I have a DCS system and we dropped our home line that was being used for monitoring. What IP monitoring solutions are people using?

Eyezon offers their own service from a (UL/ULC listed) company called CMS in Canada (they cover the US also). Its $8.95/mo... and I've been really happy with it. Phone rings within a few seconds of the alarm going off. I've heard a few others support it also, but the service direct from Eyezon is hard to beat. Company was accepted by my insurance and I'm getting about a $150/yr discount... which is more than paying for the service.

I use the envisalarms service at eyezon.com. they've been very responsive and quick to call back for an alarm event.

I returned this product because the IP cameras will lose all wireless configuration after they are powered off. I am using Logitech's security system. You just plug in the camera's power adapter in your wall socket, then the camera signal will be transmitted to a receiver adapter (comes with the system, you plug it in your wall socket as well) via your power line, the receiver adapter is connected to your router. Here is the product Logitech Alert 750e Outdoor Master Security Camera System with Night Vision (961-000337) (Discontinued by Manufacturer) it is more expensive, but is very stable and good quality.

no, you need to call a monitoring company a have them register it on their network.

you connect via IP address (best to use DDNS if you do not have a static IP) and port as the DVR has a built in web server. Samples of the interface can be seen on zmodo's website. Also I believe there is a zmodo mobile app available for viewing on mobile devices.

I'm not sure what you mean by the question, but I have my router setup dhcp and connected it directly to the ismartalarm.

Thanks... we might just use something like powerline networking. Thanks for the example!

yes, this upgrade fixes the issue; now I can see all the DHCP addresses present in my home network..Thanks for the note

Yes. I have 3 5004's running off one 5101. I believe you have to resync them all when you add one. If you don't have the Netgear Powerline Utility (Windows app - free) it is a nice little utility that lets you check the status and add a security key.

I will also confirm this is CCA. I use it direct burial to run IP cameras. Works fine.

I use nettalk duo with my x10 security system, it has worked just fine for over a year with no issues. I plugged the duo into a wall jack which connected all of the jacks in the house. My modem and duo are plugged into a ups so loss of power is not an issue. When my alarm is triggered it the security console dials up to 6 numbers and allows remote operation. I have had no issues with call quality.

I'll take a look tonight at its IPs stats in my router. It should be extremely minimal.

If you were to monitor other electronic devices you could tell if the power was out. Not sure how you would monitor your internet connection unless you had your router in the camera surveillance area.

No. This is not an IP camera. it runs down CAT5 but only works with specific Samdung DVR's. Doesnt have an interface to the camera.

Problem solved. With the help of the folks on the AVS and D-Link forum, I was able to narrow down the problem to a new feature on the D-Link DIR-655 router called "SecereSpot". It was enabled by default causing all kinds of problems. Once I disable SecureSpot, BD390 started working immediately. Also changed the IP address on the BD390 from dynamic to static. Works great now.

Do not need software this is a camera - your DVR has the software in it - just go to the ip address and login using the user name and password you set in the set up of the unit. It WILL NOT WORK in your home network!!!! You must go to an outside internet source or you must use the ip address of the unit. I had to use No-IP.org because I do not get a static ip from my DNS provider.

I purchased equipment from JMAC and set up monitoring with Alarm Relay. Both companies have been excellent to work with. Monitoring is very important to me, I self monitored for 5 years with my old system but go out of coverage for days and switched to the 21iP with monitoring and love it.

Yes. You can use them with a standalone router. It just needs to be able to see the DHCP server on the same subnet as the access point. You only need to have the controller running if you use the guest services portal. Otherwise it is really a configuration utility not a controller. Hope that answers your questions!!
