How to connect DVR via internet to watch CCTV cameras from a remote place

[Blue]

Interesting post...but I still cannot view my dvr remotely after doing everything described in this post ...My dvr local ip is 192.168.11.7, and I set it up to work on port 8080. When I type 192.168.11.7:8080, I can access the dvr on my local network. When I type my Ip address (obtained from whatinsmyip.com) and :8080 I cannot access the dvr. Also, I have set up port forwarding on my router and set up an account with dyndns.com, and I am not able to access my dvr using the url I have set up through them. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Good morning.

I am very close to getting my cameras to work remotely, but am missing one setting I feel.

I had a D-link DIR300 connected to my DVR and 3 camera's via a static IP all worked great.

I had to change the router to a ASUS WL-520GU, I set the local connection up no problem. I then turned my attention to setting up the remote connection for my 3 cameras. I have got as far as getting the camera's to show locally via 192.168.1.109 and in my router settings I can see two devices using the router (my computer and the DVR) all good so far.

I can't get it to work remotely though and feel I am one setting away from that. I have a static IP.

Settings on my DVR as follows:

Network Type: Static
DDNS Link: Off
Port: 80
IP Address: 192.168.1.109
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
DNS IP: 0.0.0.0

Do I have to change the IP address on my router (in Virtual Server Settings) to my static IP rather than 192.168.1.109 or do I need to change the IP Address on my DVR to my static IP address?

I can feel I'm soo close and any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

OK, Edren
That is what I have been looking for. The power went out and when I try to view, I get DVR not Found. I read what I could find about Comcast static IP. It told me that because the computer was using Vista, I had to jump through a bunch of hoops (hate VISTA) and release the IP and then renew it. When I did that, it actually 'automatically' changed the IP in the config setup on the DVR program. I changed it back to the original static IP that I was given by Comcast. When the power went out, was the Comcast static IP actually changed? How does that work? Can I change it by releasing and renewing again because I have no clue what it changed to. That computer was sitting beside the DVR. I still was unable to ever connect via the computer at home. I am now wondering if that is because I don't have Comcast at home and a firewall is blocking me?

any 1 know what is the port which intel network allow to use for cctv viewing form office?
