Lorex Monitor Remote Access Setup Guide
Dlink DI-624
Date: 25 May 2005
Step 1: Before you Start
This section will help you in setting up and configuring your Lorex Monitor(s) and PC(s) to be able to view the
video images from remote locations on the Internet. We assume that you already have the monitor hooked up
and working and that you can view video from within your Local Area Network (LAN). If not, please consult the
Quick Start guide or the Lorex Manual before you continue with remote access setup.
This document will help you do the following;
•
Configure your router to enable access from outside the LAN
•
Register for the Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS) from Lorex technology Inc.
•
Configure the Lorex Monitor to operate with DDNS
•
Set up a password to secure your monitor
•
Configure the Lorex Player to reach the monitor using the DDNS.
Step1: Configure your router to enable access from the Internet
To view video images remotely across the Internet involves setting up your broadband router. The example
shown here uses the DLink-624 Wireless Broadband Router. For routers other than the example shown, please
consult your router manual and/or your router manufacturer's website for technical support.
Step 1A: Log into your Router's Administration Server
Use a web browser on a computer that is connected to the LAN side of the router to access your broadband
router. Typically this will be at an IP Address such as 192.168.1.1 or maybe 192.168.0.1. Consult your router
manual for exact details. Enter the username and password for your particular router – by default the DLink-624
uses 'admin' as the username and the password is blank.
