hi all,

i have recently installed an alien pro 16ch dvr and i would like to view my recorder remotely, i have done all the neccessary stuff like dyndns, DMZ server on router etc, when i type the hostname into I.E on a computer within my network up comes the dvr instantly, but on an outside network the message appears "this link appears to be broken". i have tried portforwarding and it tells me the port is closed but i set it up to be open on the router, the port is 8000 and and I.P 192.168.0.10

 

please could you help me , any ideas at all is greatly appreciated.

port 8000 = port 80. sky will block you using this for you cctv. i have this problem with sky all the time.

on the dvr set your port to 5550. then go back into your netgear and portforward 192.168.0.10 to that port 5550. then use google and type myip.

this will give you your external ip. you only use this when you are away from your home.
