Default Remote viewing security cameras

I've got a CNM Secure 4 camera DVR setup and can happily connect to it on
the network with Internet Explorer but i'm having no joy with Firefox/
Ubuntu.

I'd like to get it working as I only have Windows on one of the computers
I use.

Any help or advice would be appreciated, assuming it's possible.

Probably needs to use activex which is an Internet Explorer / Windows
thing. AFAIK will not work with Linux / Mac.

Could you put the frames onto a webpage or set up FTP access on your
local router and then virtually any type of computer can access them on
the internet with suitable passwording if you needed.
If your IP address is allocated by your ISP, you can use free services
such as http://www.no-ip.com to give you a URL to use that stays
constant even if your IP address changes.

i.e. Dynamic DNS. It may be necessary to use a service that OP's router
supports.
