F Series Ip Camera Setup For Mac
I have a Sinocam IP-camera which was connected to a Huawei b593 4g router, until a supposed computer engineer fiddled with the cameras settings and rendered it unusable. The camera ships with a static ip address of 192.168.1.100, but does not respond to pings on that address any more. The camera is connected to the router with an ethernet cable, I have tried several cables to exclude cable problems. After sending an email to the (chinese) producer of the camera asking them for help, I got a reply that said (quote): Please change your PC with fix IP address and add 192.168.5.xxx, 192.168.1.xxx I think they mean that I should put a static ip address on my computer and then I should be able to connect to the camera. I have tried but it does not work. I have tried nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24 and nmap -A -T4 192.168.1. but the camera does not seem to be listed.
How can I troubleshoot this? There is no reset button on the camera.
The email from the producer tries to explain how to reset it by using telnet. I tried the camera on a different router, but everything still behaves the same. The camera does not show up on any of the routers 'connected devices' page. I tried to connect to the camera by setting a static ip on my laptop and connecting them directly with an ethernet cable, but I got no response from the cameras static ip address or from nmap. I tried again to connect to the camera, but it did not work.
What I tried:. set my ip to static 192.168.1.14. reboot. Apple spyware and adware remover for mac.
connect camera directly to computer with ethernet cable. execute nmap -sP 192.168.1.0-255 - only my computers address showed up. execute telnet 192.168.1.100 - 'could not connect' I tried once more to connect the camera directly to my laptop, but it did not work. Here's what I did:.

Purchased a twisted network cable and connected my laptop and camera with it. Set my laptops static ip to 192.168.1.13, I also tried 192.168.5.13. Performed nmap, ping and telnet commands in cmd to no avail. I'm at a loss here. Maybe the camera is just broken.
