Remote connection via WAN to Nighthawk MR2100 M2 and DVR system
Hi there, I’m pretty novice with my new mobile router and I have a connection query. I have a remote farm at which I have four cameras set up on a DVR system standard H.264 system. I purchas...
Thanks for your response, unfortunately these DVR systems are generic and unbranded. H.264 is the only P/N present which I think only dictates that it’s a 4-port system. The DVR box is very standard and has a reasonable GUI interface where IP settings can be committed etc with screen, K&M. I think I can figure the settings for the DVR to talk to the Nighthawk. My question is how I connect to my Nighthawk remotely if it is not on the same local network? I’m wondering if I should be using a second more configurable router to establish a WAN connection or if I can do it with the Nighthawk?
With conventional routers you have the option to use "Anywhere Access" or ReadyCLOUD for various things. Unfortunately, "Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems" are different animals.
Questions arise here regularly as to how you can use one of these as the "front end" of a conventional router. I don't recall seeing a satisfactory resolution to that one.
