    I have now tried the following after removing camera from its installation position : Connected to a local PSU and different switch rather than the POE switch I was using.

    HIKVision DS-2CD2032F Bricked

    Thanks Codegreen, I have extracted the files and they seem to transfer ok although I am not sure I am rebooting it when I should.

    HIKVision DS-2CD2032F Bricked

    Hi all, I was having problems with SMB on my 2032 and thought it would be a good idea to upgrade it, not realising it was a Chinglish version. I now realise the error of my ways as despite following the help offered on this forum, I still do not have a camera that works. A couple of things I...
