Does anyone know how to reset it to default? The software changed my username but botched the password so I cant get in to change it back.

Inside of the small hole, there should be two tiny pieces of metal. Please use a wire to short cut the two metal pieces and hold for 15 seconds, it will reset the camera.

Good question. I ordered 2 of these that didn't come with the admin password. Ended up sending the back because none of the tech support people could tell me what it was.

Try to change SSID to a Nickname to prevent number from showing. Also make sure it is password protected. Hope this helps.

After doing a lot of research on Google and various tech forums, I found a login that actually opens up more options than the regular 'admin' and 'password' default username and password (without the quotes). Use MSO as the username, and changeme as the password. Now there should be a couple more menus to choose from as far as blocking certain services and turning off certain firewall functions.

I can't answer that question as it wasn't anything I paid attention to... I was more interested in getting the silly thing to let me log on and actually function! ;o) Sorry!

There is a capability to "reset/reenter" your password but I forget what it is called on the device. I was afraid it would wipe out everything but it did not. I reused my original password and everything was fine.

found this in another forum, works perfect."To disable it right-click on the parental control icon in the lower right task bar and click "Free of Control Mode" (you may have to click the expand arrow to see all the programs). Also, if you haven't ever opened parental control, you may or may not have to create a password first, but then everything should work fine."

You are welcome! I spent all night lastnight trying to fathom it! I gave up and decided to start afresh today! You do indeed need to disable the entire antivirus/firewall software! Have nothing running to succeed! Merry Christmas Matt! Let's hope the lil ones spend as much time playing with it! :)

Where do you get the pass code from? Mine just asks for the code, but doesn't display anything other than "hint, try 0000, or 1234", neither of which work.

Thank you for your business. The default setting for user name and password is, user ID: admin. There is no password or 888888. Please try that. Please note that this is the user ID and password to access the camera, not for your wifi.

Sorry wish I could help. I brought 2....one stop working so I got a refund & the other I forgot the password so it won't let me in & im trying figure out how to do a factory reset. Nothing in the owner Manuel.

Default value is: User name 'admin' Password 'admin' Wait 30 minutes and then reset dvr. Then, enter default values or previously set custom values. Download and read user manual or contact support at qsee.custhelp.com

yep, put in my Key 1 10 HEX characters instead of my passphrase and presto! Connected. Thank you for posting this - good luck all.

John,I couldn't get mine to connect so I called Samsung and was told that my router's security setting must be WPA2. My router couldn't do that so I replaced it. The new router worked well 1st time. The default password was 8 numbers but I later changed it to 10 characters. It worked both ways.Paul

You have a USER password and an ADMIN password, if those are set then the unit is useless without the password.USER can change screen views, I am not sure what else but not much, cannot get into the other menus, cannot change anything.ADMIN, of course, can do whatever. A bit convoluted to disable them so be sure you need them.

Plug modem into WAN port, your computer into LAN port, open your browser and type 192.168.1.1 in the address bar. Enter default user name and password (you will need to find online). Being refurbished, it may be possible that the default UN and password had been changed and not reset (I had that with some different refurb units I bought elsewhere). If that's the case use the reset button on the back of the router. Go through on screen tabs to make the adjustments you need.
