assign the static IP address in your router as well.

• Bandwidth: Select the bandwidth the DVR can consume. Set a lower bandwidth if you are on

a network with heavy traffic. For smoother playback, select a higher bandwidth.

• Auto Port Forwarding: Select Enable or Disable to turn auto port forwarding on or off. Note

that you must restart the DVR locally before changes take effect.

change the Media, Web, or Mobile port, you must change the ports locally on the

DVR for changes to take effect.

About Static IPs

A static IP is useful if you wish to lock the local IP address of the DVR. This

is used when accessing the DVR over a local area network (LAN), and

prevents the DHCP server from assigning a random IP address for the

DVR. You must set the static IP address within your router before the

changes take effect.
