IP Camera

2.2.1.
First, Connect the IP CAM to the home/office network
Please connect the
IP Camera
accessories to the
IP Camera
body correctly, including the power
adapter and Ethernet cable. And connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the home network or
office network. Usually, this Ethernet cable is plugged into a home NAT/router device or an Ethernet
switch if in the office (as shown in Figure 2-2). Since the default settings of the
IP Camera
use DHCP
function and very often there is a DHCP server on most of the Home/office network, the
IP Camera
should be connected to the Internet immediately. The Internet status LED is constant red light to
indicate this good connection status. If the LED is blinking, please refer to section 3.3~3.5 to try other
network settings.
