for Duo cams. Where it shows 2 duos as widescreen. or 3 cams with the 1 duo at top as wide screen and 2 cams below in a squared box. PC Client already does it, with 2 cam setting. Currently the only has a 4 cam option.
@user_603788725944329_603788725944329 Add them per their UID that will create the cloud link between your app and the cams.
@user_830676047601836_830676047601836 I know on my reolink nvr, there is a auto scan feature when trying to add a cam to a channel. Does the Amcrest cam show up in that list?
It would be nice if "linked devices" would include more camera models. Almost all of the cams have spotlights and or sirens. Would be nice if we could active them in scenarios.
Viewing the cams one by one, it will stay on high. But if you view them all at one, they all will revert to low. I wish they would let you view all on high, since I have a smoking GPU on my PC.
@user_961206383788200_961206383788200 I have one working like clock work. But when I 1st got it, I charged it in home until 100% and then installed it outside. I had to fidget with the solar panel location and direction a little bit to get it right. Took me a couple of days to find the right spot and angle. I had issues with it charging below 30 degrees F but that is normal for the battery type. But 07/26/25 morning its charging at 80 degree F with 80% humidity. Do you have the solar panel plugged up tight? You have to use some force to plug it in.
@coz_967905735143579 There is an option for that in the Spotlight section, its in the Night Smart Mode. What model camera do you have?
@czp_609875358003264 The POE port shouldn't be connected to the network. You're probably getting IP conflict errors. Disconnect it and you should be ready to go!
@big_ted I have 9 cams on my home... so buying 9 ( at $170 a pop) of them would cost as much as a decent UPS. That would power up your router and switch, or just 1 NVR.
@czp_609875358003264 Adding the the previous user above mentioned. I have this same thing going on at 1 site. we have 2 NVRs on 1 network. We have a firewall, 2 large POE switches, Multiple Access Points, and multiple hardwired/wireless clients connected. All statics for NVRs and Cams. My subnet is 10.0.0.1/24 and the DHCP Pool is 10.0.0.100-254. I set the NVR static to .20 and .21, and the cams from .22-.50Turn off Auto Add cams to the NVR. Manually add each cam to which ever NVR you want. Then we have both monitors (1 connected to each NVR) sitting right next to each other, running at full time.
@joseph_1979 Brooo... this is looking awesome! If you all need alpha testers... sign me up bruh!
also linked to the Pro cams?!?Niiiice!
@reolink-alyson Hopefully its the POE version of the elite?!?
@joseph_1979
I hope the RLN36 get the update to support this.
