People that complain are idiots!!!! Thanks to people like you, information is available online for everyday consumers who need straight forward information before purchasing. Thank you for taking the time to put this video together.

Thanks for the comment much appreciated!

[@nateegan]

Just bought this system and installed it at a Pizza Place to replace the really old system they had, it was definitely an upgrade from having old Samsung black and white ones that used phone wire and an old small projection tv screen that was going out that didn't even record. The think that was nice about upgrading with this system is how it uses computer data cables (CAT5e) which is becoming a more and more common cable for security cameras, so when the owner decides to upgrade, they can reuse the data cables and just switch out the box and cameras. It is nice to have one cable that will provide power and the data for the cameras. The box software isn't too bad, it can be a little confusing. You can set recording rules, like when for it to be on or off or all the time, and you can also set alarms if one goes off-line etc. I stumbled across with the app on a smart phone when you have a screen connected via HDMI cable with audio capabilities, you can push a button and talk through it to people by the screen. Be sure if you buy this system to change the default login password.

Bought these this week from amazon. Great overnight del. System easy to set up apart from email alerts. Bit tricky. Need gmail and also need to allow less secure apps on google. Link on suppliers website. Easy fix one click and bang messages coming into phone. Well pleased. Adjusted cameras at night to get IR in right place. Sorted

[@bjizzle412]

I''m glad that you figured out how to secure the HDD to the base. you can tell you never built a computer before, because you had a hard time. Next time just use the mounting screw holes that are in the bottom of the HDD with any of the holes that are in the box. great video, keep up the good work bud.

[@GeekStreet]

bjizzle412 thanks for the comment much appreciated. Yes true, but the reason I was confused about mounting the hard disk was that I read some reviews on Amazon about this before buying and some of the reviews said there was no way of attaching the drive to the case and some people actually stuck it down with tape. So I assume that was the case in this situation. Don't forget to like and subscribe!

[@bjizzle412]

then those people didnt know what they was doing! haha are you still using this system today and how is it working out for you? im about to order my system this weekend. how hard was it to run all your wires and did you end up cutting them and put them back together like you said?

[@GeekStreet]

bjizzle412 yes I am still running the system all is good. It was easy to run the cables and yes I cut the connectors and crimped a new connector i didn't want to drill a massive hole.

[@RealMaGicXz]

If you look on the top silver side of the hdd there's holes which will line up with the holes on the bottom of the chassis to screw it down. The holes on the bottom of the chassis are for 3.5 inch drives the wider spread holes and 2.5 inch drives the smaller spread holes

my friend got this and recommended it. im wondering if its possible to hook up to 2 tvs, one downstairs and one upstairs. id like to be able to look at the screen in my room when my yard sensors go off to know if its a person or just a animal/insect/wind. running the wires may be a mess for me

[@GeekStreet]

This is possible as there is both VGA and HDMI so hook both them up.

[@DollarBon3zz]

Where did you buy yours from? Online or store?

[@hippa2dahoppa2]

i got mine off ebay, i got it totally hooked up yesterday its pretty decent. from 10 feet away you get a pretty clear shot. but if your aiming 3 doors down to cover a wide area your not going to see license plate numbers or clear face shots. but i paid only 150$ and it came with a 1tb hard drive. and paid another 30 for 4 100 foot cable sets just to make sure i wasnt short any wire. took me a day to set the cameras up and about 9 hours to do all the wiring because i had problems drilling a giant hole in my house on my roof lol. but for 150$ its great imo. i also got it to work with 2 tvs. its prob not the absolute best system but for me its what i wanted. i can glance at my screen and see if anyone is at my front door, back door, garage, or trying to sneak through the lot next door and i have alot of problems with my neighbors destroying our area so i can now make a compilation of the crap they do and send it to the police since we have ahorrible police repsond time (took them 3 hours to show up yesterday). if you look on my page in the uploads, find a video about 2 tvs, and then look at the info under it, i copy and pasted the exact name of the camera i bought from ebay so people can find it if they want to by one.

Sannce suppose to be an onvif compatible, but it wont search for IP cameras other then its own. The cameras it came with is pretty plug and play but adding other cameras is a pain. The cables it comes with are patch cables and are to flex to crimp well. Just cut your own cable.

[@GeekStreet]

Thanks for the comment. Actually I have tried with other systems which are onvif compatible and it does work but just to note a couple of things. On the onvif camera you may have to enable onvif, on the NVR you will probably have to manually setup the onvif camera and ensure the the correct username and password is entered if the onvif camera has a very high resolution which if higher that what the NVR can support you will need to lower the resolution. It does work but generally not plug and play.

Do it come with the hard drive or you have to get your own hard drive

[@GeekStreet]

Check out the link in the description. They now seem to come with a hard disk installed.

[@SuperFLOSMAN]

Hi mate looking to purchase this soon do you need it hooked up to the internet to view on your phone thanks in advanced

[@GeekStreet]

Flosman if you want to view remotely when your away from your house then yes.

