The DDNS name you choose must be unique; that is, it must not already be in use. Please go to the website http://everfocusddns.com and check that the name you wish to use is available.
PLEASE NOTE: The name of the DVR cannot include a space, or a dot (period) or any special
characters particularly ~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) + < > " ; : . , _
In the DVR’s Network Menu above, go to DDNS. Choose “everfocusddns.com” for the Server and put in your chosen name (verified available and without special characters) for DVR Name/hostname.
Press the Select or Submit/Update button to synchronize the DVR with the DDNS server. You should see an indication of “Success” on the screen. If you see “Could Not Find Server” or any other error message instead,
Example: http://hostname.everfocusddns.com
It is not necessary to append the HTTP port number to the DDNS name. The EverFocus DDNS server not only keeps track of your DVR’s IP address, it keeps track of the ports too!
