Port Forwarding For CCTV DVR Access?
Hi hope somebody can help me i have a CCTV DVR set up with some cameras on it. I have that networked into my home network via a Cat5 cable to my BT Home Hub. I can access the cameras by typing the ip address (192.168.1.72) into the URL of any computer on the network. I want to be able to access the cameras over the internet so when im not at home. I believe this involves port forwarding, I have found the section in the Bt Home Hub settings i believe the HTTP port on the CCTV DVR is currently 00080. Please can you tell me how i set this up and what i would type into the URL to access these cameras over the internet. Thanks A Lot, Mitch

A couple of other things to check would be if you have a STATIC IP from your provider, if yes no worries, if not you will probably need to set up with a dynamic dns service (google free ddns).
Also, I usually change the HTTP port on DVRs that I set up to something other than port 80, ie make it 81 or 100. The reason I do this is that 80 is the standard HTTP port and I don't want to risk messing anything up if I have anything else incoming.
You will need to add " : " to the end of the address you use to access the DVR, ie 192.168.1.72:81 or 65.179.115.98:81
