    Access NVR from internet using PPTP

    UPDATE - all working perfectly. Solution - upgraded mobile phone to Samsung J5 & it it took all of 5 minutes to get up and running with PPTP. When I get some time I will try with IPSec. The Sony C6603 has been consigned to the rubbish bin. Thanks for all comments & suggestions.

I am having much the same problem with the IPSec server - connecting but getting no LAN access. small steps & all that.
