    Help resetting Hikvision Turret IP cam without DHCP?

    hi Mike could you elaborate a bit more in this... so the laptop that has SADP installed on it, change the ip of that? the ip of the cam shown in SADP doesn’t work when I put it into the browser, assuming because cam has no dhcp enabled and hence that ip is out of range.

    Help resetting Hikvision Turret IP cam without DHCP?

    Unfortunately nit as these turrets do not have a hard reset button? Unless I can open it up. They are not the ones with the memory card slot. The exact model number is: DS-2CD2342WD

    Unexpected Shutdown only once every 3 months

    Great thanks, that’s what I’ve always done, but I was reading an installation guide and they advised secure erase, which I thought was a bit overkill.

    Unexpected Shutdown only once every 3 months

    Does anyone think I should securely erase the hard drive first with a bootable utility like Parted Magic to ensure all malware destroyed? Or is deleting all partitions in the windows setup good enough?

    Only blue iris, it quits once every 3 months. Do you think there are too many errors on that log per day? Seems like a lot! The windows system doesn’t ever crash. But I was infected with malware in Dec last year because I installed a horrible installer version of ImgBurn. I had to manually...
