Camera IP Address

Post by ave13co »

So I bought the 960H withj 4 cameras. I go through the setup wizard and cant seem to get any IP address's for any of the cameras. The DVR has an IP address but none of the cameras are showing on the IP page. In fact that page is mt..doesnt show a thing.

My router has enoUgh address and I have it set for DHCP...So why arent the cameras coming up? They are live and I can see them on the screen.

Hello ave13co,

The cameras that comes with the 960H DVR are not IP based and so they do not get an ip address. They just connect to the DVR and the DVR processes the video input for recording and live stream etc. The DVR itself connect to the network and so has an ip address. Are you facing any issue with getting the live feed of the cameras to work?

No issues other than me not understanding. The users guide is mis-leading and made me think the cams would have an IP address.
Still learning about the system. I am sure I will have more questions...Thank you
