Hi, I'm have a real newbie problem, thought it was as easy as plugging cat 5, here's my dilemma: I needed to move my NVR to another building so after doing some research into POE switches and camera power usage, this is what I bought and did: I bought a Dlink gigabit it has 4 POE and a total of 52 watts power out put. I then ran a 30m Cat5e cable to the new location for my NVR. I plugged, 3 Dahua IPC-HDW4300C ip cameras (power consumption 4.5w each) into the POE ports and the Cat5e into the Non-POE port on the Dlink, and the other end of the Cat5e into Camera Port 1 on my NVR. I thought the Dlink switch would work out the ip address of the Cameras and tell the NVR then show my 3 Cameras ? but it only shows 1 ?? Is there any config I need to do? Dlink and Dahua links for spec below, thanks in advance Swatter the newbie lol http://www.dlink.com/uk/en/business-solutions/switching/unmanaged-switches/desktop/dgs-1008p-8-port-gigabit-poe-unmanaged-switch http://www.dahuasecurity.com/products/ipc-hdw4300c-620.html
