Sorry for the late reply but as luck would have it , I lost internet for over a day! But anyway thanks for the replies. I have a Zyxel USG series router so I did get the NVR on my network and it is isolated and blocked from reaching the WAN. I am able to access it via a browser and view everything so that is all good.
My private LAN is setup as 192.168.0.X and the NVR is set on 192.168.1.X. Everything on that subnet cannot go out to the LAN. However I have a PC and a cell phone on that LAN segment and they can access the NVR fine.

The only problem still remaining is something I might not understand. As I understand it when a motion "alarm" is triggered it is supposed to send a notification to your cell phone. Is this what they call a "push" notification? I am not getting any, so I am starting to suspect that this feature requires the ability of the NVR to access the internet. Is this correct?

I do have the Reolink app running on my phone and my phone is on the same LAN segment as the NVR. I am able to access the NVR from the app on my phone and view the cameras live feed, etc... The NVR is 192.168.1.10 and the phone is 192.168.1.11. But I am getting no alerts when motion is triggered.

I guess I am missing something.

I'm wondering if what I want to do is possible. I have a pretty good router that is highly configurable. What I would like to do is to put the system on my LAN only with no access to the internet. Then I would like to be able to access it from any PC on my LAN and, hopefully, from my cell phone but only while my cell phone is on my LAN. I don't see much in the way of instructions for setting the NVR up on a LAN though.

Has anyone written such a tutorial? Is this going to be that difficult?
