Hi.

I have a wireless Hik Vision CCTV camera which I can view the footage from via Hik Connect on my Android phone.
I was doing some work on my router and I noticed, in the ARP table, that the router had given the MAC address of this CCTV camera two seperate ip addresses.
I only have one LAN.
Why would this camera ask for two ip addresses?
Thank you.
Roger

My Amcrest (Dahua) IP2M-841's are wired or wireless and each NIC can have a unique IP and a unique MAC address; yours is one MAC for 2 IP's ( one wired, 1 wireless) as only 1 will be in use at a time.
Sounds about right.
