I'm trying to use LastPass to store my login/password for each of my cameras. It doesn't seem to work for this. Each time I try to login in, it fills in the user name and password, but when I hit the "Login" button, it says the information is incorrect and I have 4 login attempts remaining. Have any of you been able to get LastPass to work with your cameras? Thanks

Mine does similar, Chrome loads a 4 digit PW, My PW is 12 digits. Password works OK in FireFox.

I've noticed this myself using multiple password managers. I haven't had time to look into it, but I suspect that the login form field names have changed in the 2019 firmware releases. I just manually copy and paste the password for now. Bottom line, you're not crazy, it's a real thing. :)

Multiple accounts for the same site does this for me too with LastPass. It’s almost as if after you select the details you want to use from the list it then reverts the details to the previous it had last used.

These cameras don't seem to issue security certificates so I guess LastPass doesn't recognise it as authentic login page

It's not the certificate but probably more related to the JScript code building the login box.

Well, it's good to know I'm not alone. My camera passwords are lengthy and complex so it's a PIA when I need to log directly into the camera. If any of you find a way to get it working, please post it. Thanks!

After it fills in the fields, try adding a space or other character then backspace it out. Do for both fields. Sometimes the websites don’t notice the auto fills and assume they are still blank until the field is activated.
