NETWORK SETUP
The Network Setup menu options need to be configured in order to access the DVR remotely
over a network or the internet. From the Network Setup menu, select the Network Type
(DHCP, PPPoE, or Static), Port and Web Port (80 and 9000 by default).
To configure the Network settings of the DVR, from the Main Menu, select the Network icon
and the Network Setup menu opens (IMAGE 12).
Type can be set to DHCP, PPPoE or Static. To have the router assign the IP address, use
DHCP. To select the address, use static. To attach directly to a modem instead of using a
router, use PPPoE. For more information, please see the remote access guide.
DHCP
When selecting DHCP as the Network type, the router automatically generates a DVR IP
address once the Network Setup menu is exited. Write down this IP address. Then switch the
Network Type to “Static” and re-enter the IP address to avoid any discrepancies that might
occur in the event the router auto generates a different IP address in the future.

PPPOE
When selecting PPPoE as the Network type, input the username and password provided by
your internet service provider. You would use this option if you are attaching the DVR directly
to DSL or cable modem instead of a router.
