TESTING PORT FORWARDING
If you would like to see if your port forwarding worked, follow these steps :
1.Open a web browser and type in www.whatsmyip.org.
2.Your External IP address will be listed on the top center of the screen, make sure to write it down. This is the address that you can use when not at home to connect onto your DVR.
3.Open another web browser.
4.Type in www.canyouseeme.org. This site also allows you to see your external IP address.
5.You will see your external IP address and underneath it you will see a box saying “what port?”
6.In the box, put the port numbers you set the DVR to. The default ports are 80 and 9000 (you have to forward both, please make sure you check both ports.)
7.Click the check button and scroll down.
8.You will see a message that tells you that it can successfully see your port. This means you have successfully port forwarded.
9.If you receive an error message please view “IF YOU CANNOT CONNECT” on Pg. 60. If you’re still having trouble you can always contact SVAT’s 24/7 support team.
