Help with IP CCTV

I should add that the other 3 work perfectly

Did you try connecting it directly to your router, then logging on to it via your PC to set it up?

If it's already plugged into your router, type its IP into Your internet browser to logon to it. Note that some want a Microsoft browser and won't work with Chrome.

If I type the address into edge it just opens the swan-view link app as normal..
I think its dead..

You need to connect the camera directly to your router.

Ah, Just not too comfortable with plugging things that dont work into things that do, especially when my understanding of these things is limited somewhat.
I will bung it the t"hings that are no good but dont want to throw away" Box.

Now that I think about it, it won't work anyway because you have POE. It would need a separate power supply.

I do not know the answer to the original question but I just wanted to pop in and say 4K video is 8.3 mega pixels, not 4M.
