I assume his IP address says otherwise.... :)

I can hardly wait! *Joins Matty with some popcorn* (I don't know why I'm bothered I drive a Land Rover - I don't have boots!)

Just post it already! If it's inappropriate then the mods will simply delete it.

lol - stop using any form of technology if that's your concern mate!

H stands for "HSDPA" which is often referred to as 3.5G in that it is a development of the 3G technology and is in theory significantly faster than 3G. Your cameras are compressing the streams themselves if outputting H.264. I'm surprised that you seem to have just the cameras streaming to...

Generally speaking a hard drive is a hard drive. Yes, server biased SCSI drives are manufactured to a higher standard but in CCTV DVR's are standard SATA hard drives. All a CCTV DVR is inside is a PC running a custom operating system/software usually a flavour of Linux as the base OS. Hard...

True, I should have said most. OpenReach are doing some trials with Fibre to the premises but it's very small scale IIRC. There are fibre to the premises products available now and also Ethernet to the home but they are far from cheap! Virgin are really limited on the upstream side as...

All "Fibre" as it is sold isn't actually fibre to the home. It is FTTC (Fibre to the cabinet) - very briefly the DSLAM is moved from the main exchange which could be many miles away to your local street cabinet. The connection from the cabinet to your home is still the age old copper cabling...

In fact 1meg up is pretty much the limit for the version of ADSL used in the UK and should be more than adequate for viewing IP cameras. Paying extra for a business line really doesn't give you many, if any benefits to be honest. You have a reduced contention ratio although nowadays that is...

Thanks Paul, I am aware of that but given that 95% of routers are unchanged from default then a Draytek (depending on firmware) will be on one of the 4 addresses I provided which for a novice is arguably much faster than working out how to open a command prompt and then deciphering any number...

Nah probably just a new provision or a new fibre product. You haven't enlightened us with what problems you are experiencing with your current line... To get your router stats just open a web browser on your PC and try each of these addresses in turn. http://192.168.1.1...

Under HASAWA anyone has a responsibility to others even trespassers! It's actually a specific group of people mentioned in guidelines and although most people don't agree with it they must be protected to. Any hazard should be appropriately protected to safeguard others. Now the...

As others have said, it all depends on so many factors that people posting their speeds is pointless. You would need to compare your sync speeds with your actual speeds. There will be some difference due to the overhead of TCP/IP etc but on the whole they should be in the same ballpark...

Ah but zanzibar you fail to take into account fair wear and tear which is not deductable against a deposit. Now if it is a bodged up mess and not fit for purpose (i.e. fouls the normal opening of a door) then fair wear and tear would arguably include damage caused by said door.

I would say it's unfair. For starters the fan doesn't appear to have fitted correctly in that it has no fixings obvious. Secondly the fan should not be positioned in such a way that an opening door can interfere with it (from the picture it appears as though the door can touch it quite...

My thoughts exactly tbh. A few wisps of shielding will have zero (or negligible affect on a UHF signal). I agree it looks untidy and could do with tidying up but don't unnecessarily worry people. The shielding is exaclty that.. it is shielding and as such will be connected to earth so...

OP was March 2012, I'd call 18 months an old post

If this is a legitimate research project please could you enlighten us to the research proposal which obviously will have been approved by the university. Also a copy of your approval for this research method from your university's ethics committee.

Hi, I'm afraid it is likely to be impossible to do as you wish. A TV is an output device to display a video signal (TV's normally have an internal tuner etc to generate the signal). A projector is an output device again designed to display a video signal. There is 9 times out of 10 no...

It seems great! Solid metal chassis construction and the quality looks pretty top notch. Yes the charger has separate 12v PSU TX and RX is damn good quality and battery life is pretty good. We are looking at using VHF so I guess the UV-5R's are the cheapest we're going to find.
