Can you use other network cameras besides q-see's to use this nvr?

I have not found any yet. in fact I talked to Lorex yesterday and they said they are not compatible. Looks like I made a mistake purchasing the unit separately. I had cameras that I thought would be compatible. May just list this unit on eBay and start over

Four cameras plug into the unit itself the other 4 plug into a switch that has power over Ethernet built in. You will have to buy a switch with POE and plug it into NVR.

Actually by default some of the Qsee DVRs are set to port 85, so yes you can use another port..

I don't see why not. It's really plug and play so you don't really need a computer if you want to view and control the unit from the NVR only. But if you want remote viewing via the Internet, you just need any computer to change settings on the router.

yes any camera just as long is analog with bnc connector or you can use and cat5 to bnc converter to connect you camera (Balun)quality comes from your DVR and your Camera.

Hi Kim, Yes it will, the NVR will not be able to determine if the camera is wired or wireless. It just "senses" if a camera is Onvif conformant or not. If it is, then it will work. Thanks, Nelly's Security

Also, I see some folks saying that third party software is required...this is not true. The webpage built into the camera allows you to record to the local computer that the webpage is brought up on...ok so no, you don't need another software, unless you want to record as a DVR or NVR, meaning the webpage doesn't have to be up, but the DVR/NVR application has to be running.

Yes you can with this camera. What i like about this cam is the wider angle it has compared to the rest. It covers a lot more space than regular cam. For remote viewing what you need to have is a networked dvr. Which would allow you to connect to the internet and log in from anywhere with regular instructions. Hope this helps

There´s an Airvision NVR controller you can get for $325 (http://www.amazon.com/Ubiquiti-Networks-AIRVISION-C-AirVision-Controller/dp/B00EN0HWE0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1409153141&s;r=8-1&keywords;=ubiquiti+nvr), however I have a 16 camera system in a Linux box (Ubuntu) working flawlessly some 2 years ago

If you buy the software or get the trial version (http://blueirissoftware.com/download/), you will need to install on a PC (which will become your NVR or DVR). Guess your cameras are IP cameras? Then you can view your cameras locally, serve to mobile devices locally and view remotely. Also recording locally on the PC hard disk.

Not possible to view more than one camera simultaneously on a mobile device, to my knowledge. On the computer, you can have two browser windows open, use Blue Iris (which works great for me), or any other NVR Camera application.

These are not wi-fi camera. You have to run Ethernet cables from the cameras to your NVR.

I am not familiar with that DVR. I suggest that you refer to the Ubiquity Forum. These Cameras do not follow the typical standards that are used by most Network cameras that you see in the marketplace. They are really made to operate with Ubiquity's DVR software. http://forum.ubnt.com/forumdisplay.php?f=70

Yes.Or connect the DVR on your network, install software on your PC and record.. (not easy to do).

Hey I've purchased this camera before you need to have a DVR receiver in order to use this camera. You should check the QSee official website for more details. They have pretty good customer service

I use it with Sensr.net. It's an NVR in the cloud. One month storage, $9.95 for the first camera, $4.95 for additional cameras.

Unfortunately, no. DVRs like that only accept analog video cameras, and these Aircams are entirely digital (most IP cameras are). These require much more technical know-how to install. Also, note that these cameras do not have night vision, so they may not be suitable for your purposes anyway.
