I don't think so but even if it has I don't think I need it

It is running on wifi alone, but when I had it connected by cable I was able to view it in Hik-Connect. I have another 4 of these and they are also connected by wifi and working well. Perhaps I need to update the firmware? The firmware details are - firmwareCode =...

Tried it but unfortunately it needs the plug in so I think I'll stick with Pale Moon, but I appreciate your help

Thanks TonyR, this browser works great with it and I don't even have to download the plugin

I really like the facility to view Hikvision live view, configuration, etc but I'm conscious that support for this browser is coming to an end. Is there another browser that will support me logging on using my Windows 10 PC please? Also, other than Hik-Connect, is there a browser / method...

I have just set up another PTZ DS-2DE2A404IW-DE3/W and it is definitely online as (having port forwarded), I can view it online as a test. I have activated it for Hik-Connect but for whatever reason I cannot view it as it is constantly showing 'offline'. Is there something simple I've failed...

Agreed :goodpost:

Thanks fergenheimer, I'm not into the programming side and am happy I've found a solution in Uptimerobot however I'm interested in your synology setup. I'm assuming it's remote to the camera, is that the case please? I'm trying to work out the logistics of having a remote NAS at my home or...

OK, I didn't really want to get dragged into this but I've attached the screen captures to demonstrate what I'm referring to. "user8963", I'm not sure what you look at in your spare time but that's not for me. As I said, the cameras are positioned at the front entrance. These are city centre...

This is the solution I've been looking for (Uptimerobot). Without any cost I can monitor the camera ports and have them checked every 5 mins. It even has an app which runs on my Android. Unfortunately, there is a cost with ipct Uptime Watchdog once you get past the 1st monitor whereas...

Thanks to everyone for such interesting thoughts and advice, much of which is way over my head. To give a little bit of history, 2 days ago I had to go to a property because I was unable to view the IP cam protecting it. I was suspicious that for example, the camera might have been pulled off...

Our Hikvision IP cameras are installed at remote properties and the easy way to disable them is to simply switch off the router. Is there any simple method of creating an alert when a router is switched off?

Ouch!

My camera has been up and running at a remote location for months and is accessible via Hik-Connect and iVMS The external link however has suddenly failed although I've confirmed the exterior IP address has not and so I'm assuming either the port has changed or that the router has stopped...
