Error Possible Causes Solutions
• Cannot connect to the
NVR over the Internet.
• Ports not forwarded. • Port forward the HTTP port (default: 80)
and Client port (default: 35000).
• DDNS Setup not
completed.
• Register for a DDNS account. For de-
tails, see 20 Setting Up DDNS Service,
page 111.
• Ports are blocked by In-
ternet Service Provider
(ISP).
• Some ISP’s block port 80. Reassign the
HTTP port to anything above 1026. Re-
complete port forwarding using the
newly assigned port.

stalled in local network.

can.
• NVR internal IP ad-
dress has changed.

Address, page 33.
• Cannot connect to the
NVR using a smart-
phone or tablet.

• Turn off WiFi connection and attempt to
connect using 3G or mobile network.
