313-313 0 Posted October 16, 2007 hi I am using this H.264 dvr. I have configured it, so that the owner can watch his business remotely. I have forwarded port 8000. i can be accessed to the log in page. After I enter the user name and password I get the following message. "due to network or dvr busy, register dvr failed". In the web browser i enter the url as **.***.***.**:8000. Is there any other port that I need to forward. The other thing that I noticed was that I cannot ping to that ip address. NEED HELP thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiwi 0 Posted October 16, 2007 Do you know the brand of the DVR? Have you looked in the manual to see what ports are used - there may be others used to transfer the picture. The lack of ping is probably because the router is set up to not respond, often the default. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
313-313 0 Posted October 16, 2007 the brand is rta-xla from intellicam systems. they recommend system port as 8000 and http as 80. Does TCP or UDP matter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiwi 0 Posted October 17, 2007 If you don't have the docs, I found them here: http://tinyurl.com/24st4e It looks like port 8001 is also used, and yes UDP/TCP matters. Assign both if in doubt. Why not just assign the DVR as DMZ in the router? - much easier - does all the ports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
