You will NOT be able to connect using the static IP address assigned to the dvr to view remotely. This IP address is only set up to have LAN communication. you can use that number to view your dvr on computers inside of your network only. to view remotely you have to use your network IP address that your router uses. this IP can be found by going to whatismyip.com. write down the IP address.
for remote view (outside of your network) type in
http://your IP:your port number assigned to your dvr - this port has to be forwarded or opened in your router
example
http://208.173.281.12:8000
your remote connection IP will NOT be a 192-196 number. these numbers are assigned inside of your network only
