If you are only going to access the DVR from a computer that is attached to the same router
as the DVR you only need to setup the information in the NETWORK settings using either
the DHCP option or assigning a static IP following the instructions below. Since you are just
going from one location to another on the same network, port forwarding and knowing the
public IP address are not necessary. You will just access the DVR by entering the IP address
of the DVR from the NETWORK setup into the Internet Explorer browser window. After you
setup the NETWORK settings using DHCP or Static IP instructions skip down to the section
Accessing the DVR through Internet Explorer.
The Network Settings menu is reached from the Advanced Settings menu - which is
found in the Main Menu.

7.1 NETWORK SETUP
There are five ways you can setup the DVR to be accessed remotely; DHCP, UPnP, Static IP,
PPPOE, and DDNS. The Network Setup menu is accessed through the Main Menu.
DHCP
Select DHCP from the drop down box and
then select the Apply button so the router
can find it and assign it an IP address. After
the router has assigned the DVR an IP
address it is a good idea to write down this
address and then select Static from the drop
down box and enter this address as a static
address so it will not change if you shutdown
DVR or the router. This is the IP address you
will forward port 80 to on the router so you
can access the DVR from remote computers.
