Ethernet Adapter Has Invalid Ip Address

In the past 15 years I have used various brands and models of video surveillance cameras for our home and Japanese garden. I have sought to buy high-quality products equipped with PTZ and Power-over-Ethernet that were provided with user-friendly documentation. When it came time to replace several older cameras I discovered this Lorex model at B&H and purchased one. Features that first delighted me: (1) It came equipped for either surface (ceiling) or wall mount (and with all the hardware necessary); (2) among its features was ONVIF capability (connect it to your router or switch and it adopts an IP address granting access consistent with your network); (3) use a browser to go to that assigned IP address and a Lorex control panel opens in which you can assign a fixed IP address (good practice for 24/7 camera use); (4) superb industrial design (example: installation last step is attaching the dome under the camera from below, but delightfully the screws for that are lossless--designed into the dome mechanism so they won't fall out; (5) carefully prepared documentation that, while it requires carefully reading, leaves nothing to chance; (6) even the tools you need are included as is a 100-foot length of Ethernet cable; (7) the camera's images are clear, crisp, and nicely color balanced; (8) low light levels are quite good (but it does not provide IR light for total darkness, some ambient light is necessary). So, after that experience with my first purchase, I have since purchased two more. Two cameras are installed and the third is on its way to me from B&H. (By the way, early on I asked a question of Lorex tech support and they were back to me in a day!) This is the camera I have long hoped to find. And the price is right! Thank you Lorex and B&H.

This little adapter has been tough to find, with the shortage of electronics parts that even now, is still going on. After much searching, I noticed that B&H had it in stock, so I grabbed one. Delivery was quick, and it allows me to print without hooking my computer up to a USB cable connected to the printer, or using a flash drive. You will need to determine the IP address once this is attached to the printer and it can see your WiFi network. That is easily determined by going into the settings and printing out the configuration sheets. Knowing the IP address allows you to wirelessly see supply levels, notifications, and other settings. In my mind, this purchase was a no-brainer!

I have a wifi only laptop that I wanted to use to test a newly purchased IP camera on. The adapter allowed me to connect a ethernet cable to my IP camera for testing. After giving the adapter a IP address in the same range as the camera my system connect with the camera perfectly. I would highly recommend this adapter for anyone needing to add ethernet wired access to there wifi laptop.

Easy to setup and configure. See exactly what you have plugged in and what IP address is on each port for identification.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently switched to this router because the one I had kept switching my ip address. My internet would go out and equipment would not work. I'm glad I switched.

It's a wire. I love it. Just when everything is going wireless, it's nice to know that sometimes, you can get by without an IP address. I'm sure some other brand will sell you a wire for 10x the price, but in the end, it's still a wire. This wire does its job well. What's not so good about it? It's 3' long. So if you're plugging it into your phone or mp3 player, and it falls off the table, the wire won't keep it from hitting the ground.

I bought this to replace a 10-year-old Netgear NAS and was concerned that it would be more difficult to set up than the older box. The software was easy to navigate, setup was pretty foolproof with greater flexibility than my old (now obsolete) Netgear box. My only criticism is that the box itself has no LED screen to display status/IP address, etc, but the software allows you to assign an alias for the box that survives IP address changes, so the absent screen is not an issue on my very simple home network.

The first time I used this I was on a foreign network so I didn't have the IP address to configure it. The device has on-screen controls though so it was an easy setup, just browsed to my NDI source and worked great. I used this with vMix for a remote monitor of the program stream.

I really like the Synology NAS! Setup was easy, I just watched a YouTube video and I was set. It appeared on my home network and I was able to begin copying files to it right away. Pro tip: Assign an IP address to the MAC address in your home router so it has the same IP address for the rest of its life.

I really love that the new cloud key displays the IP address and the fact that is has a battery backup in case you loose power. Everything is setup and running great.
