Wow shocking indeed. He's personally helped me with some of my issues. He always took his time to help others and will be greatly missed. My prayers with his family in this difficult time. RIP Carl

Both problems are solved. First for some reason on that SMC router I cannot have dmz enabled and ports forwarded. I disabled DMZ and forwarded all ports using port forwarding and all my equipment is working. As for the server issue going offline, I downloaded the newest mobile server available and that solved that issue. So everything is working great and I just wanted to let everyone know problems are resolved and thanks for helping.

I enabled dmz mode for the PC with milestone and port 8081 now shows open and I can see the cameras on my phone and from my house. However, I still don't know why I can't open port 8081 individually... I know I did it right because I have other ports open individually. Now I am having another issue with the server. Even with the DMZ enabled for the PC with milestone, when I log in from my phone or home it connects me for few moments and then disconnects automatically. When I log into the PC with teamviewer the server is stopped and I have to enable it manually. When I try to reconnect, same thing happens. It lets me connect and then disconnects after a few seconds of connection. Anyone know whats going on with that?

Just tried it and still says port 8081 closed.

Could it have anything to do with the switch I am using? I was reading a little bit about this and thought that could be an issue. The switch I am using is Netgear ProSafe Plus JGS524PE-100NAS. Any ideas?

I'll double check but I don't think so. I have the same router at my house and I've got several ports forwarded the same way. Everything in that router is under the port configuration tab and port 8081 is enabled on 10.1.10.14 (LAN with the software).

Its a standard comcast business router, its an SMC (don't know the exact model at the moment).

Hi guys, I am using Milestone Xprotect Go with 6 Hik cameras. Everything seems to be working fine as far as viewing and recording but I can't get it to work on my phone or my house. I've installed the milestone mobile server component and set up everything with the localhost and port 8081 and added mobile server on the management software. I tried putting in my wan ip address in the settings there but it would not validate it so I kept it with the default. It works fine on my LAN but I can't get it to work from anywhere outside the local network. Port 8081 is forwarded on my router correctly to the local ip address of the computer that is using milestone. However, when I go to canyouseeme to see if port 8081 is open, it shows that it is closed. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for the help!

My Dahua camera is recording to a class 4 sandisk sd card. It works perfectly fine 95% of the time but there are a few dropped frames. I am purchasing an NVR soon to see if the dropped frames issue can be resolved (It could also be b/c my sd card is class 4... maybe a class 10 would eliminate the issue?).

Thats a great night shot. Which camera is it and what kind of NVR are you using?

Great videos David. I installed one of these at my house for testing and the quality is very good considering the price. I'm recording directly on the micro sd slot (32gb) but during playback I noticed there are a lot of dropped frames (its not recording all the motion even though its set to record on the sd card so it can't be a bandwith issue). Do you have any issues with dropped frames? Also, what kind of NVR are you using for 2 cameras. Thanks.

That's an impressive picture from a budget IP camera. Exactly which model is this and how well does it work at night (night shots would certainly help). Thanks.

I solved the issue by uninstalling McAfee antivirus that was installed on the computer. I figured it had something to do with the firewall settings but I couldn't figure out exactly what it was. Once it was uninstalled, I went back to default settings with windows firewall and the program started working. Tomdlgns sorry to hear about your issue. I'm not much of an expert in the area but if I were you, I would try disabling additional antivirus software you have on your machine except for default windows. It worked for me and maybe it will work you too. Good luck!

Hi, I've been using DMMultiview on my laptop for over two months and have not had an issue connecting. Yesterday when I was trying to connect from my laptop at home to view my business, I got an error that said unable to connect. I checked my internet connection at home and my business (using logmein) and both worked fine. Then I tried connecting using a different computer in my house and it worked instantly so the issue is something with the laptop that I am using. This was working before but it is not letting me connect now. Any help in resolving this issue will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Double post. Sorry
