SectorSecurity 0 Posted May 14, 2011 You can not port forward on a hub, I think you have confused hub with router, a hub will do nothing other then broadcast traffic, whereas a router can be used to route traffic around. Set a static IP address on your DVR (will keep it from changing on you) then port forward incoming traffic from your external IP address to the internal IP address of the DVR on the network and the media port of your DVR.
