Re: Linking ASH21 w/ synology surveillance station

anyone found a way to get Wifi working without having the ethernet cable plugged in? port 554 on Wifi is closed/unavailable when using Wifi only.

Re: ASH21-B - View On other than Phone App

Amcrest Support was initially responsive but went completely dark the past 2 months with NO fix. I recommend AVOIDING these cameras until they resolve the Wifi issues.

Re: Browser plugins don't work?

Same here - nothing works on my Mac (Chrome, Canary, Firefox, Safari). Parallels w/ W10 and IE worked for 30 seconds then locks up. Looks like Amcrest is a goner. their newest cams dont even work with RTSP on Wifi. Garbage.

Re: ASH21 ports closed until ethernet plugged in - bug?

@talormanda BTW, I did just see in another thread that jazzmonger said that using new or old ASH21 firmware does not fix the problem. That's correct. I have several of these cams and tried one that was on the old firmware with no luck. Amazingly, I connected with Amcrest tech support about a week a...

Re: ASH21-B - View On other than Phone App

I also verified this problem with the old firmware and new firmware. Same problem.

The *only* way I could get Amcrestview Pro to see the ASH21 was to use p2p. This Does me no good on the NVR though, nor on home assistant.

Re: ASH21-B - View On other than Phone App

Anyone find a solution to this yet? Amcrest support is worthless.

Re: ASH21 ports closed until ethernet plugged in - bug?

I wonder if that has something to do with the problem. My WIFI ASH21 works and has firmware dated 2019-11-06. It Works is very subjective... it works ONLY with the Amcrest Smart Home app on Wifi. Literally Nothing else will work using Wifi. Not even the Amcrest NVR's ( I have the 8 ch and a brand n...

Re: ASH21 ports closed until ethernet plugged in - bug?

I can confirm this MAJOR BUG . What a drag. I just bought 5 of these and will have to return ALL of them. They won't even connect to the Amcrest NVR's which I have 2 of, not to mention any home automation systems like home assistant. Here's proof. Nmap #1 is with the ethernet cable unplugged. Nmap t...
