Help! With a COP 15-ZT4 DVR, Can this be viewed via Android?

Recommended Posts

G' Evening All........

 

Hers one for the guys who are not affraid to remember how long they have been installing who still have a working memory, unlike mine

 

Problem:-

I have been asked by a friend of the family (Yes! one of those), if the Cop Security 15-ZT4 DVR can be viewed on their sons Samsung WiFi tablet while away on holiday?

Has it was myself who supplied them with this unit some years ago they thought i would be the best person to ask

I should maybe point out that i am a soon to be retired sparky with little experience of the finer points of CCTV but i have dabbled for one of a better word.

The DVR is set up and working fine on there pc but only on their LAN network using DVR Viewer software, all works great!

I have read Cop's manual for the ZT series DVR and it does explain how to set up a WAN connection, this i have attempted to do.

They are using a Netgear N3000 (WNR2000) on a Virgin Media connection. I belive i have opened port 5400 on the router correctly but cannot be sure.

If i input the Ip into "Can you see me. Org" and the port number it comes back as fine, port open.

When i try to connect via I.E all i get is a page that never times out and just keeps on looking, i think thats what its doing?

Im told that i need to subscribe to DYNS or something because using Virgin they have an Ip that is not static, this is now getting way beyond me

First i guess im asking is it possible to connect to this unit and view it remotely via either IE or Android, not sure if this unit is even capable of this given its age.

Second, if it is possible can anyone advise me what i need to do or where i am going wrong.

I have read through loads of pages here on the forum but nothing quite seems to fit my situation.

Any help would be very-very much appreciated.

Cheers
