Good morning, everyone. Mike, from CCTV Camera Pros here. Today, I'm going to set up the remote
access to my home security camera system so that when I'm away, I can view my security
cameras remotely from iPhone, Android, Mac and Windows, whatever platform I want to use.
There's a number of steps that you need to take to set up remote access.
First, you need to set up port forwarding on your router. Second, you need to ensure
that your DVR or NVR always gets assigned the same local IP address from your router.
Third, if your internet connection uses a dynamic IP address, which most of them do,
you'll want to set up the dynamic DNS service that's built into these Viewtron DVRs and NVRs
so that if your internet service provider changes your IP address, that doesn't mess
up the port forwarding rules and your remote access is not interrupted. So let's get started.
