Can't find NVR on the network, and, SMTP issues
Posted: Wed Nov 08, 2017 6:56 pm
I have the 3MP NVR POE system I purchased some 6 months ago, but installing it now. After basic installation, I can see the camera on the monitor that I connect to the NVR. All good till this point.
Problem-1:
I then connect the NVR to the router. I can see the NVR connected to my router inside the router GUI, with the ip 192.168.1.175. I installed the ip config software on a computer on same network, but do not see the NVR device in it. I also tried assigning a port inside the NVR gui and and when i go to the link 192.168.1.175:<PORT>, it asks me to download the exe and install. I install the exe, but there is no change. I get the same page after installation. What am I doing wrong? I just cannot get this to work inside the home network so i can view cameras from another home computer on the same network.
Problem-2:
Send email button is not working. I am assuming once i am able to connect and see the NVR on the network this issue will be resolved too.
Can this be a defective item, I am also starting to wonder?
Thanks
