D-Link DCS-5222L User Manual
Section 5 - Security
The following steps generally apply to any router that you have on your network. The D-Link DIR-655 is used as an example to clarify the configuration
process. Refer to the router’s user manual for more information on router operation and configuration.
3. Access the Router with Your Web Browser
If you have cable or DSL Internet service, you will most likely have
a dynamically assigned WAN IP Address. ‘Dynamic’ means that your
router’s WAN IP address can change from time to time depending
on your ISP. A dynamic WAN IP Address identifies your router on the
public network and allows it to access the Internet. To find out what
your router’s WAN IP Address is, go to the Status page on your router
and locate the WAN information for your router (as shown on the next
page). The WAN IP Address will be listed. This will be the address that
you will need to type in your web browser to view your camera over
the Internet.
Router Set-Up and Installation
Your WAN IP Address will be listed on the router’s
Status > Device
Info page.
