    Your post is almost impossible to read and I'd guess most wouldn't bother ! Try punctuation ?!

    From what I can understand from the words you are trying to access a CCTV system over the internet from a phone app - is that right ?

    Most internet connections in homes use dynamic IP addressing, it's possible to request a fixed address from most providers. An alternative to a fixed IP is a Dynamic DNS service like DynDNS or NoIP.

    This will get you as far as the WAN side of your router, from there you need to get to your internal LAN. This will more than likely involve opening some ports and directing the traffic to the CCTV unit.
