If your Internet connection is DSL (a broadband connection that comes 

through your phone line) you may need to configure PPPoE settings 

in your DVR. If you do not know what type of broadband connection 

you have, contact your internet service provider. Ask your ISP if your 

internet connection is cable or DSL.

 

IMPORTANT

 

 

If you have cable: 

Skip the DSL section below and continue 

with the 

Port Forwarding

 Section.

 

If you have DSL:

 Find your user name and password. If you do 

not have it, ask them how you can find it. 

1.  Click on the CONFIGURATION button in the DVR browser.

2.  Under 

Remote IP Assignment, 

enter your DSL user name in the  

 

User Name box.

3.   Enter your DSL password in the Password box.

4.   Re-enter your password in the Confirm box.

5.  Click the “Set Change” button.

6.  Click the “Reboot” button.

7.    Power off the DVR and power it back on to confirm the changes.  

 

The changes will not take effect until you restart the DVR. 

8.  Follow the steps listed in the 

Port Forwarding

 section

 

CoNNECT To THE INTERNET

PoRT FoRWARDING

Port forwarding is a necessary step that opens a path on your home/

business  network  to  allow  you  to  view  your  DVR  video  feed  from 

outside your network (over the internet).

There are hundreds of makes and brands of routers on the market and 

these instructions have been made using a D-Link router (Model DI-

524). If you have a router that is different than shown, 

please visit 

www.portforward.com and go to the link marked GUIDES. Once 

on this page, go to the link marked Port Forwarding Guides by 

Router. 

Find your router make and model in the list of links and click 

on it. You will see a list of various applications. Find a link for any 

DVR or IP camera and click on it. Follow the instructions but make 

sure you forward the correct port number (the port number assigned to 

your DVR. The default port number is 2000. )

The steps for your router will be similar to the following.

These instructions have also been created without a firewall in place. If 

you have a firewall, please consult a computer technician.

NOTE:

 Your router may require a user name and password. If you do 

not know it, ask the person who configured your network. Portfor-

ward.com will provide you with each router’s default user name 

and password.
