lens covers are off and i can see light through the lens when i look through.
no switches that i can see only a reset one
the camera has a 12v psu plugged into it for power and just a ethernet cable. the ethernet cable comes straight out and into the home hub
and thats the problem...
so camera say 192.168.1.214 on it
the camera software says 192.168.1.214 but realtek
and connections manager says realtek
im completely lost and it seems like rocket science to get this camera to work
]when i go into port forwarding setting in my bt homehub it picks up an hd camera, all the computer picks up is a realtek thing.
i get the feeling the computer isnt picking the camera up, anyone offer any further advice

The ip address on top of the camera is 192.168.1.214.
When I go into the camera software the ip address of the realtek device its picking up is 192.168.1.214
the computer is connected to my bt homehub via a cable. the ip camera is plugged into my bt homehub via cable also.
im not saying the camera is in the device manager. but whatever the cctv program is picking up is in the device manager??

heres a little something i just picked up on
when i go into the ip camera software its picks up what im assuming to be the camera - realtek RT8139....
ive just gone into device manager and network adaptors and it says realtek RT8139...

yeah i know as always in life money is an issue and this machine is used for cctv recording only. nothing else
so providing the ip camera works and recorded in HD i dont care. i can take the footage and display it on another machine to see its high quality if need be. im guessing it would...
yeah it does sadly
the spec of my cctv desktop computer are on the first page. it would be nice to be able to use that but if i have to buy a new one so be it.
£30 i can cope with, not got a clue what am looking for though.
