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

congured and how best to setup the DVR.

Conguring 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 dierent types of networks that the

DVR can be connected to. The three types of networks are:

DHCP: DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration 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 dened, 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. Thisprotocolisforadvancedusersonly.
