  • Login
  • "Account" -> "My Service" -> "Add Host Services" -> "Add Dynamic DNS Host"
  • Enter and select hostname
  • Enter IP address of your computer
  • Click "Add host"
    In your DVR software:
    • Find DDNS network settings
    • Enable DDNS
    • Enter username, password and hostname from dyndns.org
    • Apply the settings

Then if your IP address changes, DVR software sends the data to dydns.org and updates it. This allows to access your computer from remote location by using not a weird IP address, but a user-friendly hostname.

p.s.Please note that routers can also be configures to work with DDNS (instead of configuring DVR software, you can configure your router).
I have followed your instruction here clearly and was able to create an account with dyndns.org. now my question is how to setup my dvr for a remote viewing? I am using ARGUS SSD series and I dont have an english instruction of this unit(korean made) and also there's no user name and password fields on the DDNS settings. pls help
