For the DVRs IP address you would enter the same first 3 sets of numbers as the gateway and select a
fourth set of numbers that is different then any other device attached to the same router. If the IP address
of your computer in the ipconfig (BLUE arrow in Picture 3) was a single or two digit number you should be
ok with any three digit number, if the computer IP address ends with a number in the 100s then you
should go with a 200 number (BLUE box in Picture 4).
PPPOE: If you are going to attach the DVR directly to a DSL or Cable modem instead of a router you will
need to select the PPPOE option in the NETWORK options. To do this go to the setting option in the Main
Menu and select the Network icon (Red square in Picture 1), this will display the NETWORK screen

Password you need to enter into the spaces in the PPPOE info box.

find out what the new IP address is. There are two solutions to this problem. One would be to get a static
IP address from your service provider so that you do not have to be concerned with the address

setup to accept account information from these two domain name services. To setup the DVR for access
through a dynamic domain name you go to the setting option in the Main Menu and select the Network
icon (Red square in Picture 1), this will display the NETWORK screen shown in Picture 7. Double click the
