Hi All,
I have poured through the forums and tried everything I could find, but...
I have a DS-2CD2532-IWS, manufactured 02/2015, and shipped with firmware V5.2.8_141231. It quit broadcasting yesterday and the web tool would not respond. It was connected via a router, so I attached it to my computer via the LAN port, and I could still not get to the web tool. SADP / iVMS-4200 showed me that the camera existed, and I was able to change the IP address, etc., but that was as far as I could go. Thinking the firmware may have gotten corrupted somehow, I have tried to flash pretty much every firmware under the sun with the TFTP tool. It always appears successful (i.e. I get the message "Device[192.0.0.64]system update completed!"), but the camera still doesn't seem to do anything. I can PING 192.0.0.64 and I always get a response, but beyond that it looks like the camera is completely bricked.
What else can I try?
