FVS318N Help!

Assuming that you are using NAT to share a single WAN ip between several devices, what you need to do is not open port 80, but forward it to the DVR's internal ip address.

First - is the DVR configured for a static ip address? If it is, make sure that you have a default gateway entry configured. If it's not, make sure you are using a DHCP reservation.

Second - make sure the DVR is accessible at the local LAN ip address.

Now to forward the port - select the security/firewall tab of the FVS318, and add an inbound service - select http, allow always and enter the address of the DVR and click apply.

Finally - test from OUTSIDE your network - make sure you know the correct public ip address to use - get it from the status page of the FVS318 - and make sure it is a public address, because if your modem is a modem/router and the FVS has a private address that yill cause you problems.

Make sure your ISP is not blocking 80 assuming you were able to setup forwarding but meant to say it is not going though the router .

Thanks a lot for the help. I'm almost there, everything works fine in the same network, just need to set up the remote access.
