    DS-2CD2342WD-I Password reset

    That file - presumably from using the 'forgot password' button in SADP - is a reset request file that has to have a response from a Hikvision support system, it doesn't hold a password. If any of the cameras have firmware between 5.3.0 and 5.4.4 then you may be able to use this method to...

    Reconfiguring a Hikvision Doorbell camera to a new router.

    Dumb question, for which apologies : Did you consider configuring the new router base IP address and DHCP scope and WiFi settings to match those of the previous router, such that no changes to any of the connected devices would be needed?

    DS-2CD1343G2-LIU Missing Advanced Network settings

    Which should work OK with MS Edge, though this depends on the version of firmware. For web GUI missing features, it's usually the case that native Internet Explorer, or even IE Mode in Edge, works best. What browsers did you test? The Webcomponents plugin? I'm pretty sure that only integrates...

    Request: CN Firmware (3.0.x / 3.1.0) for DS-7616N-E2/8P to fix boot loop

    The file appeared to upload to the forum OK (Surprising as others have seen problems with attachments) but on checking later, the attachment does not exist. Check your DMs for a link to the file in Google Drive.

    Blacklist in IP Cam config

    Suggestion - change the PC IP address to that of the whitelist, and update the confidential.

    Request: CN Firmware (3.0.x / 3.1.0) for DS-7616N-E2/8P to fix boot loop

    It will be rebooting with a message in the serial console about a 'language mismatch'. Check your direct messages for a solution.

    Hikvision password reset tool returns "device refused to process"

    The camera configuration file decrypted OK, see the direct message for the camera admin password that with luck is the same as the NVR admin password.

    Hikvision ERI-K216-P16 – Bound to Previous User, TFTP Update Fails

    Sorry, but I don't know. I'm guessing if it's bound using the serial number, nothing will change.

    Hikvision password reset tool returns "device refused to process"

    It seems the forum has got some persistent gremlins with attachments just now. Did you zip up the file?

    Hikvision ERI-K216-P16 – Bound to Previous User, TFTP Update Fails

    That's not a process failure - it's actually a comment by the tftp updater tool that it had received a probe for ArecontVision devices. This is something the NVR does on startup, and it uses a similar UDP probe to what the NVR uses looking for the tftp updater on bootup. There are a couple of...

    Hikvision password reset tool returns "device refused to process"

    Sadly, no. That looks like the 'password reset request file' produced by SADP using the 'forgot password' link to send to Hikvision. What version of firmware does SADP show for the camera? If between 5.3.0 and 5.4.4 then this URL may pull a configuration file without requiring credentials.

    Hikvision password reset tool returns "device refused to process"

    That's for the NVR? If so, it's likely that the NVR admin password will have been used to 'activate' the camera, on that version of firmware. If the camera is connecting OK, and the firmware is newer than 5.3.0 and older than 5.4.4 then the Hikvision backdoor vulnerability should be available to...

    T5442T-ZE replacement cable

    You might be lucky with the cable choices on AliExpress, maybe able to find one that has the same board connector as the original. I recently replaced a couple of Hikvision camera ethernet cables with ones bought on AliExpress that were the exact same as the original even down to the thread to...
