Remote Monitoring through Dynamic IP 1 Year, 3 Months ago  
Can you tell me how is it possible for remote monitoring by Dynamic IP through a Hikvision7204, 7008.7018 or a 7016 DVR, without using IP cameras?

I just looked up the spec sheet on the line you specified (http://www.hikvision.com/en/epro2.asp?id=83&classid=127&bgclassid=104&act=&classname=) and unfortunately couldn't find any information from the manufacturer on whether or not the Hikvision supports dynamic IP addresses, so there's no guarantee it will work with your dynamic IP.

If we assume for a moment that the DVR does support a dynamic IP, though, all you'd have to do would be to port forward your router to get it out online. There are generally instructions on how to do this through the router manufacturer's tech support, however if not our sister website, Techstring.com, does offer router configuration for these applications for $75. Again, we cannot guarantee that your DVR supports dynamic IPs since the manufacturer's website has no information on the topic, but if it does then we could get you working. You can order that service at the following link: http://www.techstring.com/product_p/dvr-router.htm

If you are unable to get the DVR working on a dynamic IP, though, I might suggest you consider an upgrade. Looking over the spec sheet, what I'm seeing here is a low-resolution DVR that is very light on features, meaning it probably won't be able to satisfy all of your requirements for a security system (ability to identify faces, set up intelligent motion detection, alarm notifications, etc). It seems like that Hikvision might be a DVR that will just create more problems in the future, so an upgrade might be wise.

I think maybe you need to setup a static IP address if you want to realize remote access...

Not to disagree, but it actually depends on the DVR: You don't necessarily need a static IP, though that is the option that makes the most sense. Many newer models will support either static or dynamic.
