If you have cable or DSL service, you will most likely have a dynamically assigned WAN IP
a
ddress. ‘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
screen on your router and locate the WAN information for your router. As
shown on the following 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. Be sure to
uncheck the
Reset IP address at next boot
button at the top of the screen after modifying
the IP address. Failure to do so will reset the IP address when you restart your computer.
Your WAN IP Address will be listed here.
3. Open/set Virtual Server Ports to enable remote image viewing
The firewall security features built into the router and most routers prevent users from
accessing the video from the device over the Internet. The router connects to the Internet
over a series of numbered ports. The ports normally used by the device are blocked from
access over the Internet. Therefore, these ports need to be made accessible over the
Internet. This is accomplished using the
Virtual Server
function on the router. The Virtual
Server ports used by the camera must be opened through the router for remote access to
your camera.
