Thank you for the video. I had a slightly different problem. I was adding a camera to an NVR and the NVR could not seem to see the camera. I just needed to reconfigure it via a PC first so that the NVR could see it. Was not all that different than for your streaming camera. This was helpful in that regard. I think that people underestimate the value of companies putting up content like this for their products. I would definitely consider your products for streaming because of this effort on your part.
Hi John, thank you! If you are looking for your IP Address on your computer, the easiest method is to open up Command Prompt and type in "IPCONFIG". This command will populate all your network information for your computer including IP Address. Thanks for commenting and watching!
I have an interesting question. I set up static IP addressed on two NDi cameras + IP controller but not on my PC because I was not able to go online with an static IP on my PC. How can I set up an static IP on my PC and still be able to go online?
Hi Jon, I recommend using an Advanced IP scanner to view all the IP devices on the Network. You can download it for free, great tool. You can choose a Host ID that is not currently in use. If your network is for example 192.168.10.1, you will want to use the same scheme, but change the last number field to a number not being used by another device. For example, 192.168.10.120. The Host ID is 120, as long as no other device has this same number it will work. Example 192.168.10.120 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.1. DNS 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 Hopefully, this helps, thanks for stopping by!
Hello, the Network Switch requires a connection to a Router for streaming to TH-cam or Facebook, preferably a 3rd party router like NetGear. You may use the Service Providers Router as well, but it is not as reliable as the one you would purchase from an Electronics Store. Please let us know if you need any help! Info@BZBGEAR.COM Thanks for Watching!
Hi nice video. Will be purchasing A ptz CAMERA SOON. A couple of questions.. So you set up it own IP address 1st then you connect it up to a router or wirecast to go POE? Meaning not using power on PTZ. Another question. I'm setting this camera about 75 ft from the computer, my plan is to go SDI to a video capture card go in SDI out usb into the computer. Or can it get video from the ethernet cable? Or should I just call you guys? Thanks for your help...
Hi Mike, yes, you will need to change the IP address of the camera to match your Networks IP. You can use Command Prompt to achieve this information by typing in "IPCONFIG". This will display all the required network info for your device. This can be accomplished with a direct connection to a laptop via ethernet port or you can use the Wi-Fi adapter settings shown in this video. Note, this video shows a different model known as the BG-VPTZ-10HSU3, so the IP and Web interface are different. But the concept is the same for the computer information. Feel free to shoot us an email or call us for more information, we also offer free design assistance! Info@BZBGEAR.COM or Tel: 1(888)499-9906 Thanks for commenting and watching!
I have selected the internet protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4) properties in the open dialogue box the IP address shows no numbers! why is that and what shall I do? can you help please? thanks
how does this work if adobe flash is no longer available. i am trying to get my ptzoptics live stream camera to be seen on the network and the steps used here did not work. can you help. Thanks
Hello, BZBGEAR's BG-LVPTZ camera shown in this video comes with a default IP address 192.168.5.163. This video explains how to change that IP address to match your Local Area Network so it can communicate with other devices on the Network. If you purchased a BZBGEAR camera and are having any issues, please call our Tech Support Department or drop an email. Tel: 1(888)499-9906 or Support@BZBGEAR.com Thanks for watching and commenting!
DJ PHILL - your questions are a little more involved than we can answer in a chat. If you'd like some assistance give us a call at 888-660-2962. Our support team is always on hand to assist!
Hi, yes. IP cameras have a WebGUI that contains the settings for Streaming, Video and Audio adjustments and PTZ control. You do not have to Network cameras if you are only using the Video output such as HDMI to a Capture device, but it is highly recommend for the best quality image since lighting can be so challenging. As well, if you would like any control of the cameras movements over the LAN, you will need to Network the camera. Thanks for watching!
No. this is the hard way. Normally it is easier to install the config or search tool of the specific camera, then set it. without need to change to static ip.
These instructions don't appear to work in Windows 11. You cannot change your adapter options when selecting Ethernet. How do you do this in Windows 11?

This was good , So i'm trying to get a wireless PTZ to talk to a wireless network router that my laptop is plugged into, i'm hoping u or someone has a video for that one , thks ...
HI, thanks! You can do the same procedure, but instead of reconfiguring the LAN Adapter Card, choose the WIFI adapter and do the same process. You will only be able to see the camera once configured. Once you change the cameras IP address to match your LAN, then revert your computer WiFi back to DHCP. You can refer to this video for that process. th-cam.com/video/WAsT9aWev8w/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching, hope this helps!
@@BZBTVchannel That video link is good too and since im playing with just one camera i can leave out the router and connect directly with wifi to the laptop. perfect thanks !
Hi Benny, there are multiple options to choose from. WebGui Ir Remote Free PTZ control program for iOS devices and PC/MACS Joystick Controller Thanks for watching!
I keep getting stuck when I enter the IP address in the browser. I don't het a prompt to enter a username and password. I turned off my pop up block and still isn't working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello, which model do you have? Depending on when you bought the camera, it sounds like it may be related to a firmware update required for the HTML5 web browser update.

We had a security system set up with 6 cameras and the guy that installed it at our business can access our cameras anytime, I DO NOT LIKE THAT! How can I prevent him from watching our business through our cameras
HI, call the company that made the product with your current username and password and ask them to change it to what you request. Just need a new password basically! Thanks for stopping by!
You forgot a crucial part - how the hell do you find out the ip address?? E.g. you "knew" that the camera was on 192.168.5 - how did you work that out????
