For example, if the DVR IP Address is 192.168.0.150, and the Webserver Port is set to
2005, use the following address on the Internet Explorer browser to access the DVR: z http://192.168.0.150:2005

SECTION 5
You will need to enable port forwarding on your Router to allow for external communications with your DVR. The following ports will need to be forwarded to remotely connect to your DVR:
• DVR PORT: 2000 (or any other port you selected to use during setup)
• WEBSERVER PORT: 80 (or any other port you selected to use during setup)
Computers, DVRs, and other devices inside your network can only communicate directly with each other within the internal network. Computers and systems outside your network cannot directly communicate with these devices. When a system on the internal network needs to send or receive information from a system outside the network (i.e. from the Internet), the information is sent to the Router.

Internet Internal Network
When a computer on the Internet needs to send data to your internal network, it sends this data to the external IP address of the Router. The Router then needs to decide where this data is to be sent to. This is where setting up Port Forwarding becomes important.
Port Forwarding tells the router which device on the internal network to send the data to. When you set up port forwarding on your Router, it takes the data from the external IP address:port number and sends that data to an internal IP address:port number (i.e
Router External IP
216.13.154.34:2000 to DVR Internal IP 192.168.0.3:2000
).

Router Configuration Guide
