i didnt realize the phone uses a specific port i thought that having a media and web port forwarded for the dvr was all that was required any idea what the required port for iphone would be? android port would be good too if you know it because it seems that safari browser blocks any ports that arent already in use or blocked by isp

 

ill check into it thanks for the reply

Here's the mystery solved. I can't believe its not in the manual.

 

From the settings in your Bunker Hill DVR, go to Devices and find Mobile. Either type in a Port there or use the default. That's the one you need to use in your Port Forward.

 

The Meye app worked great for Android. I haven't tried it on the iPhone yet.

if you want to set up to see over the internet you need to port forward two different ports the ports are 8080 or 80 this is the first one that needs to be forwarded tcp and udp the next port you need to forward is 9000 tcp and udp if you don't know how to forward your port you need to access your router and go into port forward in your router. lots of online help for your router my router is century link actiontec c1000a go into advance setting go down page look for port forward and inter the information than you can see it over the lan to see it from away from your lan you need to know your router ip address go to canyouseeme.org to get this information that is the address you input to see it away from home now if you want to see it on an android phone you need to forward one more port but you need to go in the menu on dvr and go to devices and mobile than you need to change your login name password and you can change the port you need this port forwarded I could not see the default port after I forwarded it so I change it than I could see it that is the port you need to use in the port on the app when setting up the camera than you can see it on your android phone don't pay for the instructions it just takes a little time to check your ports and that is it I will say it is not hard but it is frustrating

Heya,

 

Have any of you happened to setup this particular security system with IPv6? I can't seem to get it to connect externally. My goal is to be able to view the feeds from anywhere on my mobile device which is android.

 

Thanks
