DDNS Setup (Advanced) 20
Setting up DDNS connectivity allows you to view your recorder from any computer or compatible
mobile device with Internet access.
NOTE
The primary connectivity option for the recorder uses the Lorex Home app to connect to your system over the In-
ternet without the need for port forwarding or DDNS registration.
• For instructions on using the Lorex Home app for mobile devices, see , page .
20.1 STEP 1: Port Forwarding
If you are using DDNS, you
must
port forward the HTTP and Client Ports (default:
80
and
35000 ) on your router to your recorder’s IP address before you can remotely connect to your
system:
• Manually port forward the required ports on your router to your recorder’s IP address by fol-
lowing your router manufacturer’s instructions. For more information on port forwarding, see
the reference guides on
lorex.com .
