Concord surveillance systems require an internet connection to allow you to access them remotely via the Concord Connect phone App.
All Concord surveillance NVR systems are equipped with a RJ45 network port on the rear for connecting to your internet modem via a RJ45 cable. A 1m RJ45 network patch cable is included in the Concord box package - longer cables are available in stores.
If you are unable to run a cable to your internet modem from the Concord DVR/NVR location, it is possible to connect the unit via Wi-Fi.
Please check that your Wi-Fi will reach the location of the Concord box first, by checking your modem's Wi-Fi signal quality on your phone at the same location.
How to connect the Concord unit via Wi-Fi.
The process will vary depending on which model you have.
Identify your unit from the model number sticker under the unit, and choose below.
QV8810 / QV8812 / QV8814 - wired camera systems
These systems only have a wired network port. To use Wi-Fi, buy an Wi-Fi extender with a RJ45 port, such as the Wavlink N300 (YN8370), to give them an internet connection.
- Plug the RJ45 cable supplied in the Concord carton to the LAN port on the Wi-Fi extender
- Plug the other end of the RJ45 cable into the LAN port on the Concord.
- Set the bottom MODE switch on the side of the extender to REPEATER.
- Plug the extender into a power point, switch it on, and wait 30 seconds.
- Press the round WPS button on the extender for 6 seconds (The WPS/Power LED should flash).
- Go to your internet modem, and press and hold the WPS button for 2-3 seconds.
- Wait 30 seconds and the units should find each other.
QV8820 / QV8822 - wireless camera systems
These can use Wi-Fi to connect to your modem router instead of the cable, provided the signal strength is good. The start-up wizard will offer you the option to scan for your Wi-Fi modem. You can also log in to the system, go to System Setup -> Network and scan for your Wi-Fi.
