Kind of a long read
So to preface, all my cameras had never had their factory logins changed, they were all admin/admin
So last week I bought a ubiquiti edge router X for it's performance and VLAN capability, I got it up and running, and my amcrest NVR (NV4116e-hs) and all the cameras except one were running fine. A few days later I found a tip to improve the ER Xs performance, so I entered the commands in the CLI, and saved them. They were an "IPSEC offload" and "HWNAT offload" commands
Not too long after that, one of my cameras that's connected directly into the POE port of the NVR starts disconnecting and reconnecting. Then after that, all my cameras start acting funny. So I disconnected all my cameras and restarted the NVR. I have 4 camera's ported directly to the POE on the NVR and another 4 connected to a managed POE switch.
The cameras channels show up on my TV with either an invalid password, other network errors, and or failed login return time prompts.
The majority of my cameras are Lorex, 1 amcrest, and 2 Amazon cameras (hitosino)
I try for a few hours trying to re-add them using their default logins to no success.
So I though maybe something is off with networking equipment, I pull out my old equipment, an amcrest NVR NV4108-HS, Asus router and unmanaged Netgear Poe switch. Add the cameras to their channels, and right away again, invalid password, and "other network errors" prompts.
I've tried accessing the amcrest and lorex cameras through their web browsers interface (chrome and IE), enter admin/admin, prompted for invalid UN/PW.
Now I'm thinking, did the IPSEC And HWNAT offload commands corrupt my cameras somehow. I have no real "networking" knowledge so I don't even know what those commands really do. Just followed a YouTube tip, and my cameras have no reset button on them anywhere
