How to reset the network password for your wireless camera systemUpdated 9 months ago



Are you trying to connect your wireless monitor screen to the MyCamView app so you can view it on your phone? If you have forgotten the password or it is not connecting after the device has been added to MyCamView, don't worry! Resetting the network password is extremely easy.


Purpose of the Guide

This guide will show you how to reset the network password, which is needed to view the wireless CCTV footage remotely through the MyCamView app. 


Before you Begin

You will need your monitor screen and your phone with MyCamView installed so that you can check the device connects after the network password has been reset. The default password is '000000', so it's worth trying this first.


Background

The network password is used to ensure that the device can only be viewed remotely by authorised users. It is not needed to use the actual monitor screen itself.


Let's get Started

  1. Go to Settings in the main menu of the monitor screen
  2. Go to Network in the Settings menu 
  3. Go to Reset Password in the Network menu
  4. Select yes to reset the password
  5. The password will now be reset to the default, which is '000000'
  6. When you connect to the device in MyCamView you can just enter this password and then it will ask you to enter a new one (because six zeros is not a very secure password).
  7. If it has successfully connected you will see the device in the MyCamView device list with 'Connected' underneath.
