    NVR ds-7608ni-i2/8p firmware upgrade gone wrong.

    In one of my posts I tell the tale of when I thought I had bricked mine too, couldn't even login as the user interface was all messed up and in different language. The process I described in my post fixed it all. Good luck.

    NVR ds-7608ni-i2/8p firmware upgrade gone wrong.

    Hi stumpy I have no idea what is the difference, but it definitely is not a very relevant one. Cameras and NVR seem to be working as well as always. There are some tabs with new features, but its all disabled for my cameras/NVR - so nothing really useful, so far.

    NVR ds-7608ni-i2/8p firmware upgrade gone wrong.

    how do I find out? Is it only on a sticker? I've tried in the webui but doesn't seem to be there. Re software version I think I mentioned in one of my posts, its was version 3.4.93

    They will probably get stuck in hikvision's horrible website trying to find out who to even talk to about this :banghead:

    NVR ds-7608ni-i2/8p firmware upgrade gone wrong.

    I had a very similar convo with them, which I detailed in earlier posts. It is what it is, I think people wanting to upgrade their AU NVRs will be left unsupported for upgrades for many years to come.

    NVR ds-7608ni-i2/8p firmware upgrade gone wrong.

    I would not update unless you have a 32MP camera. I think 4.1.64 does its job well enough and has good enough performance. I would only upgrade if there were significant improvements to the interface, the way videos are downloaded and/or how recording take place (sensitivity, different options...

    NVR ds-7608ni-i2/8p firmware upgrade gone wrong.

    After a long time fearing this process, I've decided to pull the trigger. Below is my journey, which I think may help someone. Reminder: I have the official legitimate australian version of the DS-7608NI-I2 / 8P NVR and cams DS-2CD2385FWD-I. First thing I did was download the latest NVR...

    Oh, good to hear! So using the USB method worked for you, after the first RMA problem you had? Also, was it worth it to upgrade?

    NVR ds-7608ni-i2/8p firmware upgrade gone wrong.

    still haven't got any replies from hikvision, but my cameras are now setup. Live view doesn't work for more than 2 at a time using the web browser, which I think is an issue I have seen someone else mentioning... these 8mp cameras look really good! some issues with night vision which I hope I...

    NVR ds-7608ni-i2/8p firmware upgrade gone wrong.

    I had an exchange with hikvision support (australia). What happened is basically 1. I told them (and they confirmed the products as genuine via Serial #) I had bought ds-7608ni-i2 nvr and 8mp hikvision cameras (ds-2cd2385fwd-i) from an Australian supplier 2. nvr came with firmware version...

    NVR ds-7608ni-i2/8p firmware upgrade gone wrong.

    I've contacted my seller, and he said 3.4 is the latest I can get, and I have to contact hikvision Australia whenever I want to get a new one. Tangcla, did you use the web ui for your upgrade? If using the monitor, do I get the new firmware in an USB stick? Or some other method?

    Aussie here too. Same NVR. Anyone installed 4.1.50 successfully? The ones who had problems, were you able to rollback?
