How to fix Lorex Network Hardware when it's not powering on?
- K
  Kimberly HarmonAug 13, 2025
  If your Lorex Network Hardware isn't powering on, start by checking the power connections. Ensure the cable from the power adapter is securely connected to the back of the unit and plugged into the outlet. Also, verify that the power switch is in the ON (I) position. If it's still not working, try plugging the power adapter directly into a wall outlet, bypassing any power bars or surge protectors. Confirm the outlet is working by testing it with another device.

What to do if there is no picture on my monitor/TV connected to Lorex Network Hardware?

  lidavidAug 17, 2025
  If you're not seeing a picture on your monitor/TV after connecting it to the Lorex Network Hardware, first power cycle both the monitor/TV and the system. Turn them off, then turn the monitor/TV back on first, followed by the system. Ensure that you have selected the correct input channel on your monitor/TV to which the system is connected. Also, check the video cable connection to both the system and the monitor/TV to make sure it is secure.
