    i took a picture of it...

     

    from that picture you will see the plug i got from lowes....

     

    also, should i use a 3 prong and attach the ground cable to it?

     

     

    This plug is for suppling the power supply with power from a regular 110/120V AC outlet.

     

    Yes you should add a ground from the power outlet to the power supply.

    If that's the case I don't see any problem.

     

    AC wiring is non polarity sensitive.

     

    Check the cameras manual and make sure the camera auto negotiates between AD/DC Voltage, either way it should show you the wiring scheme.

     

    Most Bullet camera's are DC, the manual maybe for various models, make sure the specs apply to your model.

    I've never used one of these before, but most DVR setup is typical.

     

    If you are trying to remote access with the client software you need to open more ports than just port 80.

     

    I'm not sure what ports this unit use, but if can post the manual or PM me I'll be ,re than happy to help.

     

    Make sure and give the unit a static IP address for your local network, then port forward to that IP address, you will be able to remote access the DVR on the local network without forwarding any ports.

    Since you have the ability to cable with no issues, I would install 1 Siamese and 1 or 2 Cat 6's for each location you intend to install a camera.

     

    I had to cable my home externally using conduit.

     

    Siamese Cable in case the budget can't fit IP cam's now or just the fact that there isn't any IP cam's decent enough for exterior applications to install on this house.

     

    In the future when the technology advances you will hopefully be prepared.

     

    Right now I will just go with surface dome's matched to your environment, which will look really nice.

     

    Tried to post some pics but got some sort of ftp error.

    No Light.

    Go into network settings for the dvr and assign it a static IP address.

     

    Then forward the ports for that address.

     

     

    Start

    Control Panel

    Network Connection

    Right Click Local area connection and select properties

    Double click on Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)

    Select Use the Following IP address

    Input the IP address you want to use

    Subnet would be 255.255.255.0

    Gateway will be the routers IP address

    Select use the following DNS Server address

    Input the same IP address as the gateway for the Preffered DNS Server

    No need for Alternate DNS Server

    Dude just the fact that you get routed to the router setup page means your ports are not forwarded properly.

     

    Try what I suggested, and use your public IP not your dyndns account with the client first.

     

    Once that work change your dyndns to a port redirect for the port of the server and you will be good to go.

     

    I've done many of these with similar scenarios, and now I just set them up the way I mentioned, no problem.

     

    If you want I can take a look at your router or even try to connect to your sever for testing.

     

    Even though it appears that you're looking for assistance from someone else other than me.

    Set the port on the server to 9000.

     

    Then do the port forward for the server ip in the router.

     

    This looks like a simple system, you should be fine.

     

    Always try connecting to dvr with the client software before attempting to IE or any web browser.

     

    The client software and the browser remote connection authenticates differently.

     

     

    USE PORT RANGE FORWARDING NOT SINGLE PORT FORWARDING.

    USE THE SAME PORT AS THE START AND END.[/u][/b]
