Go to security, Port Forwarding

 

 

 

Select DVR IP (That you input into DVR), put in the starting and ending to 80, TCP protocol and click apply. Do this for 80, 8000, 10554, and  443. (or whatever you changed them to in ports of DVR. Not a bad Idea to change them. I.E. 8000 change to 8020, 80 to 85 or something like that).

 

 

After you forward ports go to www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ to check that they are open.

 

 

Also in DVR setup make sure you set the preffered DNS & alternate. To 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4

DONE!
