| + | * Turn off the camera by removing the power cord. | ||
| + | * Press and hold the Reset button. | ||
| + | * Plug the power cord back into the device while holding down the Reset until the blue LED goes out (about 8-10 seconds). | ||
| + | * Release reset. | ||
| + | * The camera will boot and therefore the web interface for emergency recovery will default to IP 192.168.0.20 | ||
| + | * Connect your computer to the camera with an Ethernet cable. | ||
| + | * Configure your computer to a static IP 192.168.0.10 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0 (/24). | ||

| + | * Open in a web browser the emergency web interface on http:// | ||
| + | |||
| + | You should see the following message: "The browser you are using may have difficulty receiving images and video. If you experience any issues viewing this page, we suggest using Internet Explorer." | ||
| + | |||

| + | curl -F firmware=@/ | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | Wait until end of upload procedure and the camera will reboot. This can take up to 5 minutes. | ||
| + | After bootup, OpenWrt is reachable at 192.168.1.1 via LAN. | ||
| + | Do not forget to reconfigure your network interface on the computer back to DHCP. | ||
