Nevermind. My 3 cameras had somehow been attacked by the backdoor exploit and the password had been changed. Thanks to this forum and AlastairStevenson and @bp2008 I was able to change the password back to normal. Now I just need to find out how to put 5.4.5 or later English firmware on these...

Thanks very much. You and @bp2008 saved the day!! I first failed with ver 1.0 but then found bp2008's latest 1.1 reset tool and it worked!! So I must have been hacked. So for these Chinese cameras, is there a way to update to 5.4.1 or later (in English) to avoid this problem again?

Were the DS-2CD2335-i cameras (Chinese origin firmware 5.3.6) subject to the backdoor exploit. I ask because suddenly 3 of my 10 cameras are not connecting to Blue Iris with a password error. I see the cameras in SADP but can no longer log in. Have I been hacked?

Suggestions?

OK, so you've caught on that I am totally ignorant. These cameras are Chinese in origin and don't have an obvious reset button. I use Blue Iris. In Tinycam pro on my android phone, the message on the blank screen says, "Cam 7: No Signal, error 8000007a (Check Port/User/Password) 0

Perfectly normal as in they are not a qood camera to begin with? Any way to revive them? Thanks.

I installed 10 DS-2CD2335I cameras about 2 years ago. Three of the cameras have stopped producing any video - just a black screen. I see them on my network IP scanner and can log into them with SADP, but they don't product any video. I removed one and it physically looks fine. I tried...

Thanks very much for the response. My problem is new so your question got me to test on WiFi and on 4G. The problem only occurs on WiFi! I'm not sure why that is the now the case but I changed my LAN address in the mobile app to my WAN address and all is well. Any idea why my local address was...

I have the latest updates on my PC Server and Galaxy S8. When playing back a recorded clip on my phone, it play for one second then halts. If I press pause and then play again, it plays the next second and then halts again. I can go thru the clip one second at a time. Any idea why it is...

I've now got my cameras appearing on my Omnipro 5.7e touchscreens. The image is small but actually quite clear. Ken, as usual had the link that would work- I needed to add a height command at the end of the URL. So here are the PC Dealer Access settings: IP Camera Name: Any text Type: MJPEG...

HAI/Leviton says that I must find a URL in this format that bypasses any login screen (in other words, goes right to a video when put in a browser). http://IPAddress:Port/QueryString Can I shut off local LAN authentication in Blue Iris and come up with a URL like that? Thanks for any ideas....

I'm hoping someone has experience with Blue Iris and Omnipro II 5.7e touchscreens? I've tried every URL I can think of in the PC Dealer Access HAI/Leviton software and can't bring up an image. The same URL works in a browser. The camera names do appear on the 5.7e, but I either get no image...

I notice that Newegg has the refurb Acer for $429 on fatwallet - see http://m.newegg.com/Product/index?itemnumber=N82E16883101399&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-FatWallet,%20Inc.-_-na-_-na-_-na&AID=10446076&PID=361116&SID=ebs2d3639917d9344d1466721708697sbe I have no interest in this...

Do the above devices require port forwarding to get Android access so that I can reboot the BI PC from vacation if it hangs? I had been planning on getting this IP Power Switch device which allows the port to be specified...

To wrap up this thread for anyone who may be interested in doing a similar install, here is some info: See pics below of lamp post from front and from side and the images they capture. I'm happy with the stealthiness from the street after adding a number plate. The number plate does not...
