blake 0 Posted December 21, 2011 So i plan on installing a dvr in the attic in a lockbox and have the dvr connected to the network in the house thru the router.I know i can view the dvr on the network,but my question is this.Since i wouldn't want to go up into the attic to burn the footage onto a thumbdrive,could i log into the dvr on the laptop,insert a thumbdrive into my laptop and copy the footage that way without ever having to physically go the actual dvr?

SEANHAWG 1 Posted December 21, 2011 Yes. See this: http://www.nellyssurplus.com/backupnetwork.pdf Make sure you attic does not get too hot during the summer. Those attics can get really hot and heat kills. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soundy 1 Posted December 21, 2011 It would require the remote client to support that function. Not all do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
