We have been able to access the camera within the LAN network, but how to access the camera via
WAN or via internet?
We have to do Remote Access Settings before we want to access the
camera outside the LAN network.
What is the HTTP Port no. and How to change it ?
1) Default HTTP No.: 80
All the cameras’ default http no. is 80. For example, if the LAN IP link of the camera is
http://192.168.1.35, it says
that the camera’s http port no. is 80, if the LAN IP link of the camera is
http://192.168.1.35:88, it says that the
camera’s http port no. is 88. Port 80 could be blocked when
accessing via internet, we need to change port 80 to another one like 88, or 85 as you like, which will
not be conflict with other existing ports like 25, 21.
2) Change the default http no.80 to another one like 88, or 85 etc.
