That will not work. RS485 bus is used for commands (PTZ movement, zoom, OSD menus, whatever), and it is an unidirectional bus. You send commands over that bus, and expect whatever devices receive those commands to accordingly. "Hey, ID1 device, go to this coordinates" "Hey, ID2 device, zoom in"...

You have the s/n of each camera on each box; and you can also see the s/n of each camera on SADP :)

Use Internet Explorer, and clear your browser cache.

A "reboot script" like this will work with any unit and firmware. The bad part is that you are down for at least a minute; you can program it to shut down power daily, for example from 4:59 to 5:00, or whatever time suits you.

You can't. You will have to run an script on your web server so it keeps looking for a new file, and move it/copy it/rename it to whatever you want.

So I just updated some of my older cube cameras, just to be sure. DS-2CD2420F-IW - R2 - V5.4.800 build 210813 DS-2CD2432F-IW - R0 - V5.4.800 build 210813 DS-2CD2423G0-IW - G1 - V5.6.6 build 210625

Just use Safire models if you are fine with them. You should be able to add them to a Hik-connect account with no problem, mixing Hikvision and Safire devices if you want. If you have an NVR, you will have to connect them as ONVIF.

NVR is 192.168.254.1, unless you changed it. NVRs with POE pots have two different subnets, one for your LAN, one for the integrated network switch.

Oh wait, so you are connecting the camera on a POE port¿ Then you do need to configure it on the 192.168.254.x subnet.

That's the TCP port you see in Config Tool, not the web or ONVIF port.

ONVIF port is surely not 37777. Try with 80.

So I just tried with a SF-IPD821WHA-4PW (rebranded DS-2CV2141G2-IDW) with firmware v5.5.120 build 210209, and it does connect to P2P over wifi. It looks that it is only Hik firmwares that have removed the P2P ability over wifi. There is a newer Safire firmware, same version but different build...

Ahhh well, that might be it. EZVIZ is part of the Hikvision family, so I do not think they even need to pay anything to themselves. EZVIZ is marketed to end users/consumers. EZVIZ cameras can actually be used with Hikvision app/P2P system/Hik-connect.

Wifi works. P2P/Hik-connect works (when using wired connection). P2P/Hik-connect does not work over wifi. Why wouldn't it work on a camera that has wifi? Because Hikvision removed it. Why did they do it? I have no idea. SMTP options should still be there. More info...
