Re: Do I need to lease a static IP?

Although a static ip would be a quick and easy solution to your problem there are other alternatives. I would take a look into a dynamic ip service such as DYN DNS

As far as using "Log Me In", it is a remote access program but does not explicitly support streaming video. Will it work? Yes. But the video will most likely stutter to the point where its not a viable solution. Try the dynamic dns service as this will give you a direct line into the DVR (assuming the dvr supports this feature).
