Multiple DVRs one Router

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Ok, I tried searching the forum, but getting even more confused.

 

I am very new to this, and rather lost at the moment.

 

I had 4 x DVR's installed in my shop over the past few years. 3 x 16ch, 1 x 32ch, HikVision.

 

I contacted my technician, and asked if I could view them remote, and he advised yes. I installed a 4mb uncapped adsl line to do this.

I have a D-Link DSL-2750U router. I am having tons of headaches here. I get the one to work, then two others, then these three, then those two. Crazy, inconsistent results. My technician can't help either.

 

I want to use ivms-4500 on my Android device.

 

What are the ports I need to be forwarding to run 4 x DVR's? 80, 8000, and 554? Do I change them for each individual ip / dvr?

 

I had:

10.0.0.51

81

8001

554

 

10.0.0.52

82

8002

554

 

10.0.0.53

83

8003

554

 

10.0.0.54

84

8004

554

 

This is the first time since uTorrent I mess with ports... dangerous times.

See, I have had some successes. But not on all 4. I intend to use HiDDNS. I get all 4 added online in the hikonline portal. No joy viewing them though. Could be Web Components plug in that gives me probs..

Your question was about video access by android, is that correct? I asked about local access by android or another devices (browser or dedicated software) is it possible?

I have local access via the screen, plugged in? I use a mouse to interact. I have not tried accessing them on the local network via LAN. Do I download a viewer for my laptop?

 

Yes, in the end, I need to view this on my android via the internet.

I understand that preview by local network is ok?

Do you have public IP address on D-link router from your ISP?

Yes you can preview by internet browser.

A static public ip

 

You have to check it in router STATUS tab. Static IP is must not always be public IP.

Have you been redirected ports in Virtual Server tab? Can you show us it?

IP addressing on your devices is all time same like in your first post?

 

 

I had:

10.0.0.51

81

8001

554

 

10.0.0.52

8002

554

 

10.0.0.53

83

8003

I have not followed the virtual server route.. I used HiDDNS. Is this also using HiDDNS, or is this a different method?

Ok, so we will still be using HiDDNS?

DDNS is needed when your public IP address is dynamic (variable).

 

What do you need me to do next? Virtual servers?

Please confirmation. IP addressing is still the same on DVR-s like in first post?

Ok, so I will be using HiDDNS because my external IP would be dynamic.

 

3 of the 4 IP's are still the same. I changed

 

10.0.0.53

83

8003

554

 

to

10.0.0.55

85

8005

554

 

The other's are the same.

My biggest question is, because of 4 x DVR's, does each one need to use unique ports? For all 3 ports?

 

example...

 

80

8000

554

 

81

8001

555

 

82

8002

556

 

53

8003

557
