Amcrest IP Config question

[Serdac]

Hello,

I successfully set up two indoor Amcrest IP2M-841 ProHD 1080P (1920TVL) cameras wirelessly via my iPhone using the Amcrest View Pro app with no issues. I have just downloaded the Amcrest IP Config and wish to view my cameras remotely (away from home) from my laptop. Refresh isn't pulling any cameras up, admin and admin is saying connection failed and my username and password are saying connection fail. I want to say it has something to do with the IP Address and Port listed on the Amcrest IP Config log in. Any tips as to what I should do? Also is there a way I can just port the setting from my iPhone to the Amcrest IP Config? Thanks.

to access your cameras remotely via the amcrest view pro app, you should consider utilizing both port forwarding and DDNS.
