This is the NETWORK SETUP screen.
This is the most technically complex aspect to setting up the DVR, and does
require a working knowledge of network technologies.
If you are unfamiliar with networking, then we suggest talking with a professional -
ideally, the same person who installed your network, as they’ll know exactly how it’s
congured and how best to setup the DVR.
Conguring your DVR and your home network can be a tricky process - and these
two pages are not nearly long enough to cover it. See “Remote Access” on page
62 (and what follows) for more information.
TYPE: Here you can choose between the three dierent types of networks that the
DVR can be connected to. The three types of networks are:
DHCP: DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol) is a system where one de-
vice on your network (usually a router) will automatically assign IP addresses to
devices connected to the network.
STATIC: Static networks require all devices need to have their IP addresses manu-
ally dened, as there is no device dedicated to automatically assigning addresses.
PPPoE: PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol Over Ethernet) is an advanced protocol
which allows the DVR to be connected directly to a DSL line, without the need for
a router or gateway. Thisprotocolisforadvancedusersonly.
