justaddsun 0 Posted September 25, 2014 I am trying to get a hikvision bullet camera hooked up to my network. it is poe so I bought a tplink poe switch. Plugged my comcast modem, netgear router and camera into the switch. IR lights up on camera and internet works fine, but when I run SADP software no cam shows up. I logged into my router and do not see it there which i guess makes sense, but now I am stumped as to how to get this camera id on my network. Any help is greatly appreciated!! running windows 7 and blue iris on pc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boogieman 1 Posted September 25, 2014 your modem should not be plugged into your switch Modem>wan port on router> switch plugged into one of your router ports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justaddsun 0 Posted September 25, 2014 ok thanks I can see it on my router now, but when I add it to blue iris i get an error saying to check the ip address and port. sadp says ip is 192.168.1.16 and port is 8000. BI won't work with these. sorry for the questions, but i really would like to get this set up tonight so i can monitor my new puppy. Thanks!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
