Accessing dvr viewing via IP

Recommended Posts

Would the customer need a dedicated ip for him to view his cameras that are installed at his home from somewhere else. He has DSL and an IP. Will I use that IP in his DVR or he would need a separate one.

 

help and confused.

you can use a free service like no-ip.com to manage the dynamic ips if your client cant get a static ip for their dvr. other than that if they are going to use a router after the modem then you need to do some port forwarding according to the dvr manual - usually ports 80, 3000-3005 etc

It depends on the configuration of the DSL modem.

 

Usually the modem does the login to the ISP, gets an internet address (which is fixed in your case) and provides router address translation functionality to a separate local area network range like 10.1.1.x or 192.168.1.x.

 

Set the DVR to a static IP in the range and forward the required port(s) (eg 80) to that local DVR IP.

 

Indicate the router and DVR brand if you need more help.
