On the password, I could only choose a 6-digit number, can't use letters.
The DVR manual states that in the Web Application Manager section that the password is the same as the one set in DVR. I made another username & password but that had login failed also. Also, in the DVR manual it says that "if forget your password, please make the jump J16 on the main board short for about 5 seconds when machine works, user can access system menu to change your password again". The manual isn't written in very good English, but i tried this and it didn't seem to do anything.
The only system setting I see is: "Load Default-Restores all the settings to factory settings." I also tried this but the only setting it changes are the recording & alarm settings. Still had to use the same user & password.
I think it's just a very cheap DVR, got it off ebay. Guess I should have expected that. lol
Thank you for all of your suggestions though.
