Hi to everyone!

I own a garage and there is an alignment machine that uses 8 IP cameras connected through a netgear smart switch directly to a pc. The problem is that I want to connect that pc to the LAN.
The cameras and the pc are on the same subnet with static ip assigned.
If I connect the switch to the LAN and change the router's IP and subnet to match those of the system, would that work?
 
Solution
That will work be sure to also put the static ip you assigned to your cameras in the router exclude list so it does not attempt to assign them to other devices via dhcp
