DDNS Setup (Advanced) 22
Setting up DDNS connectivity allows you to view your recorder from any computer or compati-
ble 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 18 Connecting Remotely using the
Lorex Home Mobile App , page 89.
22.1 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 .
