10.6 What Type of Network Connection do you have?
Everfocus DVR’s can operate using three distinct types of networking connections.
1. Simple One to One Connection: A simple one to one connection is the most simple
network connection. Basically it is a connection between a Computer and Another
Computer or in this case a DVR using a cross-over cable.
2. Direct High Speed Modem Connection: A direct high speed modem connection is a
network connection from the modem directly to a computer or in this case the DVR.
3. Router or LAN Connection – A local area network connection either requires a router or
a pre-existing LAN connection. Typically this type of connection is the most commonly
used application. A router allows multiple computers and DVR’s to access each other as
well as the Internet. It assigns different internal IP addresses to the computers.
