What do you mean? You should have assigned a static IP to the DVR and then set the ports in the firewall section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dechowireless 0 Posted October 4, 2012 I have local access to the dvr... I can view it if I'm on the network... But I can't get 2wire router to see it when I need to port forward the dvr... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yakky 0 Posted October 5, 2012 Can't get the 2 wire to see it...lol.... did you enable port forwarding on the 2wire? Did you open a hole in the firewall of the 2 wire? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted October 5, 2012 hi. some 2 wire will only see the mac addess. look under attached devices and unplug each dvr to find its mac. then give each dvr a rule and then i.e dvr1 then direct dvr1 to a port. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
