iVMS-4500 only working locally via wifi?

[devs]

Hi guys, I’ve been wrestling to setup a couple of hikvision cameras to a ds-7604ni NVR and have ‘almost’ got them working by updating the NVRs firmware. Things are fine locally and working when connected to wifi. However when out and using iVMS-4500 I can not view? The alert notifications are coming though but no video feed.

Can anyone please suggest what I should try?

Many thanks,

Devs.

Have you used the internal ip address of the Nvr? If so this will not work once you are not connected to your local network i.e wifi.

You need to configure iWMS with the IP address pointing towards your router from 'outside', eg the ip address your router has been assigned from your ISP.

You as well need to configure your router with port forwarding to your NVR.

If you do not have a fix IP address then you should setup DDNS as well.

I found the TUTORIAL MEGATHRED very useful when setting up my system the first time.
