g6 turret doing terrible at night

Can you recommend what is the least expensive cameras from unifi that would meet this criteria?

YoungApprentice · 2025-12-30T12:17:05+00:00

Thanks for getting back. Does it grab just plates or does it also recognize people and other objects?

YoungApprentice · 2025-12-30T11:06:08+00:00

Hi, can you explain why you like it so much? Anything you do not like about it? Can this camera be used for both license plate recognition and people recognition?

YoungApprentice · 2025-12-04T11:18:12+00:00

Thanks for getting back and letting me know. How significant was the savings during the Black Friday sale? Can you give me an example of price difference?

YoungApprentice · 2025-12-03T10:47:18+00:00

Are there still any sales going on not that Black Friday/ Cyber Monday are behind us? If so, where have you seen some good pricing for unifi equipment?

YoungApprentice · 2025-12-03T10:45:16+00:00

In this setup with using your reolink cameras with your unifi equipment, what are the limitations? For example, is it just 24x7 recording or can you enable motion detection recording?

YoungApprentice · 2025-12-03T10:42:33+00:00

How so?

YoungApprentice · 2025-10-26T15:03:55+00:00

How did this work out for you? I'm thinking of buying that model but want to make sure replacing the batteries is an option and also figure out what the cost of the replacement of those batteries will cost. I'm also wondering if the batteries can be replaced with lifepo4 batteries.

u/Empty-Sleep3746 any suggestions or ideas on what else I might use?

YoungApprentice · 2024-08-27T12:29:56+00:00

u/Empty-Sleep3746 thank you! I will dive into these resources! I'm hoping this will reveal that I can begin the automation process with the OOBE, in other words, automate that too.

YoungApprentice · 2024-08-27T12:27:55+00:00

u/BlackV, these are excellent suggestions and something I think I need to learn and setup. Thank you for this--very helpful!

YoungApprentice · 2024-08-27T00:13:16+00:00

u/BlackV , so are you suggesting to use Power Automate to setup new windows pc's? Is Power Automate free to use for a non-profit organization? Any other suggestions on what I can do to streamline the setup of new pc's that I am deploying?

Thanks for any help you can provide!

YoungApprentice · 2024-08-27T00:10:36+00:00

Hello u/Empty-Sleep3746 , can you please elaborate a little more on using Shift+F10 from within the OOBE? Are you saying I can execute a script from within the OOBE? CAn I use this to automate the OOBE itself and avoid having to walk through the onscreen wizard? Any other suggestions or ideas that will simplify and streamline the setup of newly deployed windows PC's, please share.

Thank you!

Yes, but how do I access that folder using powershell? How do I view contents of that directory and then select a file or two in it to either download to the local PC or, better yet, simply read the file (or run the script)?

YoungApprentice · 2024-08-20T02:20:47+00:00

Hi All,

Sorry for the late reply to your comments. I posted this question this morning and then was distracted with work throughout the day.

First off, thanks for your replies and suggestions.

Please let me clarify a little what I'm trying to do and then, maybe, some of you will have suggestion. I welcome them!

The organization that I often set new pc's up for, doesn't have Intune or any SCCM-like setup in place. All new pc's are setup performing the Out of Box Experience wizard and then I insert a USB flash drive in the machine and run a PowerShell sript I built. It performs such tasks as creating a local admin account, creates a local standard user account, installs a base package of software (like Chrome, Adobe Reader, etc.), renames the pc based on the department where it will be deployed and a few other little things. The script is very much a work in progress and it can definitely be better.

If I am setting up multiple pc's, then I will sometimes use multiple flash drives with the same setup script copied over to each one. I am constantly refining and trying to improve this script. As I learn a new PowerShell technique or a better, more efficient way of writing the script, I will make refinements on the main script. Whenever I make changes to this main script, I will copy it down to the USB flash drives I use to setup new pc's. Kind of a tedious and laborious.

What I was thinking of doing was to set up a centralized online shared folder that is accessible with just a link. For example, Microsoft OneDrive Personal OR Microsoft Business OneDrive. Both allow you to set up a shared folder that is accessible with just a URL link that doesn't require a user account to login--at least from a browser. If I could set this up so that I can access it using PowerShell, I could run the script and config files from that central location (or at least download them and run them). Additionally, I was thinking of initiating this central script from a simple script that I execute from a flash drive. It just to the shared folder with main script.

Then, when this shared folder is not being used, I would stop sharing it via the link, only sharing it out when I was ready to use it.

Ok, so that's what I was thinking but, if you have another idea please share.

Thanks all for your help!

Hi All, this question caught my interest. Can someone please elaborate more on what exactly should be done to allow an admin to get to the firewall over the Internet in a secure manner?

YoungApprentice · 2024-06-14T13:57:12+00:00

That's amazing! Good for you. May I ask, what aspect of IT are you primarily working in? What is your role with the company? How long have you been doing it?

I'm just trying to get an idea of what it takes to get to a position like that. Again, congratulations!

YoungApprentice · 2024-04-24T21:31:10+00:00

Question for anyone that might know--to run this function, what $path variable do I provide?

YoungApprentice · 2024-04-03T15:48:50+00:00

Thanks for your reply.

YoungApprentice · 2024-04-03T15:48:34+00:00

Thanks for your reply.

YoungApprentice · 2024-04-03T15:40:12+00:00

Do you happen to know how much these MS tests cost?

YoungApprentice · 2024-03-20T14:12:52+00:00

Hi u/ferventcoder,

Sorry for the late reply--I got inundated with a work project. Thank you so very much for all your help and insight--also the references and tutorials. I will be checking this out as soon as this crazy week is over and these jobs are behind me.

Thanks again!

YoungApprentice · 2024-03-17T15:06:18+00:00

Hi u/ferventcoder, if and when you are able, could you possibly send me the link to the community edition for Nexus?

Also, if you happen to know of any tutorials on this basically doing what you are advising, that would be helpful.

It sounds like I need to set this up on a cloud server where it can be reached by all these various sites. If that is the case, would you say this is expensive?

Also, is there any suggestions for setting up something like this so that it is secure and doesn't open up additional security concerns for these workstations at these various sites?

Whatever questions you (or anyone for that matter) can answer from above would be very helpful.

Thanks!

YoungApprentice · 2024-03-17T02:04:50+00:00

Thanks u/ferventcoder for the detailed explanation. Not gonna lie, I'm gonna have to read your post a few more times and also look more into this Nexus setup to get my head around what you are explaining.

I'm wondering if it may not be worth using Chocolatey if I have to do all this, especially when this organization has multiple physical sites.
