Notes:
- The IP address, for example, if the camera's IP address is 192.168.177.105, set the IP address to 192.168.177.X. X is the figure you chose, which should not be the same as the camera.
- The IP address is 255.255.255.0.
After connecting your cameras directly to your PC, you can now access Reolink cameras without the use of a router. You can access the cameras using Reolink Client. If you can connect to this camera via your PC client, please set a static IP address for it in case the IP address shifts the next time you connect.
