- 6.141 Accessing the DVR over a network
- To access the DVR through a computer you need to make sure the default gateway on the DVR is the same IP address as your router, and the first three sets of numbers of the DVR IP address are the same as the first three sets of numbers of router’s address. Example: if your router’s default gateway is 192.168.1.1 then the default gateway setting in the DVR should be 192.168.1.1, and the first three sets of numbers on the DVR's IP address should be 192.168.1. The last set of numbers has to be different then those on any other devices attached to the router to avoid conflicts. The subnet on the DVR also needs to be the same as the router, example: if the subnet on the router is 255.255.255.0 the subnet on the DVR needs to be 255.255.255.0. To get the default gateway and subnet of the router, on a computer that is attached to the same router as the DVR, click on the start button, then click on run, then enter cmd into the box and click on OK. At the curser type ipconfig, the default gateway and subnet will be displayed.
- You can access the DVR through an Internet Explorer browser window, or through the included client software program.
- 6.142 Accessing the DVR from a remote computer
- To access the DVR from a remote computer, in addition to the above steps, you will also need to forward ports 80 and 8000 on the router the DVR is attached to, 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.
- You can access the DVR through an Internet Explorer browser window, or through the included client software program.
- To access the DVR through Internet Explorer: once you have setup the network settings on the DVR to match the settings of your router and forwarded the ports needed by the DVR, you need to modify your browser controls. You need to allow Pop-ups. To do so go to the Internet Explorer tool bar and select the "tools" option, then select the "Pop up Blocker" option and select "Turn Off Pop-up Blocker.” You will also need to enable Active X controls. To do so go to the Internet Explorer tool bar and select the "tools" option, then "Internet Options", then "Security", then click the "Custom Level" button, and make sure the Active X Controls and Plug Ins are set to prompt or enabled. To connect to the DVR from the remote computer you would then open an internet browser window 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 typing the IP address you got from www.myipaddress.com into the browser window (Example:http://70.69.120.123). You will get a login screen were you will need to enter your user name and password (admin and 12345 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 since you requested the program. This will take you to the Internet Explorer Webcam screen. You would click on the Camera Icon to display cameras. If you wish to access the DVR through the included client software follow the installation instructions on the included manual.
