Soundy 1 Posted October 6, 2011 Check your network cable - if you're connecting directly between computer and DVR, you may need to be using a crossover cable. If the cable is good, check inside the network ports of both machines, make sure there are no bent pins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chaz 0 Posted October 6, 2011 have you given the dvr the static address of 10.1.3.216? if so, give the computer a static address of 10.1.3.215 and using a ]crossover cable you should be able to connect. try to ping the dvr to check the settings and crossover cable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
