IP address issues

[Mars Bar]

Ok before i start smashing everything ive come for help LOL
NVR internal NIC is 192.167.x.x
All my cameras are 192.167.x.x

Purchased a new camera, logged into it UI on my PC and I can't change the IP to 192.167 its only allowing 192.168.

Help?!?!!!?

Try a different browser? Probably one of those cameras sensitive to Internet Explorer!

You realize that more info might be helpful, don't you?

• Is NVR a POE NVR where the cams are plugged in or are the cams plugged into a POE switch?
• Make/model of NVR?
• Make/model of the new cam?

But certainly, consider @wittaj 's suggestion first as it's a common issue.

Ive tried both POE into the nvr and thru a switch.
NVR has hikvision software
Camera is a no name brand from china but was recommended from a user on here. When I load it up in webpage it comes up as Dahua but the UI isn't Dahua.
I can change the ip to anything on the 192.168 but not to 167 so my NVR won't see it.

Have you tried logging into cam and setting to DHCP (not a static IP) and then plugging into NVR POE port?

Yep didn't do anything

For starters the 192.167.x.x subnet is not part of the RFC1918 non-routable IP block, that may or may not have a direct impact on your issue.

I have no idea what that means LOL

It means you should change all your IP addresses to something in 192.168.x.x.

 

[wittaj]

It means that there are ranges identified as being internal, private LAN. The fact that you have a system set up as 192.167.x.x. means that something is royally messed up. That could be a WAN IP and the whole world is seeing your stuff.

These are the ranges for LAN private IP addresses and you are outside of it for your LAN:

10.0.0.0 – 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 – 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255

Yeh so how do I change the internal NIC address for the NVR to 168 instead of 167?

 

[wittaj]

Same way you would change a camera IP address. Find the networking tab in the NVR and change it.

It wont let me change it to 192.168.0.x as the modem gateway starts at 168.0.1

 

[wittaj]

Will it let you change to any of the other IP ranges I posted above? Most NVRs go with 10.0.0.X

Ok i manged to change it to 192.168.1.x but camera still wants 192.168.0.x it says IP doesn't match gateway.
Gateway is 192.168.0.x

 

[wittaj]

I guess make the NVR 192.168.0.x ?

I hope this no name camera is worth it

Which camera is it BTW, it seems weird it isn't letting you change stuff. Wonder if it wants to be able to phone home?

 

[Mars Bar]

192.168 0 says internal conflict.
So i tried 10.0.0.x and its now all that, the camera just sits saying "detecting"

Recommended on here by someone and the Aliexpress sellers has 5 star reviews. Andy something i think was the seller.

 

[wittaj]

If it is from @EMPIRETECANDY, a reputable seller here, then the camera should be fine as it would be a Dahua OEM.

At this point I would say factory reset it and try over.
