Accessing the DVR From a Remote Computer

In addition to the above, before you can access the DVR from a remote computer you would need to forward port 80 , 3357 and 3358 on the router that the DVR is attached to the IP address of the DVR. How you would do this depends on the brand and model number of your router. You can go to www.portforward.com to get instructions on how to forward ports on most popular routers. To access your router's program you would open an internet browser window and type the default gateway of the router into the address bar at the top of the window. Then follow the instructions for your router. To connect to the DVR from a remote computer you would then open the client program or an internet browser window, go to the settings tab and enter the internet IP of your router. To get the internet IP of your router go to www.myipaddress.com from a computer that is attached to the same router as the DVR. You would then access the DVR by opening a browser window and typing the IP address you get from this website into the browser window (Example:http://72.125.52.121). You will get a login screen where you will need to enter user name and password (admin and 88888888 by default). The first time you connect a webcam program will be downloaded to your system and you may get a message that an ActiveX control on the page may be unsafe but it is ok to click the Yes option to download the control and program. This will take you to the Internet Explorer Webcam screen. You would click on the Camera Icon to display cameras. Please see the included IE Explorer Manual on information how to use the program. We strongly recommend getting a static IP address so that you do not have to be concerned about the address you use to access the system changing and making it necessary for you to return to www.myipaddress.com to determine what the new address is. Another alternative could be to use a DNS service such as no-ip.com (www.no-ip.com) to change the contact dynamic IP address whenever it changes. If you are going to access the DVR remotely from the client program instead of an internet browser then follow the instructions in the client program after you forward the ports and get the router’s IP address.
