The DHCP is greyed out and not able to toggle on
What about the edit pencil up near the top?

192.168.1.108 is the default static IP for a Dahua NVR or cam and the T-Mobile's on a different subnet.

@bigredfish , you da Dahua NVR man, I'm a BI guy so maybe you can't point this person in the right direction?

I dont use the direct machine interface to the NVR but via the web browser interface should be something like this

Or you could try and set a static address on the subnet of the T-Mobile box like this

The problem with DHCP is that it may assign a different IP each time it gets rebooted or your power goes out.

Assuming the TMobile is using 192.168.12.1 (this becomes your Gateway address) then assigning a fixed IP on 192.168.12.X should work. I just picked 200 but you could use any number between 2 and 254. Suggest 200-254

Your old router and the NVR were using 192.168.1.X and the NVR is currently using 192.168.1.108 so the NVR cant talk to the new TMobile device which is on 192.168.12.X

Ok, success just by changing it to dhcp and it works nicely. I will try changing it to the static in awhile.
I had roughly 9.5 mbps with the dsl and I could see my cams remotely but this TMobile tower gets me anywhere from 40-180 depending on day/time with just a "good" connection to my local cell tower and it's only $50mo.
im surprised that I cannot see the motion recordings from when I changed over to T-Mobile. I would've assumed the nvr was still recording and now I'm accessing that nvr.

Thanks so much guys!
