I have 2 dome cameras (DS-2CD2132-I and DS-2CD3132-I) and a bullet camera (DS-2CD2032-I). All are V5.2.0 build 140721. All of them are configured identically except each has a different "Device No.", "Server Port" and "IPv4 Address", i.e.
I don't have any issue with the two dome cameras. However, the bullet camera keeps on losing it's signal. Sometimes after just a few minutes and sometime after a few hours. Interestingly, although I lose the video signal, the IR lights are still on (red). So the connection is there. Also I have switched Ethernet cables from one of the dome cameras with the bullet camera but the dome camera still works fine and the bullet camera doesn't, hence it's not the cable. I also switched ports of the bullet and dome camera one me PoE switch but still get the same behavior, i.e. it's not the port on the PoE switch. There are no electrical wires that run parallel to the Ethernet cable of the bullet camera. The Ethernet cable is a CAT5e.
Has anybody else experienced this or has any suggestions?
