    I understand adding a second router to my network would create problems. I learned that in the crash networking course someone in this thread started me on(quite the rabbit hole adventure). However my goal here was to create a entirely independent WiFi network without access to my existing WiFi...

    Yeah like Looney said someone had me take an entire crash course in networking and I had try to tinker with everything I could as much as possible.

    After quite a while of trouble shooting the settings for the camera with Looney he had me try a different router in my house and of course the cameras link light fired right on proving it was my spare router not playing nice.

    Still having a major issue. Have set up static ip's with each camera gave them my routers IP as the gate way and changed the subnet mask to the correct info.

    Thanks I downloaded these and will read thru however I'm so close I feel like I'm just missing a setting cause right now every thing works but wifi. I've been looking thru the browser settings for what I'm missing but being in the south east the snow really bump my plans to low priority
