If you bought the camera from Andy, then the latest firmware can be found on his site: Download Firmwares

Hi thank you for the reply. Yes i bought them from Andy, do you know if this firmware works on my old 5442t-ase? Thank you

Yeah, it's important to use the right firmware for your camera model. I would not be able to answer your question definitively. Perhaps you should DM Andy for a 2nd opinion.

Yes i don't want to brick my camera, it's old but it works good i will contact him, thank you

What issue are you having that you think you need an update? Most don't update unless the release notes are fixing an issue one has?

Further the newer firmware won't trigger for wildlife if that is something you want triggers for.

Hi, i don't understand if i have some problem with profile day/night (it seems it doesn't switch automatically) and with backlight options.
What happen if i update my camera? i can brick it also with the correct firmware?

Edit : i don't need it for Wildlife, i just use them for perimeter home.

 

[wittaj]

Yeah that is a known problem that an update doesn't fix.

Yes you can brick it if it is the wrong firmware.

Hi,
Anyway if i try to update the firmware of my old 5442 with the firmware suggested by Andy, the firmware won't update, i see the windows with the updating bar, but nothing happen. I think it is a browser compatibility issue, i think that the software camera is old compared to new browser. Also i don't know why Config Tool doesn't see that camera

Most of us have found the config-tool to be useless and never use it.

Try good ole Internet Explorer. Yeah we know. It is still available though and is still baked into Win10 and Win11.

If somebody need it, create a text with CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application").Visible=true and rename to .vbs, start it, IE will appear

i need to install the camera plugin to update the firmware?

Try it first without the plug-in. If it doesn't proceed, then go ahead and install it.

Thank you so much wittaj

 

[Matt-One]

It worked without the plugin

Also i don't know why Config Tool doesn't see that camera

The one thing I've found that will stop Config Tool from finding a camera is if Multicast/Broadcast is shut off on the camera. Plus there's the annoyance of having to reset the search password before changing any camera settings. "Other segment search" has always been enabled by default for me. Other than these few usage annoyances I've had no problems with Config Tool. I always attempt firmware updates through the camera's web interface. I only used Config Tool for this once when a camera wouldn't update via the web interface, and did using Config Tool. Don't have a clue why.
