Port Forwarding Remote Access Setup
Port Forwarding is an alternative method to setting up remote access for your NVR. This method should
only be used if the UPnP/DDNS Remote Access method did not work.
Below is a step-by-step walkthrough that details how to setup the for Remote Web Access using UPnP:
1. Login to your NVR, open the main menu then go to Management -> Network.
2. Open the TCP/IP settings screen.
3. By default, the NVR has the mode set to Static. Click the radio button next to DHCP to change this to
DHCP. The IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, Preferred DNS, and Alternate DNS should all
change to 0s.
4. Click Save to save these settings. This should now open the main menu.
5. From the main menu, go to Management -> Network.
6. On the TCP/IP settings screen, the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, Preferred DNS, and
Alternate DNS should all be populated.
7. Click the radio button next to Static, to change the mode to Static.
8. Write down the IP Address that is currently in the IP address field.
9. Click the Save button.
10. Using the left-hand menu, go to the Connection menu, and write down the TCP, UDP, and HTTP port
number. It is recommended to ensure that these port numbers are at least 5 digits long to prevent any
port conflicts. If need be, change each of these port numbers to a 5-digit number that is less than 65535,
note the numbers down, and click save before proceeding to the next step.
11. Go to http://www.canyouseeme.org/ and check to ensure each of the port numbers specified in step 10
are open.
12. Write down the manufacturer name, brand, and model name for the router that the NVR is connected
to, and then proceed to portforward.com on your web browser.
13. Open the port forwarding guide section on the left-hand side menu.
14. Find the router brand name in the list and click it.
15. Find the router model number and click it.
16. Click the Default Guide link near the middle of the page.
17. This guide will help you take the step necessary to port forward on the router. Follow these steps, and
then return to the NVR.
18. Login to your NVR, open the main menu then go to Settings -> Network.
19. Click the DDNS menu item on the left-hand menu, click the enable checkbox, and then click the Apply
button on the bottom right.
20. Write down the entire Domain Name field, including the white text that says.quickddns.com
21. Open a web browser and enter in the DDNS domain name address from step 20, enter in a colon, then
type the HTTP port number from step 10 on to the end.
a. For example, if the DDNS domain name is http://abc123456789.quickddns.com and your HTTP Port is
33333, the URL would be http://abc123456789.quickddns.com:33333
22. The browser may prompt you to install a plugin. Click install to download the plugin, and then click on
the plugin installation file to install the plugin.
