Using the DVC-1000 with Routers, Gateways or Broadband Modems (continued)

Opening Ports on Your Routers and Gateways

The firewall security features built into most routers and gateways prevent users from accessing the video and audio of their DVC-1000.

A router connects to the Internet through a series of numbered ports. The ports used by the DVC-1000 are blocked from access over the Internet by the firewall features of the router.

You need to open the ports on your router to the Internet to allow access to the DVC-1000.

The router or gateway that you are using may be different from the example shown on the following pages. However, the general procedure for opening ports will be similar. (If you do not have a D-Link router, look for Virtual Server, Firewall Rules, Port Forwarding, Advanced or Firewall in your router’s configuration utility.)

In the example that follows we begin by opening the Web configuration utility and going to Advanced > Virtual Server.

Follow the steps on the next 2 pages to open the ports on your router for successful operation of the DVC-1000.
