does this system require static ip address?

Yes, the ip needs to be fixed. Also, web and smartphone access to via proprietary software (ASee software) while free, is littered with advertising and limited features. Typical we browser access, like provided by other mfg, nis NOT SUPPORTED. They do provide a PC compatible software, but is quite old.

no. the dvr creates its own ip address that you need to use to access from your computer. You log on through your computer by typing in the dvr ip address in the web address area.. otherwise you can hook a monitor and watch it from the dvr. you only need a static ip address on your computer if you want to look at or watch from an outside computer or source

You can use the system with a static IP address or you can set up dynamic DNS. Dynamic DNS service can be obtained for free, and the included instructions cover the topic.

Yes, in Settings, Network, TCP/IP Setup you have a choice:TCP/IP Setup Obtain an IP address automatically(DHCP)Use the following IP address Obtain DNS Server address automaticallyUse the following DNS server address HTTP/RTSP port: RTP port range: -- HTTP/RTSP Authentication method:Use Basic AuthenticationUse Digest Access Authentication

Not unless you want to have access to you're system from any location then yes you would need to have it set up online other then that this system works awsome.Ive had it for almost a yr and I can honestly say I have no complaints.

its actually system on its own. U will need to assign different ip addresses, so if one went down, others still work. amazon has the best price, just check.

It does. You can set it up via the GUI under IP Configuration > IPv4 Management and Interfaces > DHCP Server. Or you can set it up using the CLI.

No, this is a switch not a router. The ports can be managed over the network but the switch itsself can not issue IP addresses.

Yes, You will need To do port forwarding, I didn't ddns instead that, I got static Ip from my Internet service provider

May need to port map and get an external IP address. No-ip has free packages.

You can access it via browser from your home network using a local ip# (192.168.xxx.yyy) and from home/anywhere over the internet using a login account you create at micaseverde.com when you set up your unit.this works quite well and also solves the problem that most internet providers use a semi-static DHCP to assign IP numbers and your home's IP address will change over time.

Yes to all your questions.But you have to setup dynamic DNS on the device , so when power goes out it will notify the Internet, that the IP address has changed. I use dyndns.org.

DHCP mode let's the router tell each machine on the network what's its IP address is. Static IP let's the user tell the machine and the router a specific IP to use.

Yes, as does all equipment when you connect it to a router, the router will "assign" the new device an IP address. Removing power will not erase the device's assigned IP address. The device which you connect to the internet (DSL modem or cable modem) is what you need to make sure has a static IP address. My DSL modem ( internet service through AT&T;) does NOT have a static IP address. During the summer lightning strikes will cause it to reset (reboot) and I have to identify the new IP address from home and then edit the IP address in the smartphone app to view the cameras. Yes, to the 2nd question as well. I use the IP cam viewer by Robert Chou. Yes, as does all equipment when you connect it to a router, the router will "assign" the new device an IP address.

You rock man for posting this! what happen with me is that I attached a Wii to the network and it took the printer's IP address! Making the Ip address of the printer static is the key. This way, my computers aren't knocking on the addresses of other devices looking for the printer! :)Thanks again!

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) in the tech world is a service program that gives out or assigns and maintains unique I.P. Address (Internet Protocol Address) to other networked devices. It is that address that allows them to communicate with other devices on the same subnet or network realm. Without DHCP you would have to manually address all your network devices.The Static just means that you would like to control address assignment rather than have the device do it for you automatically.

Yes. You can use them with a standalone router. It just needs to be able to see the DHCP server on the same subnet as the access point. You only need to have the controller running if you use the guest services portal. Otherwise it is really a configuration utility not a controller. Hope that answers your questions!!

Hi. It would be necessary know about how your router spread ip adresses. If it does dinamically with mac address mapping, or if there is a limited number of adresses, etc. Despite this, are you sure you router can't "see" the storage, or your gadgets can't? Try this: use a switch to connect storage and pc. Configure static adresses on both. Confirm if they see each other. If they do, your storage is fine, and you will need to discover why router does not give storage a ip address. You will need refer to the storage configuration manual too. Regards.

Yes, if using in Ethernet Bridge mode, they will each either accept a static IP address, or will get one from your local DHCP server. They'll scan the wireless channels until they find the AP (or you can specify the AP to use) of your network.
