First method :
Use the embedded DDNS to access the camera via the Internet
Each Foscam camera has an embedded unique DDNS domain name, the format of this domain name is
xxxxxx.myfoscam.org. On the bottom of the camera, you can see the domain name sticker with this information on it.
For example, we can use test09.myfoscam.org. In the camera, click Settings at the top, click “Network” on the left, then
click “DDNS” to get to the DDNS settings page. Here you can see the unique domain name of your camera.
Figure 2.12
Now you can use “http://Domain name + HTTP Port” to access the camera via the Internet.
Take hostname test09.myfoscam.org and HTTP Port of 2000 for example, the URL link to access the camera via the
Internet would be http:// test09.myfoscam.org:2000.
Second method :
Use the Third party DDNS to access the camera via the Internet
Step 1
Please go to the third party DDNS website(such as
www.no-ip.com
) to create a free hostname.
Step 2
DO DDNS Service Settings within the Camera
Fill the HTTP Port of the
camera in the columns of
External Port and Internal
Port. Example: 2000
Fill in this section with the
LAN IP of the camera; we
would enter “100” for our
example.
Assign a name for the port
