Hello, I hope someone is able to help and that my question is not too simple (like me!) I have an Avtech AVC796 DVR which works perfectly as a standalone unit. However, when I connect to it over my local network I am unable to login. At the welcome screen I use username ADMIN (I have upper and lower case) plus my password that I set on the box and which I successfully use locally. Then, having entered the verification code (again, using uppercase when displayed) the login fails with the message: ERROR: Authentication error. I hope it is a relatively easy fix - next up will be remote access over the internet followed by EagleEyes, but one step at a time! Kind regards, Dave.

Leohuangdi! Many Many thanks - what a dumbo I am. Worked perfectly. I should RTFM!! Regards,

Hi, I wonder if Scorpion is able to help me with a similar problem please? I have an Avtech AVC796 DVR which works perfectly as a standalone unit. However, when I connect to it over my local network I am unable to login. At the welcome screen I use username ADMIN (uppercase) plus my password that has been set on the box and which I successfully use locally. Then, having entered the verification code (again, using uppercase when displayed) the login fails with the message: ERROR: Authentication error. I hope it is a relatively easy fix - next up will be remote access over the internet followed by EagleEyes, but one step at a time! I am using an iMac and Safari to connect to the AVC. Kind regards, Dave.
