Use the prior step to assign an IP address. For example, if you got the IP address from
the computer of 192.168.002.101. Assign the DVR’s IP address as 192.168.002.050.
Now Copy the subnet mask and default gateway information you got from the prior
step off the computer to the DVR.
Note: Make sure the modem is in bridge mode. If your Internet Service Provider is
BellSouth you will have a modem/router. BellSouth provides a Westell modem that
includes a built-in router. You will need to disable the router functionality.
The next step is to open ports within your router. Open virtual ports in the router (Log into
the router using a PC)
o EDR Ports to open: 80, 1600, 37260, 37261, 37262, 37263
Note: If your Internet service provider blocks port 80 you may use a different port
to access the DVR through the DVR’s Network Menu Setup.
Note: If you wish to have multiple users log into the DVR please open a range for the
control and data ports on your router. For example if you would only like 4 clients to
connect to the DVR open 1600 and 37260 ~ 37263
If you have a Dynamic IP address and have open the ports simply go to Chapter 9 to
Configure DDNS.
Once you have reached this point and you have restarted the digital recorder.
To access the DVR from a computer simply open Internet Explorer and in the address bar
type:
http:// and the IP address of your internet service provider.
Note: If your Internet service provider blocks port 80 you may use a different port
to access the DVR through the DVR’s Network Menu Setup.
