I bought a few months ago a CCTV DVR, but I cannot find any support etc on it

 

The only number I can find on the unit is VU-431

 

I'm looking to check for latest firmware, and also to resolve a problem with IE9, it gives me the login page, but then always tells me my password is wrong and i know it isn't.

 

Any assistance greatfully appreciated please.

 

Many thanks

hi,

I think all DVR are without pw, means pw line is blank and just push ok.

where you buy it?

where are their tech-support?

I really have a question, why so many ppl buy things but can't find who sold to you for questioning?

 

I set a PW which when I type it in I know it is correct, i've now reverted back to IE8 and its working fine again.

 

But still would like to find where I can check for latest firmware etc if ne1 can help please.

 

who is the manufacturer and where is their tech support?

I googled "VU-431" and found this with the first hit:

http://www.aban.co.uk/4ch-dvr-vu-431-712-p.asp

 

No manufacturer listed (big surprise) but you could try contacting this store and ask if they have support contact info, like a manufacturer name, website, or whatever (although I suspect they won't).

 

This is a perfect example of why a "cheap" system isn't really worth it... or, "you get what you pay for".

 

Edit: Hmmm, from perusing the site, it look like the the brand name on the DVR is "ABAN", which is the name of the site... meaning they may be re-branding these units themselves. So they may actually have support for it.

Why not get rid of it....buy another one from somebody on this forum local to you --- and then you will have all the support you need?

 

Unless someone can donate me one, I don't have the finances to purchase a replacement unit

 

But you are right, I am dissapointed regarding the support I am getting regarding the unit I do have.

To be fair, you never contacted us asking for help, if you had we could have resolved any issues.

I stumbled across this post by mistake and have offered a fix which you have already used.

 

Again, if you would like any help or advice regarding your product, please call our free phone tech line on: 0800 612 2839.

 

 

Many thanks.

I would think that by now most companies would have support for IE9. Granted, I do not like IE9 myself and don't use it. I've left all my computers with IE8 and only use that when I need to. Otherwise, I use Firefox all the time.
