Appendix 1 Setting up Internet Connections for Remote
Access
This section will explain the ways to connect your DVR to the internet using static and
dynamic IP addresses. To connect to the internet, you will need to use a modem and a router.
As a network device, your DVR should have its own address called an Internet Protocol (IP)
address. This address can be used by other network devices (ie. computers) to access the DVR
to remotely monitor the CCTV cameras and change settings. You can get a static IP address
from your internet service provider – this way you will always have the same address at all
times, though this method is rather expensive. If you have a static IP, enter your static IP in the
DVR settings and the router will connect your DVR to the internet.
You may alternatively choose to use dynamic IP, which means that the IP address of your DVR
may frequently change, but it will still be possible to find your DVR from remote computers,
by using DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) which dynamically assigns IP addresses to
the DVR. This functionality allows the DVR to automatically update its IP address to the
DDNS Server each time its Dynamic IP address changes. Your DVR is equipped with the
DDNS functionality and has a list of related domain names through which you can acquire an
IP address. (See Section 5.5.2 for details.)
Setup an account with a DDNS service provider and with the account information available,
login to the router and go to the DDNS page. Select the address of your service provider and
type in the account password. After saving, the router will send IP updates to your DDNS
account and the connection will always be forwarded to you current IP.
