How to Use Free Dynamic DNS Services For DVR Connection

In my final article “Setup Internet Connection To Digital Video Recorder Behind Router” we’ve talked about Internet connection setup to safety DVR, primarily based on static IP. I assume that anybody studying this text will not be that a lot lucky, and couldn’t get static IP connection from Internet service supplier (Don’t fear, you aren’t alone). IP numbers identical to a cellphone numbers are being quickly depleted and a few ISP have taken acceptable actions to insure that pool of IP addresses might be out there for prolonged future. It is the primary motive, why some corporations determined to allocate static addresses to industrial accounts solely. In some instances the one out there high-speed supplier is the Cable Company. Cable DSL doesn’t supply static IP in any respect nevertheless it has increased speeds.

So, what will we do?

There are a number of completely different choices, however on this tutorial I’ll concentrate on the free options. Before I am going into the small print, lets take a look at DNS time period. DNS is Short for Domain Name System or Server; it takes IP handle as enter and tries to mach it to recognized area title. In our case we’re going to use dynamic area title providers to replace our IP handle because it adjustments and assign that IP to given area title. Than we use that area title to entry our safety DVR.

Option 1:

For stand-alone safety DVR the really helpful different is to make use of Linksys WRT54G Router, which has DDNS help. First go to and setup free account, with the account data out there, login to the Router and go to DDNS web page. Select dyndns.com for the service supplier and sort in account password. After saving the Router will ship IP updates to your dyndns.com account and regardless of your dynamic IP the connection will at all times be forwarded to you present IP.

Option 2:

For PC primarily based surveillance DVRs, if DVR does not have its personal DDNS help, please go to the identical service supplier at and once more account needs to be setup, however on this case as an alternative of utilizing Router for updating we are going to obtain updater software program. The updater software program is extra dependable than Router updater, nevertheless it wants pc working always. That is why updater software program is extra sensible in PC primarily based DVR, as it should run continuous. Both choices are utterly free and can enable us to have the ability to entry surveillance DVR with dynamic IP.

GOOD LUCK!
