Connecting your DVR to the internet
In order to connect your Yale DVR to the internet for remote internet viewing, you will need the following:
Home Network environment:
•
You will need a fixed-line broadband router with fast internet access (ideally 10Mps+).
•
The router needs to have at least one spare wired network socket (connecting to the Yale DVR).
•
Access to the local administration screen on your router. This allows trouble shooting in the event of
issues related to firewall and port settings. Please ask your router manufacturer for more information.
•
Most home network uses dynamic IP addresses. Performance will improve if the network uses Static IP
address (some ISP provides this as an option).
•
If you use the default automatic setting (auto-connection to the Yale Cloud), your router’s DHCP must be
enabled.
Please note: This DVR may not perform optimally in some corporate environments. Large
company network normally uses Symmetric NAT and this will degrade the connectivity, speed
and performance of certain remote operations.
Remote viewing via smart phone:
•
Please search and download “Yale Easy Fit DVR” app from iOS iphone app store and Google Play
store.
•
Compatible with iOS 7+ and Android 4.1+
•
Minimum recommended resolution 600 x 900
•
For optimal performance, your mobile phone need to have fast internet access (at least 3G+ with good
signal strength). Due to many mobile phone operators adopting CGN (carrier grade NAT), you may
find that your connection works much faster when you are connected to a home WiFi network. This is
because CGN uses Symmetric NAT and sometimes resulted in reduced performance
