Extra devices in device list after POE Switch install

[fishki]

Just connected a new POE switch, now the reolink client shows 7 of my 14 cameras in the device list along with the NVR which has all my cameras and works normally. How do I get rid of additional devices in list?

Clicking on any of them ask to create password which I did for camera 10 which is why it shows connected. It was connected anyway thru the NVR, so I guess it's connected twice.

NVR connected to Switch, and Switch connected to Router.

EDIT: Clicking on the extra camera 10, and then clicking playback displays the error 'No SD Card Detected'. My cameras do not use SD cards nor have a place for one.
Camera playback thru the NVR in device list works a normal.

@fishki Get the UID of the cameras which weren't detected and click on the + sign. Add them using the UID. The POE switch allows you to connect to the cameras directly. So now you can watch either through the NVR or directly. This is the best configuration. Note that if you bought some of the units as part of a system then it could be that the cameras have no UID. In this case you need to use fixed IPs.

@joseph_1979 Yes, I can add all the cameras separately, but the point is I don't need them listed twice.

@fishki Then delete the direct ones or the NVR whichever you like.

I now have my Reolink Client cleaned up and NOT showing duplicates of NVR cameras. Had to uninstall Reolink Client, disconnect from router, reinstall Reolink Client, go to settings and uncheck Add Devices Automatically, (since it's on by default), reconnect to router, and then add my NVR from the device list. What a pita way to do it.
