Good video but I dont understand why you need to use the monitor to add wifi cameras, its a bit inconvenient. Is it not possible to add these settings to the app/web interface of nvr?

[richardwoods]

trying to do this and the "channel" option is not available either through the web interface or phone app? has the UI been changed?

A video on the Wi-Fi NVR is needed. Especially how to add cameras already installed 30’ up on a home.
Also if possible to connect other cameras on a different location and internet connection.

Can other wifi cameras from different vendors work? Example the Eufy 2k Indoor Camera?

FEATURE REQUEST
Reolink, could you please add a snooze mode to push and email notices? If I am cutting grass or shoveling snow my phone blows up! My Lorex video doorbell app has a programmable 30, 60, 120 minute, snooze or permanent off function and it works great!

Do you need to use to app to connect it to wifi? Can it be done using the NVR only?

Thanks for this. Do you have a solar powered WiFi camera that can be connected to the NVR? I'd like to have the camera set up outside about 10 feet from my house and my plan is to bury the POE line. The WiFi/solar looks like an easier set up but I don't know if it's even possible. I currently have 3 POE cameras connected to the NVR.

Hello, tell me please, i got my RLN12W NVR one week ago, and i noticed in the left side where should be a cooler is only the place for cooler, but no cooler inside, also this NVR don't have a power ON/OFF button. Can you tell me something about these 2 problems, please? Other then these, i am happy with this NVR, i have connected with this 2 Reolnk E1 Zoom Wi-Fi cameras and one Reolink Vide Doorbell Wi-Fi, and works perfect.

I need to know if the Argus 2 and Argus Ultra 4K can be connected to the NVR. I have them connected by WiFi to my phone and the PC by using the Reo LInk connect software. Since the cameras don't have a Ethernet connection I don't know how to get them to connect to the NVR. The NVR is connected to my LAN by Ethernet. Hoping there is a way to do this so I can display them on my monitor by HDMI like I do the POE cameras.

If your using the NVR with a monitor do not use the App to add your IP cameras as it gets confused between the NVR and the APP. At least mine did and I restored the NVR to defaults since it was confused and added them in using the NVR Monitor and it worked fine.

Can you connect an e1 pro to the nvr via ethernet and keep the power adaptor connected?

Hello, is there any chance to connect RLC-823A and Reolink E1 Zoom to a PoE NVR but with full controll of tilt and tend when you are away (App)?
Thanks!

Are we able to keep the wifi models hard wired like a regular Poe model. If so do we need to purchase additional cable or accessories

[Random_How-tos]

Hi, I don’t know if you guys really know this problem or heard of it before but I ended up having to hardwire all of my cameras because every time it rained or there was a thunderstorm the cameras would stop working and my Wi-Fi camera from other brands would continue to work perfectly. I think this might be an antenna problem on your camera hopefully you guys can get this sorted out.

If you have an 8ch Reolink NVR and all 8 channels are filled using POE can you still add Reolink WiFi cams to the system and get them to show in the NVR app or would you need more physical channels on the NVR for them to show?

[arlinbautista]

Which models can work on bothe poe or wifi

[MiamiAlfred]

Would this connect to a mesh TP link deco in the same way? How to you handle if router uses 2.4/5ghz using same SsId?

[JoseRamirez-wybe]

I have the wifi system. But the farthest camera has weak Wi-Fi signal how can I change the camera from Wi-Fi to direct ethernet cable connection
