    I think that it's a bit of a misnomer. Others will correct me if I'm wrong, but DHCP is mainly a server option that dispenses IP addresses to clients that request them. On a camera, it just means that if it's enabled, the camera will request an IP address OTHERWISE, if DHCP is disabled, you must...

    It sounds like DHCP is not enabled in the cameras, otherwise problem solved...

    Did you assign each camera a different IP address??

    So, to conclude..... You have a new NVR which has 6 cameras attached and now 5 are working?

    Sounds like cable, BUT, I'd move one of the other working cameras to the port that says disconnected to check if it's the port. Just go through a process of elimination

    It's got to get power from somewhere.... if it's just POE, it's just the 1 connection otherwise find where the 12V power source is coming from

    You can always unplug the POE cable from the other end :-) You will just need a trusty assistant to give orders to!

    You don't need to remove the base. See youtube

    There should be a reset button on the PCB. Remove all power then hold down the button for 20 seconds whilst plugging the POE back in. I think that's correct

    Thanks. I'm just being lazy. I built my first computer with an 8088 processor with 64Mb RAM AND a HUGE HUGE 5Mb hard disk with 5.25 floppies. If you understand that then you're too old! (-:

    It's a NetComm, but a cheapie supplied by the broadband supplier. Time to unwrap the ASUS.

    I think someone else suggested resetting the cameras. I think that is your most practical solution. Zero out of 10 for the previous owner leaving you in the mud up to your ears

    Great site 1. Target site (my router) actively rejected uPNP probes 2. 80 / 81 and 443 are open 3. Port 139 does not appear to exist and unable to connect to NetBios

    I did mention that I just deleted my external IP address from BI web server. I would assume that BI will now only serve to my local IP addresses?? Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm happy to PM my external IP to you if you can help me understand this. Thanks Pete If BI web server is THAT...

    This is really difficult...

    On my NVR, I have a button to "refresh" (ie look for) all connected cameras. I still stick with the idea that the previous owner selected a different sub-net range (192.168.254.x) than what your default range is set on your NVR. Is there a setting on your NVR that allows you to set a different...

    I get the first IP address out of the Netherlands... BI exposes port 81..... I just disabled external IP access for BI. See if that makes a change

    Using reverse IP lookup at reverseip.domaintools.com shows BOTH IP addresses as hosting no domains (ie, no results found). Is the BI web server safe??

    Are these intrusions or uninvited guests?

    uPNP is OFF on the router. The only access set up is the web server through BI. Is that a problem? The only DIRECT access to the internet is on a different sub-net range through WiFi, and the cameras don't even go through the router. I'm a bit mystified.

    If the address of your router is not 192.168.254.1, you may (probably) will not be able to connect because the camera is on a different sub-net. If you have a network configuration utility on your MAC, try and find the router IP address. The reason I suggested connecting directly to the NVR is...

    Did you try and connect the IP camea to the NVR using a short ethernet cable? You now have the IP (192.168.254.12 )

    Because the cameras sit BEHIND the NVR. They will not appear with IP addresses inside the 1.2 to 1.254 range. My cameras sit in the sub-net 10.10.x.x There could also be something wrong with your ethernet cables, like being cut! You need to take down the easiest accessible camera and connect it...

    This is really difficult...

    It really does sound like the previous owner has assigned an IP range to the cameras that is "not normal". Assuming that your NVR CAN be seen on the router, it is because it has DHCP set and it is getting it's IP address assigned by the router. This is NOT the case for the cameras. The NVR has...
