IP: 192.168.1.50
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1 (router)

for testing i make different gateways for cameras
CAM 1 Gateway: 192.168.1.50
CAM 2 Gateway: 192.168.1.1

i took all this stuff in home and 2 days trying to finish that job :(

Well first thing I see is if cams are plugged into nvr they shouldn’t have 192 addresses. Should be 10.x.x.x by default. Second if those aren’t dahua cams you’re probably going to have to put them on a poe switch and configure onvif

i can change camera IPs to 10.x.x.x and what this give me? that NVR have POE ports but cameras dont have poe support because when i turn on POE ports cameras not working (checket with infrared)

The nvr issues it’s own lan addresses in the 10 range so traffic isn’t bouncing all over primary network. If those ip cams aren’t poe I’d get better cams.

If they’re onvif compliant and you put on a switch you’ll have to manually add from camera list and change from private to onvif, fill in user/pass and connect.

try clicking on "edit" by the red status button. Then try inputting the camera's username and password in to that menu.

or if you reallyscrewed up , delete both cameras and go to Device search and relocate the cameras and get that USEr/Pass installed before you add it to the bottom of that page. maybe...i can't remember exactly the steps

You want the IP address of the cameras to be assigned by the NVR,,,it the 10.x.x.x address range.
It wont connect to a camera hooked directly to the NVR switch with an address of 192.168.1.xxx.
put the cameras to DHCP for IP address. then disconnect them /reboot them and the add them again.
