Worked immediately when plugged in to cable to router and accessible via !P address or cloud acc in the App. However if you change the password on the camera and forget it you’re in trouble. The Forgot Password function provides a QR code which has ‘invalid format’ and gives a 404 error. There’s no reset button on the camera, so now the camera is unusable.
Hi there,
Thanks for the comment. You are correct and this is by design as a security measure. These are not consumer electronics from bunnings. When you purchase a proper security device, expect there to be security restrictions if you don't use it properly. Save yourself (and us an anonymous undeserved 1 star review) the headache by not forgetting your password. Resetting the camera by QR code is only possible to do if you've already connected the Uniarch app. In your case the only way to reset the password is for us to get reset codes from the manufacturer. You will need to reach out to us with your order number and name so we can advise the next step. In future, don't forget your password!

The product review is difficult to review as the installation seems to be far from simple, I've not installed this Uniarch before and I feel that the online information in the purchase of the item has been extremely disjointed, and being asked to pay for support. Really
Item was delivered on time service was very good, and the camera working well to
suite our need
Spy Monkey always has great prices and awesome service
(Spy Monkey were great - fast and easy to communicate with)
Camera itself is sold and decent quality. Set up is a bit convoluted given the camera insists on a particular IP address (192.168.1.108) - bit of a pain if you're not on that subnet etc. Would be much better if they were set to DHCP by default.
Other than that setup is reasonably painless and these work well with Frigate NVR.
Great to deal with

I have recently purchased the 6 cameras with 4tb drive. The price was very competitive. It was recommended by my son who is also an Electrician. Recently installed and we Re happy with the results.
Arrived very quickly , the cameras and DVR are a piece of cake to install , very clear images and easy search and AI playback .Great value and quality.
Exactly what I wanted
Item as described. Prompt delivery. Very happy.
Has changed the whole alarm platform from using hard to remember codes to an interface that makes it super easy to use. Don’t buy any other alarm system!
Spy Monkey is a refreshing company to deal with. They fully understand what customer satisfaction is all about. They take time to ensure that your aims and their products match. Their advice can be depended upon and their service is top shelf. After sale back up service and continued support is an ongoing feature of their business acumen.
Spy Monkey’s staff are friendly, thoughtful, helpful and skillful. We were fortunate to have done business with them and do most certainly recommend Spy Monkey for your home surveillance requirements.
Well done and we wish you every success.
Thank you,

Using the Wi-Tek 4g unit and an Aldi prepaid SIM card I have fast enough low-cost internet access for my 4 camera UniView security system and have Wi-Fi for other devices as required. This is a much cheaper solution than a NBN monthly subscription with more data and speed than I require. The guys at Sky Monkey are always helpful in recommending the right solution.
Great service
Helpful, prompt & fast shipping
Just purchased some other items
Keep up the great service
Great image and I am happy with the way I can be 400km and still see what is happening at my house!
Pretty cool bit of tech priced well and relatively easy to set up. Quick postage as well !
Excellent quality components. Set up was pretty easy. Items were sent straight away and arrived super fast. I would definately recommend this system to others.
easy and quick to order and delivered next day at no extra charge , great initial customer service with even better post purchase consultancy service helping me understand the vast features and functionalities of the Video Recorder to maximum potential- thank you this is the second time I purchased since my original purchase CCTV setup - and I can guarantee you it wont be the last . These guys are second to none in price , quality , delivery and back up customer service . PS this is not a paid advertisement
It's good when it's working well. Unfortunately the SMD video playback intermittently produces a blacked out image. It can only be reset back to normal by rebooting the NVR. Technical Support advised me this problem can be fixed if I update the firmware but I can't do it because I don't have a broadband connection. It would have been better if the updates were done before purchase.