[@aflores8686]

will the cameras not turn on to be seen on the television if you do not install a hard disk.

[@GeekStreet]

Not sure about that, I'm guessing it would as the OS would load and have no where to save the recording.

[@nateegan]

Amazon was claiming that you could do it, it just of course does a view only and won't save anything.

[@NFSWLAGRIMIN]

Nice video, but i need some help. After i set IP when i test gateway again i still receive ERROR message. Do i need to restart DVR or something? Any tip you can give me about it? Thanks!

[@GeekStreet]

+Cobra Raven ensure the Ethernet cable is connected and I guess first try restarting. I didn't have to restart but somene mentioned they restarted and it worked.

[@mattchristie4707]

AWESOME VIDEO !...Im looking into ordering this off eBay with no hard drive ...can I use a USB memory stick to save video? and will this Still work with no Internet? ..PLEASE HELP SO I CAN PURCHASE ASAP..THANK U!!

[@GeekStreet]

Matt Christie no, you need a hard disk, usb memory stick can not be used for this purpose as far as I'm aware.

[@mattchristie4707]

Ok thanks! You're Awesome thank you for SUCH A FAST REPLY!

[@GeekStreet]

Matt Christie no problem, your welcome.

[@zedman442]

Nice review. Shame those RJ45 connectors are so huge. Probably need a 22mm drill bit to get them connectors through the wall!? Use some good expanding foam to fill the void, and some sealant when screwing the cameras to the wall, keep the moisture out.

[@GeekStreet]

+Zed Man I actually fitted in the camera's in the sofit area below the gutters and cut the RJ45 cable so drilled the smallest hole possible and used a crimping tool to put the connector on. Avoided doing such a big hole an the connection is sealed so shouldn't have issues in the future.

[@nateegan]

If you don't want to have to re-terminate the cable, you can just feed from where the camera is going to be the end that will go into the back of the box since it doesn't have all the weather proof stuff on it.

[@ryanh3285]

Is this still working well after a few years?

[@GeekStreet]

Yea

[@waatao9856]

@@GeekStreet hey man having issues with mine the cameras keeps turning off and on when I mess with the digital IP address. Sometime the camera turn on and sometimes says no config offline turn back on and off and sometimes even stays off completely

[@aklole993]

With the HDD installed, will it constantly record? How does it know when to delete history? How many hours of recording will your 2 TB HDD hold? Thanks for the vid!

[@GeekStreet]

+A K no you can set it to record on motion detection. You can also set it to overwrite on full capacity and there is also an option to hold recordings for a set number of days. My 2TB drive holds about 3-4 months of recordings.

[@aklole993]

Thanks for the reply! Is there a way to set it to always record? Or is that standard in surveillance systems?

[@GeekStreet]

A K no problem, by default it's set to always record you have to change to enable it to record on motion defect. Hope that helps.

[@skylorjaygrenada3791]

Can I set this up then turn my monitor of and use my tablet as my viewing screen ?

[@GeekStreet]

Yes you can do that.

I want to monitor an empty house 150 miles from where I live. What would be the minimum upload internet speed needed? It's either 17Mbp ADSL or 50Mbp cable where I want to use the CCTV. There's no internet there at present so I need to sort that first!

[@GeekStreet]

+Alvin Wyllie I have a 50mb download and 1mb upload and that's fine.

Right, many thanks!

[@parkofthedead2897]

Hi mate, excellent video. How much was the system, looking at one now but am interested to see what sort of price it was. May look at 8ch. Is the footage good enough to use alongside a Gopro video at the same resolution?

[@GeekStreet]

+Park oftheDead the cctv system was £219 and the 2tb hdd was £66. Picture quality at 1080p is pretty good.

[@maximoescandon967]

I have a system like this everything works fine but I can only get 2 of my cameras to record do you know what my problem may be?

[@GeekStreet]

Click around the options for each camera and see what selected. There is a motion detect option but also a constant record.

[@genarodiazdeleon1992]

For it to work do you need to buy the hard drive or would it work with out the hard drive

[@GeekStreet]

It will work without a hard disk but you won't be able to record any footage.

[@genarodiazdeleon1992]

Geek Street is 79$ good for a hard disc?

[@GeekStreet]

What size is the hard disk?

[@genarodiazdeleon1992]

Geek Street 3.5 Toshiba

[@GeekStreet]

What's the capacity?

[@marykirkwood2817]

I'm bought system but it's not working at all does it have to be hooked to computer monitor or can I hook to tv

[@GeekStreet]

TV or monitor

[@andylee1122]

Geek Street+ Nice video, so the ethernet cord provides power to the cameras? thought you would show the remote access via your phone and what app would you use, thanks

[@GeekStreet]

+Andy Lee thanks for the comment. Your actually in luck I have another video which shows the different viewing options. Check it out kzbin.info/www/bejne/iXnSioturqt2ja8

[@GeekStreet]

+Andy Lee yes the Ethernet cable provides the power.

