EverFocus EDSR 900F DVR User Manual


 
Currently, some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) may be blocking certain internet ports,
disabling remote access to your EDSR unit over the internet. Due to certain security risks,
your ISP may refuse to unblock these specific ports.
EverFocus now offers a firmware update specifically for the EDSR line of digital recorders which
directly addresses this issue: firmware version 1.09 allows you to change the default HTTP and Data
ports used by the DVR. This will provide a work around if your ISP refuses to unblock the ports on your
internet connection. This feature is found in the NETWORK SETTINGS menu of your EDSR unit. This
work-around allows you to customize your unit to connect using other various unblocked ports.
NOTE: For this work around, you will need to update to the latest firmware version,
which can be found at:
