If so it could be a waste of time. Esp if the firmware backdoor update has been patched. One Night owl will respond to a browser entry of its IP address. 192.168.1.005. The other nightowl (HDA-10 something) will not respond at all from any browser to its address if 192.168.1.100.
the only way to view it on my PC is from a downloaded program from their website.
So again. If time is money you could just throw a user friendly dvr at it. Like mine. (AMDV8M8-H5)
I found out that they are owned/run by Wisenet aka Hanwa. I downloaded the Wisenet Device manager and it will not find it either. I am stumped. I watched the packets in Wireshark, it is hitting Port 9000 and 554 when I use BI to search/find. But nothing will play in VLC, and BI can't find it. I turned my firewalls off. I added port forwarding for all of the ports. I wanted to try and update the firmware, but can't find it.
I am giving this the college try, but failing. Now I am frustrated enough to keep throwing stuff at it.
