UDM/Protect The never ending story..
Having a UDM (Unify dream machine) everything should be a plug n play, it might be as long as you do not play around with the setting and adding Wifi, protect talk etc. This incident is about Protect, a camera setup which has more issues than Murphy could even participate. The first setup went ok, but then: Theres no backup. Yes one can save recordings on the UDM (if one installs a harddrive) Recordings nice and easy, motion sensors - but export isn’t an option. One can choose up to 30 event and save one by one.. So when asking Unify about this: “ Ohh thanks for getting in touch, we will forward this to development..” Right, knock knock What is theres a fire or burglary - if they steal the UDM, then there isn’t any evidence - That is simply not good enough. On the community this has been an issue for years. But its possible to save records via RTSP Synology NAS, if one correct the port no. Then Protect has (should have) the ability to show live cameras and recordings, but no: The msg: Setup console came up constantly. On UI community this is also a big issue. After setting up the UDM console several times*, its turns out that the Camera is the console, after reset of these cams (up the ladder, dismantle hard reset on each and every one) then cams can be shown in the protect app. The UDM is also crazy setting up when having a PPOE, It insist in having a username and password. Well mine do not - ohh then setup offline, yea right, then you cant access from outside network, så up the hole network setup with old and other routers, in order to get sh** online. This UNIFY has been very demanding, and one should really consider and other setup, who have all the features from start.
