I have a wifi smartnet camera that works with the v380 app for Android/iOS/Windows and I wanna connect it to my motion server running on Ubuntu 18.04.
Although the camera is connected to the LAN and I can view it on my phone I don't see it listed under DHCP clients on my router's home page.
How can I discover the IP address of the camera?
I installed a software called motion which uses the webcam though I wasn't with enough patience to learn how to use it and uninstalled it with sudo apt purge. But after I did my webcam stopped working.
lsusb -v | grep cam
Gives:
Couldn't open device, some information will be missing
Couldn't open device, some information will be missing
Couldn't open device, some information will be missing
I tried running
sudo modprobe -r uvcvideo
and then
sudo modprobe uvcvideo
But it still not working.
The weird thing is that the camera led is still on. Can I have any spyware and the software messed with it?
I can't use it with cheese neither with google hangouts in chrome. And I also tried restarting the computer. also
