I have IP cameras going over a WiFi bridge back to the a Hikvision NVR. The camera come in and out & have green bars sometimes. What is causing this and how can I try to resolve this issue?

Answer:

This is typically cause by AP used for bridging that can't handly the heavy ammount of IP traffic. If replacing the bridge equipment is not an option. Try the following:

• Set the cameras resolution down to 1920x1080.
• Set cameras max bitrate KBPS to 1024 for the "Main Stream" and "Main Stream Event".
• Set cameras max bitrate KBPS to 128 for the "sub stream".
• Reboot the recorder and see if this helps eliminate the issue.

If the above steps do not work. Then replacing the WiFi bridge equipment will be needed.
