Hi there,
First of all, thanks for all of the info on the forums here, there are lots of great people and a great knowledge base.
I have been building up my IP cam assets around the house for the last couple years. I have also recently wired my house for Cat 6. I have a couple legacy cameras, a Sony SNC-DM160, and another. The DM160s have been my workhorse for a couple years now, running off a POE, and still worked off the cat6 wiring job for the house. I recently added two hikvision cams, both POEs, and an AmCrest NVR. The Amcrest is working well with the Hikvision cams, as well as a wifi baby monitor.
Around the time that I did the NVR, the two Sonys disappeared from my network. I can't find them. Both show power and network on the units, and my POE unit shows power, and the network lights on the switch blink as I interrupt the cameras. Any ideas on what is going on?
I used Fing on my network, and it shows my sony cam offline since July 24th. Are my cameras dead, or is there a way to find them again?
