 ## Camera Streaming
+
 - All camera streams are published under the NetworkTables table `CameraPublisher`.
 - The only subtable under `CameraPublisher` that will work for viewing a driver mode camera stream is the one that contains `Output` in the name.
 - To view a camera stream in a dashboard, drag the correct subtable from the NetworkTables tree into your dashboard.

-
-This section will walk you through how to install PhotonVision on your coprocessor. Your coprocessor is the device that has the camera and you are using to detect targets (ex. if you are using a Limelight / Raspberry Pi, that is your coprocessor and you should follow those instructions).

 You only need to install PhotonVision on the coprocessor/device that is being used to detect targets, you do NOT need to install it on the device you use to view the webdashboard. All you need to view the webdashboard is for a device to be on the same network as your vision coprocessor and an internet browser.

+
+### Camera Nickname
+
+You **must** set the nickname of your cameras in PhotonVision to ensure that every camera has a unique name. This is how you will identify cameras in robot code. The camera can be nicknamed using the edit button next to the camera name in the upper right of the Dashboard page.

 ## Choosing a Camera
 
 PhotonVision relies on [CSCore](https://github.com/wpilibsuite/allwpilib/tree/main/cscore) to detect and process cameras, so camera support is determined based off compatibility with CScore along with native support for the camera within your OS (ex. [V4L compatibility](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video4Linux)).

 Use caution when using multiple identical cameras, as only the physical USB port they are plugged into can differentiate them. PhotonVision provides a "strict matching" setting which can reduce errors related to identical cameras. Arducam has a [tool that allows for identical cameras to be renamed](https://docs.arducam.com/UVC-Camera/Serial-Number-Tool-Guide/) by their physical location or purpose.

 ## Checklist
 
 A few issues make up the majority of support requests. Run through this checklist quickly to catch some common mistakes.
 
-- Is your camera connected to the robot's radio through a {ref}`network switch <docs/quick-start/networking:Physical Networking>`?
+- Is your camera connected to the robot's radio through a {ref}`network switch <docs/getting-started/networking:Physical Networking>`?
   - Ethernet straight from a laptop to a coprocessor will not work (most likely), due to the unreliability of link-local connections.
   - Even if there's a switch between your laptop and coprocessor, you'll still want a radio or router in the loop somehow.
   - The FRC radio is the _only_ router we will officially support due to the innumerable variations between routers.
