- Lew11Mar 15, 2024AspirantI was afraid of this too. I don't think this camera system is still supported as well. One more quick question here....If I had a managed switch, could I assign a static IP address to that connection? - FURRYe38Mar 15, 2024Guru - Experienced UserNot sure what you need a static IP address for. I know you can set static IP addresses on Cameras them selves. 
 Are you referring to a static IP address that is set ON devices or a IP address reservation that are configured on a network router?What router system do you have or using? No. - Lew11Mar 16, 2024AspirantWell, the camera system I have has its own server/storage device that has an ethernet connection. In its setup it says it needs to be setup to a static IP address for its connection. I had it setup before on a hughesnet system, although it did not work well. The cameras themselves only talk back to their own server and then its ethernet cable connects to my Netgear router. I hope I have explained this correctly. Thanks for your help also!
