New Lorex system, can login local but not external

Recommended Posts

Ok its not what you think, I can get access externally to the DVR but always get login failed. Same credentials are fine over local ip, and its not a port issue as I'm accessing the DVR. I called tech support and they said to try port 85 instead of 80, but I cant make sense of this as I have access to the DVR.

 

This is a strange setup to me as they are Digital cameras going over BNC connection rather then what one would normally see using POE. The tech was even surprised of the problem and this kind of system being digital over an analog setup.

 

Appreciate any ideas to try.

Updating my own post in hopes to help others in the future.

 

For security and protection reasons, you cannot access a lorex system with the default password over WAN (externally). changed the default password and all is well.

Found this post trying to solve the same issue. We have several users, and no default passwords but I still get "login failed!" when trying to login remotely, and I've ticked the WAN radio button.
