thanks very much

You get two different IP addresses because your router has it's own broadcasting IP to be able to log into your entire network, your ip when you do ipconfig is your computers personal ip.
Set up a static ip - to have it static the last octet has to be under 100
set up a port number most defaults are 80, 8080, 7000 etc
log into your router do port forwarding on the corresponding port number for your DVR.
go to whatismyip.com
write down this ip
type in
http://the ip you got from whatismyip.com
ort number
EXAMPLE:
http://208.173.132.83:7000
This will allow you to remote view your DVR through your network ip
This is a WAN IP
the 192-196 ip you get from ipconfig is a lan ip and only used within your network, you will NOT be able to connect to this port through theat IP address. You have to use the IP off of whatismyip.com
