I have just purchases a 8018. It is default set at 3 mp. I have downloaded the manual and followed the instructions to change mp to 8. However, when the camera is turned off it goes back to 3. Is this normal or a fault in my camera? Do I need to remember everytime I want use it to change it from 3mp to 8mp?

If you value your privacy, and the stability of your computer, then don't follow any suggestions that include using the genieo adware uninstaller : it leaves active software behind.

The company know this, but seem unable or unwilling to resolve it.

Instead, try to carefully follow the instructions at

The easiest way (if enabled) is to use the voice menu as if you would assign a new IP to the device.

1. Connect a telephone to one of the FXS ports. Lift the handset and dial ***12345 (three stars followed by the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
2. Wait for the 'configuration menu' voice prompt to be played.
3. To change the IP address, press 1 followed by the pound key (#).

• The current IP address of the gateway is played. Press # to change it or hang up if you don't want to change it.
  
• Dial the new IP address; use the star (*) key instead of dots ("."), e.g., 192*168*0*4 and press # to finish.
• Review the new IP address, and press 1 to save it.

Of course you can try the default IP of 10.1.10.10 if the device is set to it's default standards.

If not, you can try a network scanner like angryip (link) or network scanner (link) - this might take a long time, since the IP can be virtually anything.

If you have physical access to the device, you can also use a straight RS-232 cable to connect the AudioCodes to your PC and use HyperTerminal to connect (Baud Rate: 115,200 bps (MP-124), 9,600 bps (MP-11x), Data bits: 8, Parity: None, Stop bits: 1, Flow control: None)
