Viewing Your DVR From Outside of Your Network
Now that you have successfully viewed your DVR and cameras from a computer connected to the same router, it is
time to set up your router to view the DVR while at a remote location. This process is called PORT FORWARDING and
you can find easy-to-follow video tutorials and instructions on how to complete the required steps at:

Note: Port forwarding is required if you want to view the DVR from a computer that is not connected to the
same router.
