- I'd put the camera in the DMZ of the XR500 and enable access from the WAN and that should do it.
Hi Thanks for message
Apologies, I meant select 4G from Mobile device (iphone)
I can now see device after some settings yesterday evening, on port 8080 and creating a Bridge to Modem but it was by luck I connected with my Fixed IP address from BTopenworld (I assume it has used exisiting open ports from BT Modem)
It felt it wasnt correct and noticed upon getting to office whwere we have a Laptop to remotely view constantly, could not connect through usual Firefox or IE, however upon downloading Hikvisions software it connected
I do not think I have connected properly as I have done before in terms of simple BT BusinessHub 6 port forwarding etc.
At this point I cannot remember as to exactly what I had done so need to confirm looking later (tried like 20-30 different ways as "lost my Way")
I will update once I know exactly what id done (it does work perfect and fast) I did fix internal port as static
I'd put the camera in the DMZ of the XR500 and enable access from the WAN and that should do it.
