jakesoundels 0 Posted October 2, 2012 What public IP address do you use to access the DVR? Is it a static or dynamic IP? If dynamic you can either request a static IP from your ISP or obtain a free dynamic dns account from a service like NOip. If your DVR does not support the dynamic dns service you will then have to either update your ip address manually on the noip website or download their update software. Only problem with that is a computer has to be on all the time or regularly to update you internet ip. While at a remote computer you enter the dynamic dns address in the DVRs remote software or enter it in the web browser along with the internet port (8080 in my case). Here, in the states, I also open up port 8080 and forward to the DVR's IP to that as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
