Hi All
Bought these cameras 2 years ago and have only gotten around to installing them now.
Firstly I have been looking over this site and I appreciate there is already alot of info out there about getting this firmware changed to a 5.2.0 English via tftp auto updater (which interestingly is no longer available at hikvision.com)
Following this guide: https://www.ipcamtalk.com/showthread.php/1078-Firmware-5-2-0-in-English?highlight=hikvision.com
When I have the tftpserv.exe executed, and following the instructions provided: with the camera plugged into the laptop, with wifi off and the ip settings 192.0.0. 128 subnet 255.255.255.0, firewall off, turn power off and on again to camera, wait 5 mins and nothing happens....then try crossover cable..nothing happens
I'm using windows 10 64bit and I noticed most of the info was written back in 2012/13 so is it a windows 7-10 issue?
Basically what can I try to update the firmware to English...dont really want to do the hack option. https://www.ipcamtalk.com/showthread.php/162-How-to-hack-5-1-2-firmware-on-China-region-cameras-to-English
