If Yes, if using PoE Switch, is it connected to a proper internet outlet and operating properly?
Make sure the PoE Switch is connected to a router/modem and the ports that have devices connected to them
have a green LED on.
If Yes, is the computer on the same network as the MEGApix® 1080™ camera?
Camera and computer should be connected to the same router. Contact your network administrator if you have
more than one network available.
If Yes, try pinging the IP camera's default IP address 192.168.1.123
From your desktop, go to Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. Type "ping 192.168.1.123" and press
Enter. If you get the message "Request timed out," camera is not connected. Camera is connected if you get data.

That specific Switch Port may be damaged or currently not working properly.
If Yes, try resetting the camera to default settings.
Press the 2 buttons in the back together and hold for 5 seconds. The camera will return to factory default with
