Hi,
I will cancel my help request because I did put the lan cable from my camera in to a powerswitch and still having the same problem so I quess it has to do with the router or the camera itself.
Thank you for your help and keep up the good work...take care..

Hi DaneA,
Thank you for your reply.
Firmware version: 2.06.17
The IP adres camera was changed on PC thru a CMS program...on a moment the cam returned online for a couple of minutes again.
The weird part is when the pc is offline the cam connection is stable.
When the pc is comming online it's going offline and online randomly...but mostly offline.
Port 5 = PC
Port 2 = Cam
Port 1 = UTP from router.
Led lights at port 5 (PC) did not change at all.
The Led light on the right (left led is off) at port 2 (Cam) goes out for a second at some point, but most of the time it is blinking normaly while at the same time the led I see in the UTP cable connection towards the Cam is going out, slow blinking and sometime fast blinking when the Cam is working again. This all is happening while the led at port 2 is blinking as normal.
Greetings Eric
Sorry, forgot this one:
"Are both PC and the camera directly hardwired to the GS108Ev3? "
Yes, both are hardwired to port 2 and 5 of the switch.
