The DMSS service has got faster and more reliable. There's been a number of updates to DMSS and the NVR. This is more than I can say for the earlier cheapy brand NVR I had previous which only lasted 5 months..
Right at this moment, I think I didn't need port forwarding. To verify, I looked at my HG659 under Forwarding, there were no entries.
I recall DMSS being p2p.
Earlier, I used XMEYE which worked OK, but once the Dahua NVR turned up, I switched to DMSS. It was more polished as software.
Maybe install the Hikvision equivalent app.?
I would have researched cloud based video storage but decided on my own HDD as the better option at the time.
OH yeah, at one stage I used Teamviewer to access my PC remotely. Then I could view cameras etc. I think also NGROK was used for something, perhaps tunnelling CGNAT.
Actually my very 1st IP camera was a Hikvision. I had to retire it because it wouldn't play nicely with my Dahua system. Elsewhere I read to use either Hik or Dahua but not mix the two. That seems to be my experience.
Hope this is of some help. Good luck.
