DVR Web viewer OK but Iphone cannot connect

Recommended Posts

Hi , Having a IDVR that has a static IP and port 8080 open.

 

I can log in with a PC that is not part of the local network but I cannot get into it with Iphone App with the same settings.

 

A strange think is i was able to get into with another Iphone but I tried on a few more without success.

 

Any idea ? Do I have to open another port for Iphone ?

 

Why works on one and not on the other one ?

 

 

 

Thanks for your help !

First of all, please give the brand and model number of your DVR.

 

Second, most of the time you have to use HTTP port to acces your DVR from your web browser, so internal_IP:HTTP_port or when you forwarded the ports in your router: External_IP:HTTP_port

 

To view your cameras on a mobile application, you will need the 'remote' port or the 'mobile' port. What you could do is using IP cam viewer (pro) from the Apple store on your iphone to scan your network to look which DVR is similar to yours. Try first the HTTP port, then mobile/remote port as specified in the network settings.
