*Note: Make sure before configuring network settings that you have an Ethernet cable connected from your DVR
to your router
3.5 Network Setup:
• DHCP: When first setting up for network access, check the “DHCP” box and “OK” then right click twice to
save. Go back into “Network setup” and unclick the “DHCP” so the DVR will not change it again
• ESee: if UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) is enabled in your router, you will see an ESee id number in which
you will use to log into the phone app E-See to remotely view from an iphone or Android
• IP address: This is the unique address assigned to your DVR and will be used locally (within your network)
in a web browser to view your DVR recording. This is also the address you will use if you need to port
forward (for assistance with port forwarding, you can go to portforward.com for instructions according to
your router model).
*Note: you will need to allow Active X to install on your browser to view remotely
• Subnet mask: Subnet for the network segment
• Gateway: This will be your router address
• MAC address: The physical address of the DVR
• Web port: This will need to be updated to the new port number if port forwarding is done through
another port besides 80 (ports 6000-9000 are set aside for surveillance systems and will work best for
port forwarding, we suggest 8082)
• Preferred DNS: This is the address for routing web access. Not to be confused with DDNS.
3.5.1 PPPOE setup:
Note: PPPoE is for use with dial-up and DSL connection
• PPPoE function: select “√” to enable and start using PPPoE dial-up
• PPPoE user: Input the user name of your ISP (Internet Service Provider) into edit box
• PPPoE password: input the password of your ISP into edit box
3.5.2 DDNS setup:
Note: This option is for remote DVR access using a customized URL that you choose. The two
main sites that are supported are noip.com and dyndns.com. Each one has their own
pros/cons so it is suggested to research both to find the one that you prefer
