Accessing the DVR from a computer attac hed to the sa me rout er: If you are only
going to access the DVR from a computer that is attached to the same router as the DVR
you only need to setup the information in the NETWO R K settings using either the DHCP
option or assigning a static IP follow ing the instructions below. Since you are just going
from one location to another on the same network port fo rwarding and knowing the public
IP address are not necessary. You would just access the DVR by entering the IP address of
the DVR from the NETWORK setup into the Internet Explorer browser window. After you
setup the NETWORK settings using DHCP or Static IP instructions skip down to the section:
To access the DVR through Internet Explorer.
There are 4 ways you can setup the DVR to be accessed remotely; DHCP, Static IP, PPPOE,
and DDNS.
DHCP: If your router is setup fo r DHCP, and most of them are by default, you can have the
router assign an IP address to the DVR. To do this you push the MENU key on the DVR to
get to the system menu (Pic 1), then use the Direction Keys on the DVR to select the
NETWORK option and push t he ENTER key to display the NETWORK screen shown in Pic 2.
Put a checkmark in the DHCP option box (RED box in Pic 2) and then select the OK button,
then restart the DVR so the router can find it and assign it an IP address. To find out what
IP address the router has assigned to the DVR push the INFO button on the front of the
DVR. This is the IP address you will forward port 80 to on t he router so you can access t he
DVR from remote computers. Once the router has assigned an address through DHCP ignore
the default IP address, Subnet, and G ateway information that is displayed in the main
network window.
Static IP: You will need to setup the network settings on the DVR to match the settings o f
the router that you attach the DVR to. To get the router settings you would go to the run
option on a computer attached to the same router as the DVR and type cmd and hit OK to
bring up a command prompt (Pic 3), then type ipconfig at the prompt (RED arrow on Pic 3)
to access the router settings. Write down the gateway and subnet mask numbers (GREEN
arrows on (Pic 3) so you can copy them into the network settings on the DVR (GREEN boxes
on Pic 4). Push the MENU key on the DVR to get to the system menu (Pic 1), then use the
Direction Keys on the DVR to select the NETWORK option and push the ENTER key to
display the NETWORK screen shown in Pic 4.

For the DVRs IP address you would enter the same first 3 sets of numbers as the gateway
and select a fourth set of numbers that is diffe rent than any other device attached to the
same router. If the IP address of your computer in the ipconfig (BLUE arrow in Pic 3) was a
single or two digit number you should be ok with any three digit number, if the computer IP
address ends with a numb er in the 100s then you should go with a 200 number (BLU E b ox
in Pic 4).
PPPOE: If you are going to attach the DVR directly to a DSL or Cable modem instead of a
router you will need to select the PPPOE option in the NETWORK options. To do this you
push the MENU key on the DVR to get to the system menu (Pic 1 ) , then use the Directio n
Keys on the DVR to select the NETWORK option and push the ENTER key to display the
NETWORK screen shown in P ic 2 . Put a checkmark in the PPPOE option box (GREEN box in
Pic 2) and then select the OK button. You will need to conta ct your internet service provider
to get the User name and Password you need to enter into the spaces under the PPPOE
check box.
DDNS:
You can access the DVR through a static or dynamic IP address; however a dynamic
address can change from time to time. How often depends on your service provider. When it
changes you need to go to a website such as www.myipaddress.com from a computer attached
to the same router as the DVR to find out what the new IP address is. There are two solutions
to this problem. One would be to get a static IP address from your service provider so that you
do not have to be concerned with the address changing. Another solution would to use a
dynamic domain name service to get a domain name that can be linked to your dynamic IP
address. We suggest
myq-see.com or www.dyndns.com since the DVR is setup to accept
account information from these two domain name services. To access the DVR through a
dynamic domain name you push the MENU key on the DVR to get to the system menu (Pic 1),
then use the Direction Keys on the DVR to select the NETWORK option and push the ENTER key
to display the NETWORK screen shown in Pic 2. Select the DDNS button (PURPLE box in Pic 2)
and then hit the ENTER key. This will bring up a screen (Pic5) where you can enter the domain
name you registered with the domain name service and the user name and password that they
assigned you. You also need to enter this information into the appropriate section on your
router. You will then be able to access the DVR remotely by entering the domain name into a
browser window on a remote computer.
Note: You can get more information on setting up a myq-see account in the attached quick
start guide.
