hi all
After a long day I have finally got to DVR viewer and playback to work on wifi, for some reason I still cannot get the app to work outside of my wifi network any suggestions why? Or a way to solve this everytime it tried to load a image just says connection failed thanks in advance.

All ports are forwarded and firmware is up to date

Port forwarding is a serious security vulnerability...setup a vpn...there is a sticky that explains how.

When I went all ports forwarded I didn't actually mean every single one lol, I only did it to see if it worked and it didn't, I am Using the new Hik-Connect system but really struggling to get anything to work outside of wifi :(

As I said I'm not as I only did it to see if it would work over 4G and it doesn't, rather than just critising least help people to get it to work I have been trying for the last 2 days and no joy..

Why waste time Port forwarding when it's not a usable solution? Makes no sense...The fact that you can get ot working further increases your risk...

Someone who has no idea about VPN it's confusing even reading that sticky post

Start learning or pay someone... Would you leave the lock off your home because you are not a locksmith?

Reason why I don't use this forum.. your supposed to be a staff member yet you give people no help what so ever! As I said I have never done VPN before nor do I have any idea how to set it up

First I don't care if you don't use this forum..I provided the link... You are simply a lazy fuck...No one can help you if you are not willing to do the slightest bit of reading...Go hire a professional...

I pure love it when people believe that they are entitled to get free help by the very virtue of asking for it.
