Thank you both for the info! Yes the cameras were purchased with the NVR as a bundle. Sounds like just connecting to the NVR is the best method, i'll continue to do that. Cheers!

I have an NVR and 4 IP cameras. I downloaded the Client software for my PC and added the NVR, which then found all 4 cameras automatically. Would there be any reason to add the individual cameras instead of the NVR?