[@andylee1122]

Wow didnt even realize that ethernet could provide the power in that way just learned something new, i always only saw just dvr cams now theres nvr cam kits that seems way better

[@johnmark1742]

It seems that the HDD is secured in a similar manner to the 'tree/gutter-pipe strap' on the ReoLink Argus Eco: by reading the instructions first.

[@khaladmehmood9692]

Fahigqgqhqwii

[@brentdavis8186]

What do you have to do to get it to connect to the internet because I have two similar sets and I can't connect them to the internet for some reason

[@GeekStreet]

You just get an ethernet cable and connect one end to you router and the other to the NVR.

[@brentdavis8186]

Geek Street I tried that I get ether 50% to 100% packet loss and I can't connect to it

[@GeekStreet]

Packet loss? You might have a faulty cable.

[@brentdavis8186]

Geek Street ive tried different cables..... My step-brother had gotten it to work before but he went to school to be an IT guy and now he's not here

[@TheAlbania1991]

@geek street i just bought same cameras and im going to send them to my country, can i check them from here uk? thanks

[@GeekStreet]

+Arbana Rrjolli yes definitely.....as long as you have Internet in the property with the cameras and your remote location it can work

[@prodriguez0257]

How long is the cable?

[@ryanscott5340]

What is the name of the hard disk you bought. (link if poissible?)

[@GeekStreet]

WD 2 TB 3.5-inch Internal SATA Surveillance Storage Hard Drive - Purple - I paid £66.53 from Amazon.

[@ryanscott5340]

Thanks a lot :)

[@you-tubejunkie2926]

ETHERNET cable from your router to the NVR ?...... Why is that needed ? Thank you in advance for your answer.

[@GeekStreet]

You-Tube Junkie to enable you to view the system remotely.

[@you-tubejunkie2926]

I want live only , can I still use it. Thank you in advance for your answer.

[@GeekStreet]

+You-Tube Junkie yes if you just connect a monitor you can still do that.

[@StarsMarklar]

So you actually have to get the hard drive separately?

[@GeekStreet]

+StarsMarklar yes for this particular system.

Здравствуйте не подскажите эти камеры хpoe можно подключить к poe камутатору

[@hippa2dahoppa2]

i just got mine today, i got a slightly different black camera model. it doesnt have the internet cables that go to each camera it has a double wire that leads to a octapus plug power source. my question is is the internet even needed for these? the internets basically just for cloud storage right?, and maybe power if it doesnt have the octopus power cable like mine. i tested it out and just hooked the cameras to the box and then hdmi to my tv and looks like it all works ok without internet. the damn things keep flashing into night mode to whenever i walk past them i hope it doesnt do this when i hook them up outside. i cant get it to stop. i dunno if its the motion detect, or turning from day to night mode on me because they are close to me and not outside yet.

[@GeekStreet]

it sounds like you didn't buy the poe (power over Internet) version this is more of a hassle as you need to ensure there if electricity near each camera installation. personally I'd return and get the poe version as gives more flexibility as you don't have to worry about the location and power source. Internet is only needed if you want to view the camera's while away from your home on a smartphone

[@hippa2dahoppa2]

the power wont be a issue, all 4 cameras plug into one power source which will run by the video line anyways so i got that part figured out. but the remote and instructions are horrific. i tried shutting the box down and it said turn off san on the screen i had no clue how to turn it off since nothing is labeled on the remote or box. so i just turned the pwoer strip off. now when i turn it back on i get no signal at all. i hear the cameras on, see the light on the box is on. but see no signal on the screen. i wish there was one button that said power! other then that it seems pretty awesome.

[@GeekStreet]

Excellent, as long as it works for you that's the main thing.

[@DollarBon3zz]

^^ I'll buy it

I recently installed the set up and love it. However, when I call for playback, then press fast playback, It just moves really slow (like 1/2 second for 1 second recording. There has got to be a way to zap through the scenes Help

[@billboentgesphotography7458]

how long are the cables for the wired camera's ?

[@GeekStreet]

+Bill Boentges from what I remember you get 2 x 25M and 2 x 15M, but as this is just Ethernet cable you can buy longer cables if you want seperately.

[@LuisVazquez-xi2yq]

Se. I have a question. Why one of my cameras keep jumping and getting the others cameras IP. How I can fix it? Thanks

[@GeekStreet]

+Luis Vazquez I've not seen that issue, but I can make some suggestions. 1. Perhaps your router is only give a small range of IP addresses and maybe it's run out of addresses to give. This is a bit extreme bit you never know. 2. Turn the system off and disconnect the cameras from the DVR turn the system back on then plug in each camera and wait for the picture to appear then move onto the next camera do this slowly. 3. Perhaps 2 of the cameras have the same MAC address. 4. Maybe a faulty camera or a faulty camera. 5. Another device on the network has the same IP address and this is static and is causing a conflict Let me know how it goes, would be interesting to hear how you resolve.

[@DiogoSerrano]

Hi do you know if I can use this poe cameras to connect to my router ?

[@GtaBanshee]

Yes poe need router as poe stands for power over ethernet.
