Port Forwarding; Ddns Setup - HIKVISION DS-90xxHFI-ST Quick Start Manual

Units with older firmware have the RTSP PORT set to 554. A lot of cell phone carriers block
incoming data through port 554, which is why HikVision recommends changing that port to
10554
The HTTP PORT and the SERVER PORT can be changed if desired, in order to avoid
conflicts with the ISP or the existing network configuration.
After assigning the IP information to the DVR/NVR, connect a computer to the same router that
the DVR/NVR is connected to (wired connection is recommended, to avoid complications). Log
into the ROUTER, and proceed with PORT FORWARDING.
For PORT FORWARDING assistance contact the Internet Service Provider (ISP), or the router
