Flir (Dahua?) DNE12TL2 camera only wants to request TFTP files.... no http and no more telnet

[couponhead]

I'm trying to reinvigorate an old Flir/Lorex camera system. The camera in question is a Flir branded DNE12TL2.

It won't do dhcp, but wireshark tells me that it wants to be 192.168.1.108. It doesn't serve port 80 (http), but at one point, I got it to give me a telnet prompt and tried the login/password admin/admin, which was refused.

Plugged it in a couple of hours later and no telnet / no responding to pings as 192.168.1.108. Now, (wireshark indicates that) it seems to only want to get a file that starts with "upgrade_info" via tftp from 192.168.254.254.

Can this camera be recovered? Is there a way to reset it to factory condition so that I can start over? I hate thinking that I'll have to get into its awkward spot on the wall, remove it, and get another in there.

Sounds like it is in default state. What’s your LAN ip range? And the default port was 35000 and password was 000000.

I tried to use it with both 192.168.0.x and 10.0.0.x.

At one point, it responded to pings as 192.168.0.108, but it stopped doing this after I attempted to telnet in.

Have you tried config tool? If I remember correctly the FLIR default was 192.168.1.108 with port and pass listed above. I don’t think I’d put to much time into a 12-15 year old camera myself.

What is "config tool" and where would I find it?

For reference, the Lorex DVR died and I'm trying to get these cameras working with a "regular" computer instead. I don't think that I can use the Lorex software in this situation.
