Getting the hang of it
I've just put in one of these nvrs. At the moment the cameras are being remotely accessed (rather than plugged in direct).
one curious problem is no matter what I do, the NVR won't take the assigned dhcp address from my router. It's gets one in the right subnet, but always chooses another address.
do these things have a dhcp server in them? And the setting under network, doesn't act as a client but a server.
does that mean, now that I have it forced to static, that if I connect a camera to it, they wont get an address?
is there a way to get the NVR to be a dhcp client...and yet still hand out addresses to the cameras? I was hoping to run them on their own network.
