Do you have port forwarding set up? Do you have a static IP? Did you try to enter a colon after the public IP in IE followed by the DVR's port number? Does the DVR have remote software and if so, what happens if you enter the ip?

It sounds like you're connecting to the router rather than the DVR. They may be fighting for the same web port 80. The router's default interface port is 80, and if your DVR's is the same, then it's probably what's happening.

 

In your DVR manual, you should find the following (but not exactly the same wording):

 

web port: 80

data port: xxxx

admin port: xxxx

 

and so on and so forth.

 

If you are typing in the local IP address (192.168.0.101 or something like this) and then you're able to connect to the DVR, then you are connecting via the DVR's web port, port 80. So you need to either change the router's web interface port to 8080 or 8000 or something like that so that it does not conflict with the DVR. Or you can change the DVR's port to something else.

 

Then ensure that the ports are forwarded correctly for the DVR. If the DVR's IP address is 192.168.0.101, then make sure that all the ports related to the DVR are forwarded.

 

If you have not changed the DVR's web port (and changed the router's web port), then use the external IP address and it should connect you to your DVR. If you have changed your DVR's web port to, for example, 8080, then it's the external IP then the port. So if your external IP is 84.29.101.14, then you need to type the following full address, including the http://: http://84.29.101.14:8080 and you should connect to your DVR.
