Does Dahua still offer free web base access to cameras?
I remember I used to have the option to log in to view my cameras from any pc that had internet access via a portal on I believe it was there IMOU website.. Do they still have this option?

Yes, but it is a security risk to use.

Thanks looney2ns. Do you the web adress to login to the portal? These cameras are not in anyway personal so I could care less if people view them. Thank you for the warning though

You ask this because you obviously didn't read the link I provided.

Viewing them by some out sider is not the issue. Some hacker wanting to use them as a bot net, or use them to access other things on your network is the risk.

In addition to what @looney2ns mentioned: If the cameras are on your network, and they are on your cameras... they are on your network
