DDNS Setup (Advanced)20
Setting up DDNS connectivity allows you to view your recorder from any computer or compatible
mobile device with Internet access.
NOTE
The primary connectivity option for the recorder uses the Lorex Home app to connect to your system over the In-
ternet without the need for port forwarding or DDNS registration.
For instructions on using the Lorex Home app for mobile devices, see 15 Connecting Remotely using the Lorex
Home Mobile App, page 80.
20.1 STEP 1: Port Forwarding
If you are using DDNS, you must port forward the HTTP and Client Ports (default: 80 and
35000) on your router to your recorders IP address before you can remotely connect to your
system:
Manually port forward the required ports on your router to your recorders IP address by fol-
lowing your router manufacturers instructions. For more information on port forwarding, see
the reference guides on lorex.com.
