![]() Back to System – Information to verify and yes, everything is upgraded.I am starting to really get fed up with the reolink windows client. Now, I’ll log in again and the first camera’s live feed fill the screen without the use of Flash. What’s happening here, is Chrome has cached some of the web user interface and we need to reload the entire UI. The Flash logo is still being displayed and when I click on the gear icon I get this message that the firmware is upgraded.This upgrade removes the requirement for Flash to view the camera footage. Let’s go back and ensure the upgrade was successful.Let’s carry on by clicking Upgrade and fast forward for 2 minutes.Again, don’t select the options below unless you want to reset your NVR back to defaults.Click the text box to open the dialogue to select the PAK file.Click the gear icon in the upper right.Again, using the NVR’s IP address, log into the user interface.Next, if you use your computer’s browser, like chrome, you can perform the NVR upgrade here: So, yeah, the NVR allows you to upgrade or downgrade, as long as you have the PAK file. Let’s click the link to start the download.īefore we jump into the next example, I’ve downgraded the firmware to what it was before. ![]() Yes, it’s more complicated than it needs to be. Anyways, when I compare the current firmware number after the underscore, the version on the website is greater and therefore more recent. It actually looks like my build number is part of this number but it’s cut off and rounded up 6-0-8 to 6-1. This is not the same as my build number, but close. On my current firmware version, I have 20011608 and so on. Well, once again, confusion, how do I know I need this upgrade? My current version is this. Perfect, I found my model number and my hardware version, so I guess this is the link. Not to worry, my hardware is located within this link. The one I want obviously is the latest one but the hardware number on the end here doesn’t match mine. I see 2 options one from December 2020 and one from April 2020. The easiest way to find your hardware is by opening the find feature and pasting in your model number. The layout here is terrible and has no order or organization. To see all the firmware updates, click on show more. Click the Firmware and User Manual Download link. To find additional NVR models, including mine, Reolink has those under Support -> Support Center. This is why we need to know the model and hardware numbers. These 2 Hardware versions don’t match mine and my firmware cannot be found here. This is model RLN8-410 but mine has an E at the end. When I scroll down to the RLN8-410, there is a firmware link. I’ll try to find my NVR under PoE IP Cameras & NVRs. Here on the Reolink site, we can find the most common equipment firmware by going to Support -> Download Center. ![]() For now, we have to figure that out ourselves. I wish there was a simple upgrade button that would find the latest version of the firmware and automatically download it and install it for me. ![]() Yes, we need to download the firmware from Reolink and then upload it to the NVR.
