More than possibly. Almost certainly. Its ok to have 100Mbps per camera if it has a 1Gb uplink, but it doesnt, so everything bottlenecks between that switch and your router.The switch is 100mbps which I didn't know until now. That could possibly be the issue.
Excuse me, but why not a gigabit switch?The solution should be simple and cheap though; get a gigabit router. (make sure its a router, not a switch or hub, as the camera's probably dont do gigabit ethernet).
Oh, ok, I guess that applies to cut-through switches which have no store-and-forward, or low quality switches.Well, it depends on the switch, but all hubs and some switches will use the lowest negotiated speed on all ports. So you if you connect a 100Mbs ethernet of the camera, the port towards the router or PC will also work at 100 Mbs, even though the PC and the hub/switch can do Gbit. Some will claim to do mixed speeds, but still end up working at 100Mb most of the time, some will do mixed speeds properly, but if you get a Gb router, you can be pretty sure they will do mixed speeds.
