    Hi Norwood Barnhouse, Have you heard of ip port forwarding through routers ?
    I suspect your issue may be cause by a lack of port forwarding.
    Outside internet IP address >>> port forward >>> inside ip address of camera.
    Can you please add details in the comment box?

    Thank you for responding. The system I am trying to setup is in a rural vacation home, and I have had to leave it for now. I will return in a month or so and begin trouble shooting then, hopefully with your help. Thanks again until then.

    what is the make and model number of router or if no router the modem device used for internet connection.
    you need to most likely log into the router.
    go to dos prompt on a computer and type in ipconfig/all press enter key
    note the default gateway ip address
    put this into internet browser URL address
    and it should try to log in to the router
    Hopefully password is on router or is the default password for this make and model number.

Can my Lorax mc2700 be viewed from my phone

The Lorax MC2700 is a portable radio that does not have Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity. As a result, it cannot be viewed or controlled from a phone or other device. It can only be controlled using its physical controls

Hi, I have security cameras at home I just want to know how to apply for rooter so that I can view them even if iam away.

You already have an internet connection. More than likely you have a modem with a built in 4 port router. Plug a Network cable into the back of the router and also into the Security Camera DVR. Go to the settings in the Security DVR and choose network. Log into the modem/router and set up a port forward to the ip address you found in the security DVR network section. Download the Security Camera App from your telephone hardware provider. Load your remote ip addess (found by searching from your computer attached to your network at home using whatismyip4.host) port, user name and password into the app and you should be online to your cameras on your phone.

Lorex troubleshooting

The most common reason for loss of camera remote video is an intermittent cable connection between camera and DVR. Try monitoring with a VGA monitor, or TV with analog VGA input also to see if that is the case. Gently move the cables around that run from the cameras to the DVR while observing the multiple cameras showing on the monitor. Some remote viewing software has trouble restoring camera assignments after brief loss of camera signal.

I have a sentient cctv dvr from Maplin I can view it on my phone at home which is fine I wanted to know if I can view camera footage when I'm not at home etc. at work

Yes you can definitely view your CCTV footage on your mobile phone at your work via internet. Sentient CCTV DVR basically is a night vision camera. You must know the IP of the camera and IP Video server. Connecting your phone to CCTV camera via the protocol you can view the CCTV footage's in your phone. Night vision cameras are used for surveillance purpose. I would prefer cctv camera with ir illuminator for good image quality in the night time that will clear footage quality in my phone.
Recently many new applications have also being launched by security cameras with a view to solve problem you mentioned.

I am not able to view my business from home I have Lorex

Hi,

When you are at business, you are probably accessing the network locally.

When you reach home, you are accessing it via internet.

What you need to do is to set up the router to direct the incoming requests to the dvr ip address. It is called creating a virtual server.

You may want to subscribe to a DDNS service if your ip keeps changing. Businesses normally have a static ip but not if you have a normal dsl connection.

Cheers
