OK im in the router and so far everything looks great.

Here is what I want to do. Go into the DVR setup and go to the network setup page. Put a check on the box that says static ip.

Then put in this info.
IP: 192.168.2.250
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.2.1
DNS: 192.168.2.1

Save and reboot the DVR. I will update the port forwarding rules now while you do that. SO the new IP for the DVR is going to be 192.168.2.250

OK Shane,  Changed per your instructions and rebooted DVR.   

[Shane]

Ok, still not working. I am wondering if your ISP is blocking port 80. One way to find out

In the DVR change the http port from 80 to 82. Save and reboot the DVR. I will update the port forwarding rule in your router now

OK Shane,  Web server changed to 82, and rebooted.  Thanks!  Enrique 

[Shane]

Bingo! That was the trick. Your ISP is blocking port 80. When I connect on port 82 it comes right up

http://xx.xx.xx.xx:82/

I removed your IP. But it does work, I have the lorex client up right now in internet explorer.

Go ahead and confirm your good to go and I will lock this thread

HI Shane! Please send me instructions to log in, since I am having problems doing it from here.  Thanks !!

Well you may not be able to login through your internet IP while at home. That is called reverse nat and a lot of routers dont play nice with it.

Have a friend or someone go to http://your.dns.account:82
Replace your.dns.account with your dns name you made. And make sure you have the :82 at the end.

Have them put that into IE and they will see the lorex login to your dvr
