AvTech DVR - can't connect via network

[metafizx 0]

Hi,

 

I have a re-branded AvTech DVR, just says "4CH MPEG 4 DVR" on the front. circuit board says "AvTech 760M".

Anyway, cannot connect via network with "Video Server E".

 

I was able to connect successfully in the past, but for some reason it rejects the login attempt. I have the correct network info, as the Search finds the DVR. I tried changing the IP address, port, password, etc..but nothing works.

 

I have the admin and password "0000" entered, but cannot get it to work.

says "login procedure failed"

 

Does anyone have any suggestions ? Perhaps the CMOS is corrupt ?

 

also to add, I have tried disabling the firewall. I have even connected the DVR directly to the PC by cross-over.

 

this is very simple, static IP on a LAN. like I said I had it working prior, but now it won't work. even tried installing Video Server E on another PC and that didnt work either.

 

argh!

**SOLVED**

 

was a stupid problem...another post reminded me that the network login password is "admin"

 

WHY didnt that pop out from the manual ?

 

I don't see any place to set the network password with the OSD.

No, you would need to reset the DVR to factory defaults if you forgot the admin password.

ok, thanks, I see the only way to change the network password is via the Video Server E, not the OSD.

 

Probably the web app you can change it too...but I don't use that right now.
