Hikvision NVR + wireless cam setup question

[klasipca]

I am configuring Hivkision NVR with wifi cam. I have set up all my wired cams, but not have much luck with single Hikvision wifi camera. I've set static ip to 254 subnet and getting Network Abnormal. Ports are default and password is correct. Is there anything else I might be missing? TIA!

Cam config:
IPv4 Address: 192.168.254.9

IPv4 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0

IPv4 Default Gateway 192.168.254.1

does your access point have wireless isolation enabled or any kind of security to protect the wireless clients?

It's a netgear router, but no I don't see anything about having isolation enabled or any extra security besides WPA2.

You are setting the camera IP address up as if it is connected to a PoE port, which by default use the 192.168.254.0/24 address range. That is separate from the LAN address range.
Assuming the WiFi the camera is connected to uses the LAN address range, you need to assign it in some way (static or DHCP reservations) a suitable IP address in the LAN range.
'Network abnormal' simply means it cannot connect to the camera address.

I'm presuming that you haven't got your LAN address range set up the same as the usual range used by PoE ports on a Hik PoE NVR.

Got it, all good, just needed to be in the same subnet that's all. Thank you!

That can sometimes make all the difference ...
