You need to change these setting within your camera's configuration.
You may need to enable Virtual Host to access them directly:

Ok mate thanks. I just put the ip address into web browser for my nvr. And I need a user name and password to log in online
Is this the user name and password I use to log in online with? It says admin is the user name. But I didn’t set the password either the installer did. Crap.

Assuming your NVR is connected to your network, and you have a PC on the same network, log into your NVR using Internet Explorer (not Edge).
Just type your NVR's IP address into the address bar, then login (user name is admin by default, password will be as you/your installer have set).
Then, assuming your cameras are directly connected to your NVR, follow the virtual host instructions at post #5.
This will provide you with a new column of links to your cameras from within the Camera Management area of your NVR.
You can then click those links to access each camera in a new browser tab and change its settings as per post #3.

Done it mate thanks for that! Let’s see if it’s better at night now!
If it’s still not good enough can you recommend another cam that’s best in the night?
A mate of mine has some Dahua starlight cams think there 2mp and the night vision is way better than my 4K! Prob because his has stayed in colour and mine switched to black and white

Still wasn’t any good mate
What camera can you recommend that will stay in colour with street lights that is the best! My budget is £300 per camera could push to £400.
Just want atleast 1 camera that is in colour at night that’s good! My streetlights are about 8m away from my door
I have tested some Hikvision cameras in low light without IR. Darkfighter cameras worked quite well but were expensive. I bought three Milesight 2 MP cameras last December and have now pretty good idea about their capabilities. As far as I understand they have even more sensitive models in the pipeline. Phil could perhaps cast some light on it?
This story about their use includes their model numbers and some videos - mostly in low light. (all links still work except the first one)
