To connect to the DVR from the remote computer you would then open an Internet Explorer browser
window and enter the internet IP of your router that you got by going to www.myipaddress.com (you have
to do this from a PC that connect to same Router as your DVR).
Notice: If you cannot use HTTP port 80 or 6036 because the port is being used by another program, or it is being
blocked by your service provider, you can use another port in the same range. If you do so then you need to
forward the IP address of the router to the other port, change the port in the DVR NETWORK settings, and you
need to add the port number after the IP address. For example, if you set the HTTP port as 82, you need to enter
the IP address as 192.168.0.25:82. After you have forwarded the ports you can verify that the ports are open by
going to canyouseeme.org from a computer that is attached to the same router as the DVR.
Once you able to login, you will get the login screen, by default the login and password are admin and
123456 .
Notice: If you still have problems connecting remotely: Anti-virus programs could also block the ActiveX
control, if you still have a problem try closing them. Other plug-ins could also block it. Close firewalls
in Windows and in the router if applicable. If you run Windows Vista or Windows 7, you will need to
disable User Account (UAC).Follow this link for instructions:

If you have a router plugged into another router, for example, if you have the DVR attached
to a router which is attached to DSL or Cable router, you may need to forward port 80 and
6036 (or whatever ports you are using) on the DSL or Cable router to the IP address of the
router that the DVR is attached to, so that router can then forward the port to the DVR.
Please refer to the PORT FORWARDING section above on how to get instructions on how to
forward the port on the other router.
NOTICE: For instructions on how to use the remote viewing software please refer to the
