Hello folks,

I've been trying to configure remote access / ddns with no luck.

My local ISP uses http port 80 for remote access so I've changed my configuration to 8080.

Can check with www.canyouseeme.org/ that ports 8080 (http), 8000 (server) and 554 (rtsp) are opened. The Hik ddns configuration works so it redirects to my WAN ip address / port 8080. But still can't open anything on my browser.

If I change to my LAN ip address / port http://192.168.0.130:8080 it opens the Hikvision login page.

Any toughs on where should I look for?

Ok,

if I decide to go POE switch + PC NVR do I have to have a high end PC to monitor 8 5MB cameras?

Any good reading about the pros x cons of dedicater nvr vs pc nvr?

If I buy an 16 port POE switch to share with my home needs can I use it with the survilance and the home?

Do I still need a 8 channel nvr if I have the Poe switch!?

Hello,

I'd like you opinion on a NVR. Building a house and choosing the surveillance system.

Think will go on IP/POE so I've found Hikvison and Dahua NVRs. Will have aprox. 6˜8 cameras and would like all of them @ 5mb. I would like motion detection, alarm output, audio i/o and web interface. Maybe some interaction with Aduino home automation in future.

Ok, want all of this and a not so expensive NVR. I'll be traveling next month to US so I can buy it on Amazon/Ebay or buy it on Aliexpress and send it directly to my country.

Please give me your advise. Which one should I have less brand camera interoperability problems.

Br,

Fernando
