Issue with two identical generic camera's

Hello all,

I’m quite new to HA and I’m having issues with one of my two identical IP camera’s. They are both D-link DCS-820L camera’s. One of the two camera’s is working without a problem, but the other one is unable to connect. I checked my configuration and it is identical to the other camera. Also when I use the link in a browser with the same credentials it is working.

Does anyone have a tip?!

how are you configuring them. Post your yaml.

When you say identical configuration, I hope you are not saying the ip addresses are the same.

Off course the IP addresses are different. Also the credentials are. But when I use the exact details in a browser it works.

Sorry, I always check the obvious first… it’s usually the little stuff that gets ya. I believe that cam has a cat5 ethernet port. I’ve seen a lot of problems due to wifi connectivity. Can you plug the puppy in and try it?

Post your yaml.

This is the YAML code I’m using:
