DDNS Slow for CCTV system

$

Hey Guys,

I have just setup a NVR server with Blue Iris and a couple of Hikvision IP cams. All works great.

I have a no-ip.org account as i dont have a static IP address at home. I have setup my camera application to connect to e.g. http://sam***.no-ip.org which then connects me to my cameras from outside my local network. Port forwarding has been done etc.. The cameras stream very nicely and without and issues.

When i get home and use this application in my Local network/via wifi. it lags really bad. If i change the connection address to the actual local IP e.g 192.168.1.20, the stream is perfect.

I guess when im using the DDNS address, the application goes out to the internet into no-ip.org service, then redirects itself back to my network. But surely that shouldn't cause such bad lag?

Is there something i can do locally to redirect that DDNS address to the local PC? or any ideas on how to fix the speed issues?

It will be a pain, to keep chopping and changing from DDNS address to local address when im home or out.

thanks,

Sam
