Hope this helps... I spent 5 reckless and desperate days looking and trying to connect them... and boy when you succeed it's such a payoff. I've successfully connected 2 laptops via wifi, 3 pcs via cable, and 1 CCTV Dvr via cable on my primary router. 2 laptops via wifi, 1 network printer, 2 pcs, and 1 CCTV DVR all via cable on my secondary router. I was in despair when the computer store salesman told me that the D-link 2640T WDS function was not usable and access points for wireless bridging are not in production anymore...

(Dynamic IP addresses change all the time when you connect to your internet service provider, on the other hand static IP will always remain the same and you can also check it via www.canyouseeme.org <–keep this handy we’ll use it later) 2. Make sure both of your CCTV / DVR system supports network viewing. Set both systems to have different individual static ip and ports. Example : 1st DVR system IP ADD = 192.168.1.122 [port = 98] 2nd DVR system IP ADD = 192.168.1.123 [port = 99] 3. Now log in to your D-Link router via http://192.168.1.1(default username = admin and password = admin) and select the Dynamic DNS page. There you will see a dropdown box with the option to select the www.dyndns.org account
