XX40a Firmware upgrade for Windows7 IE10 Review

[richy2]

I just upgrade my IE9 to IE10 and ran the camera software first before firmware upgrade.

RESULTS:
The video portion cuts off about 1/16 across the bottom of the video that is all black. i didn't upgrade firmware.

The preset controls that you use on the right, when you click them, instead of them popping up in the normal spot, they now pop up on the left side outside the software control area close to the words system and other. i didn't upgrade firmware.

Should i upgrade firmware on a chance it may correct the problem.... In my case, it's to much of a hassle to climb up the ladder, reconnect the power directly to the camera instead of keeping it with the POE, and it doesn't work, to find out that the firmware may cause another problem or not.

I would like to see some other reviews of people here with windows 7 IE9 that are/have upgraded to IE10 and camera firmware results.

Until then, if it ain't broke, don't break it.

Richy,

The cameras with the older firmware will have problems with IE10. If you use IE10 in IE9 mode (with IE open press F12 on the keyboard. One of the menu options will say “Browser Mode: IE10”. If you click that, you can select IE 9 mode), you will not have to upgrade the firmware.
