It may happen that the Foscam IP camera tool won’t detect any IP cameras on the network (although you have connected one). There are many factors that can cause this issue, but the main culprits are various drivers installed in your computer. If you can’t find the Foscam camera on the software, read the tips below:
- Make sure both camera and computer are connected to the same router (network).
- Make sure the camera’s status is normal.
- Try another Ethernet cable or hook into another LAN port on the router.
- Make sure the router DHCP server is enabled and there is no Mac address filter.
- Login router’s web page, and check router’s DHCP client list as well, to see if the camera’s IP shows up there. If yes, please try to log in the camera directly by typing the IP address and port on the url address bar. (Default http port: for SD camera is 80, for HD camera is 88).
Other possible reasons the IP Search Tool may be blocked are Windows firewall settings, router firewall settings, anti-virus software or some other software issue.
”Subnet doesn’t match” error on IP camera tool
In a few cases while using the Equipment Search Tool newly discovered Foscam cameras will generate an error message subnet doesn’t match. This error is normally generated because the camera and computer do not have an IP address on the same network segment. This can be caused by the computer and camera not being connected to the same router or the camera was configured with a different IP address on another router.
Read these tips for a possible solution:

- Verify that the camera and computer are connected to the same router and the router’s DHCP server is enabled.
- You may need to perform a hard reset of the camera. Once completed the camera will obtain a new IP address from the router’s DHCP server automatically.
- If the above steps do not resolve the error assign an IP address for the camera manually.
- Verify that the Gateway and DNS server is the router’s local IP address and the camera’s IP address should have the first three numbers as the router’s IP address. Example: If the router’s local IP address is 192.168.1.1 then the IP address range of the camera would be 192.168.1.x with x being between 2 – 254. Also the IP address for the camera must be unique (not the same IP for two devices on the network).
- Enter the username and password for the camera and click okay. At this point the error message should be corrected and the camera should be displayed with the IP address you just assigned to it.
