Remote Access via Web Client
Chapter 6
Use the Web Client to remotely access your DVR at any time via a PC. Before you access the
Web Client, you need to ensure that the network settings of the DVR are configured properly. The
most convenient and easiest way is if you have set the DVR a static IP address (please see
“
5.5.1 Network
”). It means you only need to open the web browser on your PC and type in the
static IP address you have set on the DVR. However, if the IP address of the DVR is assigned by a
DHCP server (see “
5.5.1 Network
”), then it means that each time you reboot the DVR, the IP
address changes. In this case, ask if your ISP can provide you a static IP address. If not, then
configure the DDNS service. See the network settings in “
5.5.4 DDNS
”.
