Manually adjust the IP addresses of multiple cameras:

If there are more than 1 camera to be used in the same local area network and there is no DHCP

server to assign unique IP addresses to each of them, all of the cameras would then have the

initial IP address of

192.168.0.100

, which is not a proper situation for network devices

– all the IP

addresses have to be different from each other. The easiest way to assign cameras the IP

addresses is by using

IP Utility

:

With the procedure shown above, all the cameras will have unique IP addresses, starting from

192.168.0.101. In case there are 20 cameras selected, the last one of the cameras would have

the IP 192.168.0.120.

Later, by pressing the

“Refresh” button of the IP Utility, you will be able to see the list of cameras

with their new IP addresses.

Please note that it is also possible to change the IP addresses manually by using the Web

browser. In such case, please plug in only one camera at a time, and change its IP address by

using the Web browser before plugging in the next one. This way, the Web browser will not be

confused about two devices having the same IP address at the same time.
