IP Camera issues.....

...if this is the wrong area for this, please let me know and I'll take it down.

So I have an IP Camera that I'm trying to set up in my new home. I have a new ISP, Comcast Xfinity, so everything has to be redone.

I fired it up with it's wireless config from my old place. When that didn't work, I remembered from years ago that when setting this device up of having to use an ethernet connection first. Did that directly to my Comcast modem/router combo. No dice. I tried using 2 different IP scanner programs, Angry IP Scanner and Advanced IP Scanner. No luck there, either. And yes, there's a "reset" button on the unit which I've tried a few times. I does restart, but does not connect using wired/wireless.

It does show up under the Comcast modem/router, but the info there is rudimentary. I need help discovering it's actual login page.

Please and thank you.

Thanks for your reply. Looking into that right now. Will update ASAP.

UPDATE: Oh boy. This whole thing has shown me how old this device is. But, it's still decent so will give it a serious go. And yes, found the manual and am looking for answers now. Hopefully it's all there.

So the manual says that this device came with an app to find it on your network. Unfortunately, I don't have the disc anymore.

"The camera comes with a conveniently utility, IPFinder, which is included in the

Rosewill RSCM-12001 IP Camera

It's discontinued by the maker so nothing available @ their site. But I did manage to find good info from 3rd parties.

And thank you for your quick replies! I'll have to refresh this page quicker.

I'm sorry, I'm working so a bit of a delayed reply. It's just this 1 cam. So no KVM switch.

It does, yes. When I go to it, it can never connect and it just times out.

That's what I've done, but with both Firefox and Vivaldi, which, as I'm sure you know, is based on Chromium/Chrome. Latest version of the browsers, if that matters. First it says that address is not secure, if you proceed ahead anyways, it never loads and just times out.

I've always understood to stay away from all things Google. I'm sure I'm in the minority in today's world, but I know/have people in my family who work in IT and they've always steered me away from them. Like I said, I use Vivaldi, which is basically Chrome. I can try anything else besides it.

Is it possible to know why the web browser matters in this case?
