You could find the make and model of the then go online and download the manual to find the defualt IP address assuming some clever sausage hasnt changed it.

It will probably be password protected anyway

ok so there isnt anything i can use to scan my network to see whats conected in on it

also is there a program that would be used to see network cams as i take it the cams are new so will run on a windows based computer

try Advadce IP scanner to scan your local network this will let you know which IP addresses are live

use nmap to scan your network - im guessing the cctv stuff is all done over port 80 therefore:

nmap -A 192.168.0.0/24 -p 80 -v

replace 192.168.0.0/24 with the correct subnet

you can also use a ping sweep to check which hosts are alive:

nmap -sP 192.168.0.0/24 -v

A GUI way would be Angry IP Scanner.

fire up command prompt and type:

net view

How do you know they are on the same network? What do you mean by "same as all the computers"?

as far as i can tell from people to people that work here there is only one network running in the bulding and everything runs of the same one

Its unlikely they will be on he same network, or at least the same VLAN.
