Changed my wireless password, can't connect cameras anymore?

[skywalker10]

Hello,

I changed my modem's wireless password, and now the IP Cameras seems offline. The NVR connects to my modem with LAN cable. How can I fix this?

Thanks.

PS: It's Hikvision (Haikon) and I can reach the NVR interface both with the browser and IVMS-4200 application.

If your HikVision NVR is wired to your network, then I don't know what would be affected by changing your wireless password?

Are your cameras wireless?

 

[skywalker10]

Yes, they are wireless.

Then they will no longer be accessible, you will need to re-connect to each camera with a network cable and teach it the new wireless password before it can use your wi-fi again.

Oh, thank you for the answer, I guess I will use my old password again.

And while I try to find a solution, I accidentally enabled DHCP in network settings, and now I can’t reach the NVR interface and take it back. Do I need to reset the device to factory defaults? I’m messing up everything

You can use HikVision's SADP utility to scan your network and reveal the current IP addresses of all your HikVision devices:
DOWNLOAD PORTAL

You can also acess them and change settings from SADP e.g. disable DCHP if you wish.

Thanks, it worked. Thank you so much!

Hello , you can reset the modem then you can find the default password on datasheet and you reconfugurate it
