Axis Camera Not Displaying

So last week, we tried setting up our axis camera but it wasn't working. Eventually, it was a IP problem which we fixed and when we were done we connected the camera to our robot. In the Driver Station the camera was not displaying anything (we enabled vision on the DS) but we saw the "fps" increase to about 30 and decrease to about 25. It kept changing very fast but we were not getting a image. So we took the camera back and manually configure it. In the Browser we got an image, so we knew our camera was actually working. The weird thing is after we set up our axis camera up(either through the app or manually) and the IP address was changed to 10.28.71.11 we were not able to connect back to it in the browser, we kept getting a error saying how it Timed Out(something like that). Our Labtop had a IP Address of 10.28.71.5 and Subnet of 255.255.255.0 so it wasn't the problem. Even though we weren't able to connect to it we continued on,we finished manually configuring it and connected back to our robot. But again the same problem the fps were changing but still no actual camera image being displayed. We even tried connecting it to different ports in the Dlink. Are we suppose to connect the camera to the cRIO's second port? Does anyone know what might be the problem? Is there any modifications we have to make to the default Vision Processing VI in Labview? Thanks in advance!

We did everything by these steps
