IP address of the second camera. Web page requests arriving at port 81 will
automatically be directed to the second camera’s address.
To instruct your browser to use a different port, other than 80, to access a web page, you
he steps to set up remote access are as follows:

ring up Internet Explorer and enter your WAN IP
Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS)

he Internet uses DNS servers to lookup domain names and translates them into IP
would add the port number at the end of the IP address or URL, separated by a colon.
For example, to access a camera on port 81 if your WAN IP address is 210.82.13.21,
you would enter http:// 210.82.13.21:81 into your browser’s address bar. You can do the
same thing with a URL such as http://tom.vipcam.cn:81.

Go to your gateway router setup page and co
LAN IP address of Camera_1(e.g. 192.168.0.151) and port 82 to the LAN IP address
of Camera_2(e.g. 192.168.0.152).
From somewhere on the Internet, b
address followed by a colon and the port number such as: http://210.82.13.21:81 to
access Camera_1.
Note:
Some
routers use port 80 for remote configuration and it’s possible to
experience a conflict when using port 80 for camera access. Therefore, you
should use port 81 for your first camera, port 82 for the second, etc... This
setup also makes it easier to remember which camera is using a particular port
number.

Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) provides you at least one IP addr
to connect to the Internet. The address you get may be static, meaning it never changes,
or dynamic, meaning it’s likely to change periodically. Just how often it changes, depends
on your ISP. A dynamic IP address complicates remote access since you may not know
what your current WAN IP address is when you want to access your network over the
Internet. The solution to the dynamic IP address problem comes in the form of a dynamic
DNS service.

addresses. Domain names, such as
www.vipcam.cn
, are just easy to remember
aliases for IP addresses. A dynamic DNS service is unique because it provides a
means of updating your IP address so that your listing will remain current when your IP
address changes. There are several excellent DDNS services available on the Internet
and best of all most are free to use. Two such services you can use are
www.3322.org
and
www.vipcam.cn
. You’ll need to register with the service and set up the domain name
of your choice to begin using it. Please refer to the home page of the service for detailed
instructions.
