Connecting the DVR to the Internet via a router

Video surveillance is a good way to protect your property and even life. A reliable remote "video fighter" will be able to inform its owner in advance about the impending danger, as well as record all the events that occurred under the camera.

With the development of modern technology, you can even install video surveillance using the usual, without additional protection, the Internet and a standard commercial DVR.

Configure the DVR

The configuration process takes place in several stages.

Setting to work with a static IP address

You must configure the send video to a static IP address. This address is provided by an Internet company.

The standard address for interacting with the Internet has the following features.

  • It has an acceptable signal transfer rate.
  • Easily hides in inaccessible places for potential cable “pests”.

Important! Additionally, it is not necessary to acquire it or spend time searching for this address.

Simple enough select the "network" item in the registry menu, then the "get IP automatically" item.

After that, the line for entering information will be filled with the 10-digit code (address) itself. It remains only to save the settings and exit the menu.

Output of the finished image to the final monitor

Sometimes DVR can track the "electronic trace" where the signal is transmitted. This allows you to minimize the likelihood of interception of video streams to third parties. The probability of introducing a parallel Internet cable that duplicates the signal is reduced.

In the recorder settings menu you must specify the "personal data" of the computer. They can be read from the computer itself: In the "My Computer" icon, the hardware code of the computer is required. This will allow the DVR to synchronize with it using your standard, non-intercepted Internet service provider.

After that, all the data entered must be saved and reloaded by the recorder, if required by its operating system.

How to configure the router

Correct configuration of the router allows the DVR to work through remote access. Allows you to send commands remotely.

  • To configure it, you need to create your DDNS server. It is created in the settings menu of the router as a separate port - DDNS section.
  • Then you need to give it "remote access" rights. You must activate this item.
  • After that, through the computer of the observer, you can send encrypted commands to work with the router.

Important! You must specify the IP address of your Internet provider. DDNS server cannot read it automatically.

This precaution from the manufacturer saves from software hacking. It also does not allow fraudsters to track which server sends a signal by automatically replacing data.

After creating a separate DDNS server, you only need to synchronize with the DVR, just connect to the local network. Done!

Connection

Connect (the ability to watch what is happening through the security camera) to your computer happens as remote synchronization with a router.

You just need to go to your personal IP-address and read information from it. It looks as if the user just goes to a standard internet site. And from there it downloads (in real time) streaming information. The process resembles viewing clips from popular hosting sites.

Tip! You can install specialized software for video surveillance on your computer.

They will help expand the range of possibilities. For example, to improve the quality of the image, to offer a hot button to the police, to offer the ability to upload archives to cloud storage and others.

If the computer is used by a security guard to further increase his vigilance and general security, such programs can periodically fix / check his presence at the post. They will be able to send a request that he must personally accept by entering a confirmation code.
