Using and Configuring the DCS-660 with a Router
Important: Some ISPs block access to port 80. Be sure to check with your ISP so that you can open the
appropriate ports accordingly. Some ISPs block traffic on commonly used ports to conserve bandwidth.
If your ISP does not pass traffic on port 80, you will need to change the port the camera uses from 80
to something else, such as 800. Not all routers are the same, so refer to your user manual for specific
instructions on how to open ports.
