Can't change IP address

[dsabot]

So I purchased some Hikvision DS-2CD2032F-I cameras off Amazon. I can see the camera using SADP and/or iVMS-4200, however I want to change the default IP from 192.0.0.64 to 192.168.1.50. When I type in the password that is on the back of the camera 12345 I get a failed to modify settings 2018 error. I can't for the life of me figure this out

Try using the password 123456789abc

And if you still can't get in you could try this genius' tool...

I get that sometimes...I end up changing my computers subnet to match the current IP of the camera and login to the web gui and do it

Or, alternatively, you could set up a PC (through an un-managed switch) to have an 192.0.0.X ip address, then try to log into the camera with a browser and change the camera's ip address using the web app.

Of course, why would I EVER think the default password was what was on the camera, with a new in the box unit. You are a lifesaver, that was it. Thanks a ton!

I am noticing the that's the default password on a lot more units now. Guess they changed it some time ago and any new firmware will use that password

Or you could add a secondary IP address to your PC from the same subnet as you camera sits in (192.0.0.1/24) which will act as a default gateway for your camera.
