Configure your CVR4 for Remote Access
To be able to set your CVR4 up for Remote Access, you will first require:
An ADSL connection of 512/512 minimum (ADSL2 recommended).
An ADSL Modem which supports Port Forwarding (such as Sapido, D-link or Netgear).
An “External static IP address” from your Internet Service Provider.
An “Internal Static IP address” from your Modem.
A network cable between your CVR4 and your Modem.
A windows PC on your network to configure your modem.
Once you have these you can proceed to set up the Remote Access by:
1. Give your CVR4 the internal IP Address.
2. On the CVR4 change port 80 to port 88.
3. Ping the CVR4 from a local computer to ensure it is reachable on your network.
4. Port forward ports
88, 37777, 37778, 554
in the modem, to the “Internal IP address” of CVR4.
5. You should then be able to test the connection to the CVR4 over the internet from a different
internet connection (or mobile on 3G).
Test your Remote Access by connecting to the CVR4:
When you are in the same building as the CVR4 you will be able to connect via WIFI and use the
“Internal IP address” of the CVR4. However when you are not where the CVR4 is and wish to connect
via the internet or 3G, you would use the “External static IP address” given to you by your Internet
Service Provider.
Port forwarding support:
There are many different brands and models of ADSL Modems which makes them difficult to set up, this
is why we must recommend an IT professional. Some manufacturers offer guides on their websites or
alternatively we can recommend Third-party assistance on configuring port forwarding from sites such as:
www.portforward.com
When using more than one CVR4 on a site:
Should you have more than one CVR4 on site it may be necessary to set the second machine to a
different set of port. For example set CVR4 (1) to port 88 and then CVR4 (2) to port 89.
Important:
Before Setting up remote access for your CVR4, you will need a good understanding of
computer networks. If you do not, please seek the assistance of a qualified I.T. professional.
