Hi I just bought this Cantonk dvr model CK-2014GA for less than $200. The machine works fine as a stand alone but its supposed to be able too be accessed via the web.
It has a lan port on it. Under the setup you can configure it for DHCP or static IP numbers.
Problem is I Cant get the ip address to work through my Link sys BEFSX41 firewall. I assigned the dvr an ip, gateway and dns numbers and a port that are available through the router.
The dvr comes with software called DX client viewer version 2.7.1 that you have to install on the remote computer to view.
It has options for net view when you click it it asks for host name, port number and user name and password.
It also has D D N S available.
I don't have a static ip so I figured maybe the D N Ns would work but cant seem to get that going either. And yes i did register for a d dns account. and the manual that came with it is not worth the paper its printed on.
Has one else run across this unit ?
Any help here would be appreciated.
Want to be able to access this unit via the wan
it comes with software to access it.
when the software start it it asks for
host name
host port
user name
password.
I'm assuming on the dvr you put in the settings you want for these then just connect to the wan.
I've tried this and no luck.
Thanks
I have the mini cd that works but could never get it to work properly.
Not sure if i can post a zip file on here as I am new.
But if you want I can e-mail them to you just forward me your address
The cd says 104 written by hand on it, nothing else on it.
btinstall is a dll. But what does it do exahertz ????
I was having similar problems with a 4 channel dvr card. I eventually gave up trying to get it too work thought it was crappy software that came with the card.
