DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Service)
A DDNS account allows you to set up a web site address that points back to your Local Network so you can access the DVR over
the Internet using a static or dynamic IP address. One problem with a dynamic address is your internet service provider (ISP)
changes this address from time to time. When it changes you need to re-configure your DVR with the new address. To do so you
will have to get the new IP address. Although you can go to www.myipaddress.com to get the new IP address, you still have to
make the changes manually.

So what are your choices? The first would be to obtain a
static IP address from your ISP. This can get expensive due
to setup fees and monthly rates. Fortunately there is an
easier option. That is to use a dynamic domain name service
(DDNS) to get a domain name that can be linked to your
dynamic IP address. While there are multiple DDNS services
available, we recommend www.dyndns.com as the DVR has
been already configured to accept account information from
this service.
