Getting the following error message when trying to add a camera I know to be at 192.168.1.42:

I had originally set my cameras up on a TP-Link AC3200 wireless router hard wired to a TP-Link TL-SG1016PE V3 | 16 Port Gigabit PoE Switch. Everything configured fine but the additional devices pushed the old router over its limit.

I bought a new netgear nighthawk router MR60 mesh router to replace the TP-link. Now none of configured cameras were reachable nor configurable from scratch. I am able to ping their IP addresses but I cannot get Blue Iris to recognize them.

any idea what I have messed up without knowing it?

Thanks

First thing is to verify the cameras are on your network.

I'm sure u know this...

Either of these options will tell your the ip address of the carmera.
- Can you log into the cameras web page?
- Is the camera connected to your router?
You can do this by logging into your router and checking the 'IP List' of connected devices.

yes. the cameras are on my network. I can ping them and I can see them in my router's connected device list.

I cannot connect to the camera's web page. They do not appear to have any. As I said before, these cameras worked fine before being forced to upgrade to a new routere.

I expect that the issue is that I need to open up certain ports in order for the cameras to work. The old router probably had that port already opened.
I just don't know what I need to change

If you can find a Camera Search program, it will tell you the IP & Port # of the cameras. I use 'SearchTool for MJPEG' by Tenvis version 4.0.0.3. It works on ALL IP cameras - not just Mjpeg cameras. If you double click a camera, it will open your web browser to that camera, if it has a web interface.

Open a cmd shell and enter: netstat -n
This gives me the IP addre4sses and port numbers of devices on my network.

There is a Foscam tool to find ip and port ect
