Im using a cop security dvr which is linked to all my tvs, and im attempting to access it via my computer. the company which installed the system did a half ass job, so im trying to finish it. its linked to my router so now im trying to access it through netviewer on my computer, its plugged into the LAN port on the dvr. Im not interested in accessing it via the internet, just on my computer but the message i keep getting in 'socket connect fail' etc etc.

 

AV PORT: 5000

COMMAND PORT: 5001

 

AVI CODEC: MICROSOFT VIDEO 1

VIDEO TYPE: NTSC OR PAL

can you ping the device.

 

Some of these devices you can access through internet explorer.

 

ie h**p://192.168.0.200

 

You could try that.

 

Also is the device and your router on the same IP range. most of these dvr's don't use DHCP so you manually have to assign an IP to the DVR.

 

just a thought, good luck

Are you using a router or going directly to the computer?

If you are using a router be sure to forward the port & ip address.

If you are going directly into the computer be sure to use a crossover cable.

you are getting lan and wans mixed up, or some of the info here is. if it is all on the router side, as in inside your home or office, it is on the lan, and should have an ip address that is like 192.168.x.x or 10.0.x.x.

 

i am not familiar w/ your particular device, but many dvrs i have seen let you put in the info for it to be a static ip, just put it up high so the dhcp server in your router doesn't try to give out its ip address. there should be a networking area in the menus.

 

being on the lan side, there would be no reason to forward ports, that would be only if you were going to be viewing the data from the wan (internet) side from outside your location.

 

what router do you have?

Hi

Don't know if you ever got sorted but i have the same problem

 

I have a BT Internet router with an ethernet switch which is working ok for my printer and lighting up properly for my DVR

 

On the cop DVR menu it has an IP of 192.168.01.09 8000

 

when i do the request ip it comes up with 192.168.01.75

none of these work

 

 

what is the password it is looking for

 

is it the DVR password default admin & 1

 

or is it the network password?

 

Tried allsorts but cannot connect
