Help with NVR and iPhone connection

Hi, got 2 cameras working today, but when i use the dahua lite app to connect i am getting a failure, when i look at EASY4IP in settings it is ticked enable, but status is NOT CONNECTED, what am i doing wrong please.....

A lot of folks will tell you using EASY4IP is the first thing wrong. If you have not, start here: How to Secure Your Network (Don't Get Hacked!) | IP Cam Talk

Dahua is transitioning away from EASY4IP to another app; LeChange. See here: Dahua APP LeChange

I’m not a techno-savvy IT person but using the many warnings on IPCT, the wiki and all of the other info like cliff notes available, I was able to set up a VPN and use iDMSS for remote viewing. The non-lite version also allows for push notifications of incidents. Food for thought... maybe much better than a compromised computer, nvr, camera or worse yet getting locked out.
