Hi all, I just wanted to give an update on this post. My problem was apparently a bad router. I kept having the same issue then suddenly I could no longer access the router at all. It had power but that was it. I added a new tp-link router today and set it's IP to 192.168.0.4 so that it...

No there is no etherenet port, just a micro usb port. I'll go ahead and remove the gateway IP when I'm able to get back into the cameras then.

The modem is a ZTE MF90. It's pretty much just a cell phone and wifi hotspot in one. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/984161/Zte-Mf90.html?page=3#manual

I'd say that all sounds about right :) What I'm thinking of doing is having somebody take a laptop to the location and connect it to the router to see if I can ping or have them ping the cameras or access their control panels. Maybe I can change the router's IP to .4 but then wouldn't they...

Yes it's a wifi router but I haven't been able to test that out because when I type in the router's IP, I get the modem's login page instead.

I keep thinking that the problem is that each wifi camera has a setup page like this: Static IP: 192.168.0.X Router IP: 192.168.0.1 So since the new modem also has the .1 IP then the cameras can't connect to the router since they're looking for that same .1, but then why do the wired cameras...

Wow that's very cool man. That's exactly how my system is setup.

No because the modem is wireless and just connect to the BI computer via wifi.

I agree but the weird thing then is why do the three cameras connected via ethernet to the router work fine?

If I had another computer connected to the router then I bet I could probably access the camera browser pages locally. I think I'm going to ask somebody to I tried but I can't ping them form that BI computer. If I had another computer connected to the router and not the modem then I bet I...

Yes they should all still be connected via wifi since everthing is the same as it was before I I added the cellular modem to the BI computer. Problem is that I can't even access any of the wifi cameras' control panels via the browser, even outside of BI.

Correct, every other camera connects via wifi. It's just odd that three cameras connected via ethernet cable are working fine even though those are still on the same network and looking for the same .1 router.

I can only view the three hard wired cameras that connect directly to the router.

Unfortunately no.

That was the first thing that I tried to do but the ZTE modem does not allow it. :banghead:
