The short answer
A router reservation can keep the same local address without inventing a static address inside another device’s range. Confirm the MAC mapping after restart.
Work through the checks
Identify the camera by model, hardware revision, firmware and MAC address. Keep this inventory separate from passwords; two devices with similar names may expose different protocols.
Read the camera address in your router’s DHCP client list or the manufacturer’s local setup tool. Confirm the entry against the MAC address instead of guessing an address.
Use a DHCP reservation in the router when available. Verify the camera reconnects at the reserved address after a controlled restart before updating saved connection entries.
Change one setting, then repeat the same short test after a controlled app or device restart. Record the error time and whether the problem recurs rather than treating a temporary recovery as a diagnosis.
What to verify
Test one camera and one stream before opening a larger camera wall. Keep the camera settings unchanged while you establish whether the first live image is stable.
Sources and scope
AeoCam is available for Windows. Camera settings below describe protocol preparation, not a certification of a particular camera or a promise of every feature in every app version. Check the installed build and the Microsoft Store listing for current availability.
Vendor documents describe the camera or protocol. No physical-camera compatibility test is claimed here. Menus and capabilities can change with model and firmware.
