I use W10 and had no trouble using TFTP (with firewall off and Malewarebytes disabled). I got 3.4.0 working on my 7604N E1/4P by using the original chinese firmware from the chinese website. I reset my unit to 3.0.10 (english) and then went to 3.3.1 and then 3.4.0. 3.3.4 also always bricked...

Well, I managed to fix mine and I have no idea why it worked. I, by luck, found an old 3.0.10 firmware file someone here posted and it worked, bringing my unit back to English. I then updated to 3.3.1 which worked before in English (modded with hiktools). I still needed 3.4.0 for my new...

Thanks for the info. I managed to reset and then changed the password using the web portal. It never gave me that chance before.

Update: I didn't know the camera had a reset button hidden next to the lens. I reset it and managed to get the password changed. In fact, the reset fixed everything. I plugged it into my NVR and it picked it up right away. Now everything works and I vow never to mess with it again :D

This camera has been a huge problem. I received it yesterday and added it to my NVR network and it didn't work. I thought I needed new firmware so I updated and had various problems but finally solved it, updating my 7604N E1/4P to 3.4.0 When I scanned for the camera again it wouldn't find it...

Since I had to change the language I'm thinking my NVR is a Chinese locked version (if I knew this was a thing I would have tried to locate one locally). I can see all the serial info is in Chinese but does not have "CH" in front of the code (the US site warns of grey market units). My unit has...

I'm having problems with my NVR after updating (dreaded boot loop with the logo visible on screen) and asking if someone could upload the TFTP software needed to fix it (no longer available from Hikvision). While I wait for that though I'm wondering if anyone has found any differences between...

Yeah, same problem here. I found a version from 2007 in chinese and it doesn't locate my NVR.

Does anyone have this software available other than from HIKVISION? I have searched both their sites (overseas and europe) and they both do not have the TFTP software.
