Service, or DDNS. Not to be confused with DNS in the previous section, DDNS allows you to
enter a conventional web address when remotely logging into your DVR from outside of your
network. It also allows you to avoid having to repeat steps in Obtain an IP Address when/
if your ISP reassigns IP addresses. Q-See offers DDNS service for free at www.MyQ-See.com
and your DVR is configured accept account information from that site.

Window in your DVR and click on the
DDNS Settings button to open the
DDNS Setup window.

password you used to create your

properly forwarded. The presence of multiple routers or the routers not featuring UPnP or

Routers to begin the download.
