Hi all - I have the Lorex LNB8921
, which seems to map to the Dahua N84CB34, and want to update it to the Dahua FW. I have been through the instructions on this site and several of the mods to the commands.txt file, but am stuck. I see the camera boot ok, and it seems to want to start the FW update, but always times out.
here is one of the Commands.txt I tried:
run dr
run dk
run du
run dw
run dp
run dc
tftp 0x02000000 pd-x.squashfs.img; flwrite
tftp 0x82000000 .FLASHING_DONE_STOP_TFTP_NOW
sleep 5
With that, Here is what I see on the TFTP server:

NOTE the "Timeout" above.
Here is what I see in the console:

NOTE the "Failed run dr!" above,
So I changed the Commands.txt file (removed all the RUN commands & added in the individual file names per one of the posts above that worked for someone else...)
tftp 0x02000000 romfs-x.squashfs.img; flwrite
tftp 0x02000000 kernel.img; flwrite

The output from the TFTP server is the same - here is the console:

note the checksum error above - I re-downloaded the file from Dahua (), but got the same error - WinZip does have a screen when I am unzipping it:
But I am not sure what that means, and I don't think we are using that file anyway...
I am connecting to the camera using method 1 (adding the route table to my router for 192.168.254.254, redirecting to the IP of my laptop, and adding an additional IP to said laptop). The only other thing that is odd in my setup is that I already have a device on 192.168.1.108 (this is apparently some default for the cameras, though I can't see it trying to connect on that IP in the logs, just on 192.168.1.251 - if I have to, I can take that out temporarily, but didn't think it was an issue at this point. The camera's current IP is 192.168.1.123.
Any help? I appreciate it very much!
