pdamo 0 Posted April 23, 2016 Hi All I have a HIKvision DVR which I would like to set up for home monitoring without using the internet. (Rural Location) I have a spare wireless router and would like to set this up so that I can view from various parts of the house using and ipad or Laptop. Is it possible to configure the spare router to do this and if so could someone point me in the right direction thanks in advance P:J Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daryl733 0 Posted April 23, 2016 Just set it up the usual way but without internet. Login to the DVR through the wifi provided by the router to monitor in the range of the wifi using the local IP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pdamo 0 Posted April 23, 2016 Thanks for that I think I get it. Is there any particular program or app to view the cameras ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daryl733 0 Posted April 23, 2016 iVMS-4500 for the mobile devices (search in app store) iVMS-4200 for the PC/Mac (get it from their website) Or you can use the web browser. Use Local IP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pdamo 0 Posted April 23, 2016 Ok Managed to get to the login page on the local ip but when I put the login details I setup when activating it says user login failed now it says you have 4 more attempts .....any ideas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daryl733 0 Posted April 24, 2016 It's case sensitive. If you have physical access to the DVR, just switch it off and on when you exhaust all password attempts. However if you really cannot remember the correct password, it'll be troublesome. http://overseas.hikvision.com/ueditor/net/upload/2015-12-24/b7d67cfb-e66d-477a-ae71-ec751d86da85.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
