The DHCP fallback IP address is available on the camera if there is no DHCP server present. Add an IP address to your network connection that is compatible to the DHCP fallback (192.168.1.222) or the link-local (169.254.X.X) IP address. If there is a router or gateway between the camera and your computer, the DHCP fallback route should be used instead of the link-local route. In this case, the network device should be configured to work with the DHCP fallback route.
