Hi all! Also posted this in r/homedefense, but didn’t get any traction so posting here too.

I moved into a new home recently, where they have 4 IP cameras set up around the house; the previous owners left the cameras and wiring, but no instructions to set them up. All 4 cameras are Vandsec’s VN-GB20P.

I’m trying to figure out how to boot up the system. Each camera is connected to an ethernet cable (2x blue & 2x white) and those are wired through the house into my living room, where each end of the ethernet is labeled to its appropriate camera. Also in my living room is a gray ethernet cable, which runs down into my basement; the other end of that cable is not plugged into anything. In the basement, there is also an unused blue ethernet cord and a coaxial cable wired through to the main level but I think those were left over from the previous ISP.

Would love to understand where to go from here. I only have one ethernet jack in my modem and that connects through to my router, which only has 2 ethernet jacks as well (both in use – 1 to modem, 1 to tv). I know some aren’t fond of a Chinese system, but I’d like to try and make this work if possible.

Thanks in advance for any and all help!
