Last night my Dahua NVR (NVR4216-16P-4KS2) dropped all my cameras.
The fan is working, but thats it. This NVR has no reset button.
Is there a way to reset the NVR with no reset button?

Thanks,
Tubac

Have you tried to log into the NVR's webGUI using it's LAN IP in a browser on a PC that's on the same LAN, same subnet?

Is the same NVR from July of '23?

This NVR was purchased from security camera king in 2020. Their model number is NVR-ele16m 16p4ks2. I think it is actually a Dahua NVR4216-16P-4KS2
NVR . I couldn't get into the web gui, tried that. I hope there is another way...

It sounds like you have network issues not NVR issues… were you able to get into the web GUI for the NVR before?

Only other way in is with a vga monitor and mouse directly connected to the machine

I have an old NVR and switched to it when I lost the cameras on the present one but it seems it is the NVR because the old one could see the cameras I plugged into the POE . I just spent an hour with tech guys at SCK and unfortunately it seems that the only way to reset it is through the Web GUI, and I cannot get to it.
I have to order a new one. And so it goes...
