5.5.4 ACCESSING THE DVR FROM A REMOTE COMPUTER
To access from a remote computer, after you complete the above steps you need to
forward ports 5000 and 5001 on the router the DVR is attached to, to the IP address of
the DVR. How you would do this depends on the brand and model number of your router.
You can go to
www.portforward.com
to get instructions on how to forward ports on most
popular routers. This information should also be available in your router’s manual. To
access your router's program you would open an internet browser window and type the
default gateway of the router into the address bar at the top of the window. Then follow
the instructions for your router. To connect to the DVR from a remote computer you
would then open the PC Viewer program, go to the settings tab and enter the internet IP
address of your router. To get the internet IP of your router go to
www.myipaddress.com
from a computer that is attached to the same router as the DVR. Once you have entered
this address into the PC Viewer program, click on the connect button and enter the
password for the DVR. Once you get the “connect ok” message, click on the play button
and the video should start. To disconnect remember to click the quit button (same as the
connect button) to exit the program and release the ports on the DVR. This is important
because only one person at a time can connect to the DVR using the PC Viewer program.
Refer to 7. Using the PC Viewer software for instructions on using this program
