Port Forwarding
Before you continue, check the internet indicator
on the camera.
•
If the indicator blinks slowly every 5 seconds, you can proceed with port forwarding.
•
If the indicator blinks rapidly, make sure that your router is connected to internet. Then proceed with
port forwarding.
To set up port forwarding, proceed as follows:
1.
Open your web browser on your mobile device, and enter the IP address of your router in the
address bar.
Your router configuration page appears.
2.
Go to the port forwarding (or virtual server) rule configuration page.
Note: the naming of port forwarding or virtual server may vary based on the brand of your router.
Refer to the user manual of your specific router for more information.
The example below shows the screen for a D-Link router: select the "Advanced" tab and then
choose "Port Forwarding".
3.
Enter the camera IP address and port number that you noted down in step 7 of "Configuring the
Network", and enable this rule.
4.
Check if the status indicators and on the camera are both on (not blinking).
o
If yes, continue with "Checking the Connection".
o
If the internet indicator keeps blinking, check the port forwarding settings again.
7.6
Checking the Connection
When you have completed network setup and port forwarding, check your connection setup as follows:
1.
On your mobile device, switch your network mode to 3G or connect to a different wireless network
than the one that has your camera connected.
2.
Start EagleEyes and select the camera you just added to see if you can access it.
o
If yes, your network connection is OK.
o
If no, the port number that you are using for the camera may be blocked. Return to step 7 in
"Configuring the Network" to change the port number.
7.7
Set up your camera with WPS
The WPS button allows you to quickly and easily connect the camera to your wireless router if it also has
WPS functionality.
If your wireless router does not have a WPS function, you can set up your network manually. Refer to the
user guide on the included cd-rom or download instructions from from http://www.surveillance-
download.com/user/n812.swf
1.
On the back of the camera, press and hold the WPS button. Release when you hear a tone.
2.
On your wireless router, press the WPS button within 30 seconds.
Note: The WPS function on your router can be a virtual button on the configuration page, or a
physical button, depending on the brand. Check your router’s documentation for more information.
The camera and wireless router now connect automatically. The connection is successful if you hear a
tone, and if the LAN status indicator on the camera is on (not blinking).
Note: If the connection fails, check if the wireless authentication of your router is WPA or WPA2. If not,
please change the authentication method and try again.
