Eyemax 9000 DVR

Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone,

Im not sure if im in right place to get advice setting up eyemax dvr to be able to view it over the internet. i been working on this unit for 3days with no success. i've tried contacting eyemax but they never got back to me. they really have a very Sh*ty tech support. anyways hopefully someone will be able to help me out. here's my situation. im helping a friend to get his dvr setup so he can view it online. his dvr is been working for about 6yrs. & now he decided to connect to network. he have dsl modem with Static IP. Linksys router is connected to the modem. then to a switch(HUB) to support 4 computer. then from that HUB another switch(HUB) connected to it to support 1 computer & the DVR. I already set the fort forwarding on the router w/c is 9091-9112 & 80 to dvr IP (192.168.1.xxx). now from Eyemax dvr i execute client software gave a server name & put in the public ip (69.34.97.xxx) then save. to test it i went to another computer same LAN network on DVR & type the IP addr of DVR to my browser it will show the login but I get a message about activeX and wont let me login. so i tried to use WAN connection & nothing either. im sure my setting is all wrong so, if someone could pls help me out or point me to the right direction i would really appreciate it.

 

thanks alot guys

I guessing you are using IE8 as the browser? if so then you will goto internet options, security, custom level, then ENABLE "download unsigned ActiveX control".

 

I understand you frustration with eyemax tech support. I have the same experience with them

if your system is over 6 years old i should think you will need to give it an update firmware first i dont think it will be supported at the moment

"themerchant", thanks for your advised! by Enabling "download insigned ActiveX control" I could now see it inside LAN network. but still having problem accessing from WAN. port 80 on the router was forwaded to DVR local IP. also if i set the router to Static IP instead of auto DCHP & type in the IP, Subnet, Gateway & DNS that I got from ISP (have static ip from ISP) & save the setting. none of the computer could get online. anymore suggestion?

 

to "tomcctv" thanks for your advised. but, how do i ugrade the firmware? I've tried using latest software also, but no go!

 

thanks,

zee

i wanted to say thank you to everyone on this forum & people that gave me some advised. i just wanna let you guys know that i finally got it to work! it was actually a simple fixed. it was the modem that i needed to bridge since i have Static IP. & disable firewall on the router. now i can view it through LAN & WAN w/ no problem.

 

thanks again,

Zee
