Older Dahua IPC - Latest firmware

[mare92]

Hey,
I just got an older Dahua camera - IPC-HDBW2200R-Z which is on SV: 2.420.0009.R build: 2015-11-06
I don't quite understand their firmware versions. Is it this one? General_IPC-HX2XXX-Molec_MultiLang_PN_V2.820.0000000.38.R.211111? Or maybe DH_IPC-HX2XXX-Molec_MultiLang_PN_V2.820.0000000.38.R.211111?
Can you point me which is the latest one and how can I download it? I have a few problems in web browser with that one and hope it resolves with update.
Thank you!

Try using Explorer. Dahua is sensitive to browsers. Not Edge, not Chrome with IE tab, but plain ole Explorer.

To date firmware updates have been to resolve vulnerabilities and not web browser issues, so you may end up causing more problems by updating.

It is best to obtain any firmware updates from the vendor you purchased it from so that you do not run into issues. Any firmware you find here or elsewhere is obviously proceed at your own risk. We have many threads here where someone tried an update with a firmware they found on the internet and bricked their unit.

Many units being sold are Chinese hacked units into English that will either brick or go into Chinese upon updating. Some vendors will be upfront and tell consumers that as part of their website, but many do not or the consumer forgets...here is one such example....

Hi Mare92! Did you managed to get a newer firmware for your camera? I have same model here with older firmware, and can't find a newer fw from dealers support pages. I wonder if your firmware has already p2p support?
