predexinc 0 Posted September 15, 2008 I have read though this forum, posts from people with similar issues. Checked all that was said there and still have a problem: Set up client software on laptop, direct wired to system. Changed default port to 880 on system and in client software. Setup Dyndns to correct port and ip addy. Opened port 880 on Linksys WRT54GS router. Dyndns reroute hasn't worked yet. Remote viewing worked fine on 1st day wired directly to system, writed through router, over wireless and using air card. Opened the cameras with client app and through IE browser. Day 2, however, I get NOTHING. When I test using Dyndns Open Port 880 is not open. Tried changing it to other ports on system and in router, still nothing. Called Comcast and they said only port sometimes blocked is 25. Read these forums and changed to TCP only, tried DMZ, nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiwi 0 Posted September 15, 2008 A bit of a confusing post. All I can suggest is that these lines caught my attention: > Setup Dyndns to correct port and ip addy. (there is no port or IP in setup of DDNS) > Dyndns reroute hasn't worked yet. (well, then that's the problem with the DDNS side of things > tried DMZ, nothing. (have you checked the network and gateway IP's on your DVR, typically something like 255.255.255.0 and 192.168.1.1) Keep trying, the only related problem I sometimes run into is that the DNS changes do not propagate as fast as I would like and there is sometimes a delay in the access via the dyndns.org hostname. For a better answer you might want to simply list all the relevant settings you have made (perhaps we should have a standard form!) and most people who know this stuff would spot the mistake immediately.

Wachhund 0 Posted September 16, 2008 Like Kiwi posted - make sure the subnet and gateway are correct in the DVR. Also, log into DynDns from a local computer to make sure the auto detect for the external ip address is correct. Also make sure the DVR is not using DHCP and that the ip address is static on the machine. Finally, see that the router is set to automatically update the ip address daily in DDNS because Comcast will randomly change your ip address. Good Luck- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
