Good morning, I have a 16 ports Poe switch with NVR of just one network port.
I connected 9 cameras to the Poe switch and then connected my Poe to NVR, then I noticed that about 5 cameras are displaying in one port, switching from one to the other.
What should I do to have the cameras displayed in their individual ports?
Thanks you

What is the make and model of the NVR?
What is the make and model of the cameras?

The NVR must be designed and rated to handle a maximum number of cameras AND the total bandwidth of the connected cameras.

Don't connect all 9 cameras at the same time, unplug all of them for now.

You will use a PC to log into each camera's webGUI. Do you know the camera's default IP address?

Assign a unique, static IP to each camera and to the NVR's LAN, all in the same subnet but outside of the router's DHCP pool.

For instance if router's LAN (gateway) is 192.168.1.1 and its DHCP pool is from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.199, you can use 192.168.1.200 to 192.168.1.254 for your IP cameras.

If there is no router just assign unique static IP's to the cameras and to the NVR's LAN, all in the same subnet; you could use 192.168.1.200 for the NVR and 192.168.1.201 through .209 for your cameras.

Connect the NVR's LAN port to the POE switch. Take one camera, connect to the POE switch and add it to the NVR in the NVR's menu.
