Does this NAS have any built in surveillance capabilities for cameras on the network?

Yes, the out-of-the-box license will allow you to monitor up to 1 camera only. You need to buy more license if you have more cameras to monitor.
1364568
Yes, it does. "Surveillance Station". I believe if you have more than 2 cameras you may need to purchase a license for it. I have it loaded but have yet to configure it.
1364569
Yes. The system ships with 1 free license (2 depending on your software version) while additional licenses can be purchased from Amazon and others. Generally, most reviewers have complained about the high cost of adding more than 1 camera to the Synology NAS. I would not recommend Synology if cost is a concern. At the time of this review, a single camera license costs around $50. The camera cost is additional, this is a S/W activation license for the Synology NAS only.

I don't believe so but I really don't know, I didn't pay that much attention when I installed it; but it does have a video input for a security camera or camera for viewing whilst backing up.

Hi Nat.... I have a 3TB 2-bay NAS, and the AIOS sees it fine under the Network\'NASName' heading. All I had to do was mount the directories I wanted to share.

As far as I know it will only record to internal hard drive. There was no set up I could use to record to my computer's harddrive through the Internet. I'm not familiar with the NAS.

Yes. It can handle many nas. The more files you have the router out its to search for them.

Yes, but you can turn on live monitoring as soon as you receive a motion detection notice. On my network there is a ten second delay, which is ok for me.

Hello yes this NAS is network secured with group security. it's easy to configure & stable. They only last 3-5 yrs though so do your backups!

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

You can see all the computers - regardless of which network they come in on. But I cannot see how to monitor each network individually.

I use the Qnap NAs that has the software for it. It also serves as my Media Center NAS so I can watch the camera video on my smart TVs as well.

Hello friends, this is the network camera, support web site monitoring, support password control.

The DNR and attached hard drive have to be in the same local network. You can playback the video that is recorded from anywhere. Maybe there is some hack that would make the DNR think the cameras are attached locally but not sure how that would work. The software it comes with is pretty clunky. This is no industrial setup to say the least.

No but you should be able to connect your tv to your network and access the files on the NAS if it is DLNA compatible.

Unfortunately this system does not support backing up video to a NAS Drive. We currently do not have any surveillance systems which support that feature. You can backup video directly to a USB Flash Drive and also you can backup video over the network onto a computer. Thank You,

I have followed S. Gao's advice and I got the camera to work with a Synology DS214play NAS with Surveillance Station. However, I had to select Brand: Samsung and model: Samsung SNB-5000 camera. I then changed the resolution and some other settings to better match this camera.

Yes there is . I have a similar setup with a nas and a node that is connected to a router. I can access the Nas quite well. Actually better than my very expensive routers wifi. However be sure your settings are right on the node as you can isolate your network from users on either wifi login. hope this helps
