Crio network light does not light when camera plugged in

When we plug our axis camera into the cRio, the network light does not light up.

-We are using WindRiver for development (we don't have Labview installed. Should we?)
-We can successfully upload programs to the cRio
-All our IPs are set correctly

-The camera is connected using a crossover cable on port two
-The camera has the FRC/FRC account set
-The camera powers up fine (it turns orange for about 10 seconds, then green).
-We have successfully viewed camera output in our browser when the camera is directly connected to the PC

We have no idea why the camera doesn't even seem to attempt to communicate with the cRio when we plug it in. We know that the cRio's port works because we can plug our tether into it and it works, and we know the camera's ethernet port works because we can view it and modify settings if we plug it directly into our PC.

Did we miss a step in instructions? Has anyone else had this problem? I searched extensively and couldn't find anyone talking about the network light not even lighting.
