    Thanks. Will check the client software now and see if its possible. Also, one very basic question: Why are two ports (web and data) need to be forwarded?

    Multiple DVR connection

    There are a few ways to do it, although with this many different machines, depending on how the DVRs do it, it could become a logistical nightmare... or at least a logistical pain in the arse. For starters, most DVRs with web clients use at least two ports: HTTP on port 80 for the initial incoming connection, and a second separate data port that the web client actually communicates and receives video on. Setting up unique forwarding for the HTTP ports is easy - personally, I'd leave the DVRs all on 80, and then set the router to handle the forwarding as necessary... for example, "public" port 81 might forward to "private" port 80 for L1's DVR; port 82 for L2's DVR, etc. Then from the outside, you'd use "http://shrenik.com:81" to view L1; "http://shrenik.com:82" for L2, and so on. Where it gets tricky is in forwarding the data ports: you would need to make sure the client allows you to specify a different data port(s). If it uses, for example, port 8000, and there's no option to change that in the client, then you'll have no way to make the remote client route to the proper system. With that many machines (and I'm guessing a buttload of cameras to go with them) you really want to be careful to control outside access, because your internet connection could get saturated really fast. Can i not simply use the below setting for each DVR: L1: HTTP port - 81 ; Data Port 8001 L2: HTTP port - 82 ; Data Port 8002 L3: HTTP port - 83 ; Data Port 8003 and so on.... And then use the client software using ports 8000, 8001, 8002, ... for L1, L2, L3.... ????

    Thanks !!! Can you also help in how would the port forwarding work for the topology I had in mind?

    Multiple DVR connection

    The layout is of a residential complex with buildings towering 10 floors. Hence, wireless from each location to CR will be difficult. What I was thinking of is to connect DVRs wherever possible using wired connections and then adding wireless access point at other locations. Say, connect L2 and L3 using a switch and similarly L4, L5 and L6 using a switch. Then use multiple point-to-point wireless access points to connect L1 to L2-L3 :: L2-L3 to L4-L5-L6 :: L7 to L4-L5-L6 :: and finally L4-L5-L6 to CR. Is this possible?
