Note that there's been some question whether Dahua/Alhua cameras are phoning home to China; it's always a good idea not to give your cameras a valid default gateway IP, unless your network topology requires it -- most don't.

Peter I just saw this, I'll take a look and respond, I'm sure you either figured it out or moved on by now but I'll put some more configuration info on here in case it can help.

My computer with all the settings is in my garage not hooked up. I'm finishing up a major home renovation, when I get it hooked back up I was post that I have.
