NOTE: The DVRNS (DVR Name Service) allows you to
connect to the DVR, via internet, with the dynamic IP
address or the domain name. To make this feature easy,
you can name your DVR (example: TomStore05) and
connect using the DVR name instead of the IP address.
To use the DVRNS feature, you will need to have your DVR
registered through DVRNS with the settings matched
between your DVR and the DVRNS server. Any changes
to the DVRNS server might cause improper operation.
NOTE: When Network settings have been changed, set up
the DVRNS after saving your Network changes by selecting
the Save button.
