Hi there.

We are streaming services from our church with a dome camera. The address currently is 192.168.1.200
But, we changed to another ISP which put in their own Wi-Fi router. The new router is 192.168.88.xxx.
This means that I cannot access the camera to change it's own IP address. I need to get into the camera to change it's IP address to 192.168.88.200
Any suggestions on how to get to the camera now?

I will REALLY appreciate any help to change it.

Thank you.
 
So I guess the camera has some type of Web Interface.

Try setting your laptop to the same range as the camera's IP like 192.168.1.201 255.255.255.0 and then run a network cable straight to the camera. Then change the IP to a new IP that falls in the same range as the new Router and connect it back to the network.
 
Like ToxicCorra27 said, set your laptop or desktop to a static ip address which can be anything in the 192.168.1.X range. I would prefer 192.168.1.5. If you can, connect the camera directly to the laptop or desktop you are using.
EDIT: except 192.168.1.200, the IP address you want to access...

Except 192.168.1.200. :p Also, no need to connect directly to the camera, but at least to the same network/switch.
 
Change the router IP and DHCP scope to the 192.168.1.xx range.

Try DHCP scope of 1.10 to 1.199 first

Am assuming the camera is connected by cable in this scenario

192.168.88.xxx is the IP range skyfi or sawireless use on the LAN side, so if it's one of those, it will mean he doesn't have access to change it, as they don't give out the username and password. Also, way easier to just follow the given solutions above. :)

That is the default IP range of mikrotik routers.
If he doesn't have access to that to login to, he won't be able to route or port forward his camera anyway.
