if you have the port on your dvr set to 80. try changing it to 8080 or 5550. as some isp now block port 80.

Sorry for all the basic question.

 

Can you ping your IP address successfully? Is your DSL line static or dynamic? If dynamic, did you set up a DNS client name with Geovision's DDNS service or one with DynDNS? Is the client updater running and updating? Can you access the Internet from the DVR?

 

tried that - i cant even log into the router? it is a linksys

 

I assume you mean you can't access the router remotely but can locally. In the router, are all the ports forwarded to the DVR's static IP address? In the Security tab, is "Block Anonymous Internet Requests" unchecked? Is the router successfully connected to your ISP (check the status tab)?
