Is this unit accessible via a linux box on the same network? I ask because my main dvr is only accessible via WINDOWS ie.

Sorry, I never worked with Linux, I can't tell you. All I know is that it is accessible through a web browser with a fixed ip address. Good luck!

Yes, I use a raspberry with raspbian to stream the cameras with the browser to a 19" monitor.

Tivo states that wireless connections are not supported and that both the DVR and the Stream have to be connected to the same wired network. My Stream is connected directly to my router and works fine. My DVR is connected via an A/V power line Ethernet connection. That being said, I'm sure Amazon would allow you to return it if your setup doesn't work.

Yes. It will still record/view on the DVR and on local LAN/Wifi Network without issue

DVR = Digital Video RecorderWhich is exactly what this device does... sounds like you ar emisunderstanding the term.

That should work fine. Have you considered the higher resolution camera. Just make sure you have a Power Over Ethernet router or use the POE from the DVR. I have three cameras connect through a wireless bridge. That works great.

Hello Howard. I have the same setup as you, 2 laptops, 1 desktop...all networked. The thing is, your network will and does recognize the Buffalo, but you can only read and write to the Buffalo on the 'puter that it is connected to. The Buffalo says that it will only back-up from an internal drive, which is true. I wanted to back-up my other machines over my network, but I have not been successful with that. What I do is physically move the unit to the machine that I want to back-up. With that said, this is a really GREAT value and pretty good software is included. Not sure about your DVR. My ATT-Uverse does not recognize the Buffalo on my network. Hope this helps! Hello Howard. I have the same setup as you, 2 laptops, 1 desktop...all networked.

this system come with a DVR which is network ready and HDD included, so answering your question, yes it need a DVR, and I is already included, you don't need a separate DVR for normal operation.

Unless your main dvr has some sort of DLNA functionality, I'm going to lean towards no. You most likely are not going to able to watch recorded shows.

No there is one for network operation. It has 16 analog BNC camera connections. Sounds like you are looking for a NVR not a DVR. The NVR is used for IP cameras, they are connected through an RJ-45 and CAT5 or Cat 6 cable

Dear friend, it can't compatible with the Network storage service system or NVR system, thank you!

Some HD boxes come with an Ethernet port that allows wired connection. This box works with most Direct TV types for witeless and injects the signal kn the box through the coax from the satellite. it also has an ethernet port output. Check with Direct TV to be sure it works with the type of DVR you need for your configuration.

To be honest, I am not really sure. I put a WD 1TB Green Drive, which other people had issues with in other DVR's & I did not have any problems.

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

I use a portable hard drive (segate) with my setup and works fine. This way you only need one power source ( for the DVR.

The two boxes are identical. The DTVPal DVR is also fully HD compatible as well.

Yes, it has RS232 control that can be used with many DVR's to give you remote access. Out of the box this unit does not allow a remote user to control, it takes a secondary box.
