First off I am new here and new to IP cameras as well I am somewhat tech savvy, but can not figure out what I am doing. I have 4 of the above mentioned Dahua security cameras with Eyesurv ION 8 channel NVR. I also have a tp-link 8 port POE switch. I have the NVR connected to the Switch as well as running my network cable to a port on the switch. And have one have camera connected to it now since i have read they all have the same IP address out of the box. The NVR is connected to the network, but when I search for the cameras it cant find them. I tried using a IP camera finder software from my laptop to search for them, but that doesn't show it. I am pretty sure I am doing something wrong, but I have no idea what it could be. If i could get some help, I would be greatly appreciative.
Thank you
