I'm starting to realise this, I previously used Axis products & the level of service is somewhat different with HIKVision :facepalm:

Solved (sort of) - looks like you need the web plugin & to use Internet Explorer for this option to show up (using my Windows 10 VM). Really struggling as I'm primarily on Mac OS :( Suggestions welcome on that front.

Thanks @Securame - I'm on Mac OS, so no IE possible. I do have a virtualised Windows 10 machine which is brand new (no plugins) - which I'll try but I really need to get this going on Mac OS is possible. [update] looking hopeful on Win 10 VM

Hi guys, Struggling to find option to update firmware - should be on Config -> System -> Maintenance page but option missing completely. I'm logged in as admin with full r/w options. Welcome any advice... did make me think if I've bought a knock-off HIKVision unit rather than genuine one.
