NETWORK to open the
NETWORK SETUP menu.
If you would like to access your DVR while you are outside of your home, please follow the
instructions below to configure the NETWORK Setup page of your DVR
Important Note
: If you are using a DSL modem, the modem must be set to “bridge mode”.
Important Note
: We will not be able to help you set up the network configurations if you have a
RADIUS Server or Network Magic installed.
Note
: Prior to changing the NETWORK Setup of your DVR, it is strongly recommended that
you perform the following tasks:
1. Find out from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) what kind of service you are using.
Note
: Your DVR supports these three common types of Internet Services: DHCP (Cable
Modem), PPPoE (DSL Modem) and Static IP (Fiber Optics). Actual service type may vary,
please ask your ISP for the exact service type.
2. Write down the: IP Address provided by your ISP (if your ISP is using Static IP), Subnet
Mask, Gateway Address, DNS Address(es) provided by your ISP of your DVR for future
reference when configuring the DVR
DHCP
1. If your ISP uses DHCP networking, select DHCP
network TYPE.
2. Leave Media Port at 9007
3. Setup Web Port (leave at 80 but some ISPs block
inbound traffic on port 80 to prevent web servers so if
the DVR cannot be remotely accessed choose a
different port number)
4. Leave the UPNP option at “ON”. Click the “DDNS
SETUP” Button.
5. You will need to apply for a Dynamic DNS account and
register a Domain Name with one of the known DDNS
provider. Enter your DDNS Provider’s HOST NAME,
USERNAME, and PASSWORD in the DDNS SETUP
page.
