Has the DVR got the correct default gateway address?

Might be handy if you paste the entire IP configuration.

ip address: 192.168.1.10
subnet mask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
primary dns 192.168.1.1
secondary dns 8.8.8.8
media port 34567
http port 88

DHCP is not enabled.

I assume that your computer is using the same default gateway IP?

Not sure of that. Assume so.

Looking at the router it says:

LAN - LAN IP 192.168.1.1

Subnet mask 255.255.255.0

Is that what you meant?

In reply to a post by Flint:

I looked at the DVR network setup and it was using HTTP port 80. I read somewhere that this was not ideal and followed thier example and changed it to 88. Can't say it has made any difference.

I'd say that was a mistake. You should have got the thing working over the network using the default configuration before changing anything - now you don't know if that change has stopped it working or not.

Can you open Internet Explorer and browse to http://192.168.1.10:88 please?

Does that elicit any response?

Yes, it logs on ok. Good enough to get a cctv picture but not the whole GUI etc.

So it's working?

I suspect the xmeye app is being blocked by the firewall on the router, or it's unaware of the change in port.

Seems you are able to access the web panel of the DVR based on other posts now.

Something still not right. If I enter the IP addresss I can see the CCTV picture but not the multiple displays and control panel that I should.

In the Myeye the first screen you get after logging in is one where 'your devices' are listed. (or not). It says:

Click "My Devices" to view config and playback,
It will download the component automatically to your computer. Please wait a moment as it will take several minitues on your first visiting time!

Well, here's the thing; I can wait ages and nothing happens. If I enter the device serial number manually it appears in the list but after thinking about it for a a minute responds by putting a red cross thrugh the icon and then stating:

Your device is offline!
� Please try the following operation:
� Check the device's Internet is connected?
� Try to reboot the Internet Router.
� Pull out the network cable of device, and then reinsert it back in.
� Check the device's power supply is connected.
� Check the LED is green.
� If you cannot access the device, please update the firmware.


I have tried all the suggestions to no avail.

I do know that the serial number is coirrect as I have entered it about 20 times from various screenshots. I even got someone else to do it.

You prob need to access it in internet explorer and install the active X gubbins that comes with it.

Even with the latest Windows and IE it will probably still work, but you'll need to add the site to trusted sites in IE and lower security settings for the trusted zone so that unsigned active X can install.
