    Hikvision DS-2DE2A404IW-DE3/W shows 'offline' in Hik-Connect but is actually online - how can this be?

    I have just set up another PTZ DS-2DE2A404IW-DE3/W and it is definitely online as (having port forwarded), I can view it online as a test. I have activated it for Hik-Connect but for whatever reason I cannot view it as it is constantly showing 'offline'. Is there something simple I've failed...

    Our Hikvision IP cameras are installed at remote properties and the easy way to disable them is to simply switch off the router. Is there any simple method of creating an alert when a router is switched off?

    Looking for external port number of a Hikvision camera - can I get it from Hik-Connect or iVMS-4200?

    My camera has been up and running at a remote location for months and is accessible via Hik-Connect and iVMS The external link however has suddenly failed although I've confirmed the exterior IP address has not and so I'm assuming either the port has changed or that the router has stopped...

    Hikvision Dome Cameras - do I need to port forward even when using HikConnect?

    I've just obtained a couple of Hikvision dome cameras and am very pleased with them. However I'd thought that when using HikConnect, that I would not need to port forward. Is that correct? I have a number of Foscam cameras and their app does not require this.
