3. Access the Router with Your Web Browser
If you have cable or DSL Internet service, you will most likely have a dynamically assigned WAN IP Address. ‘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 menu on your router and locate the WAN
information for your router. 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.
Note: Because a dynamic WAN IP will change frequently, you may want to obtain a Static IP address from your ISP. A Static IP address is a fixed IP
address that will not change over time and will be more convenient for you to use to access your camera from a remote location. The Static IP Address
will also allow you to access your camera attached to your router over the Internet. Another solution to this is to use a Dynamic DNS service. Go to

4. Forward Ports to Enable Remote Image and Video Viewing
Because you are using a router with Network Address Translation, when you enter your WAN IP address into a remote browser, it will not necessarily
know how to route to your IP camera. Therefore, you need to forward the HTTP port to the local IP of the camera.
As each router varies in design, you will need to consult your router’s user guide for instructions on how to forward the HTTP port to your camera.
Important: Some ISPs block access to port 80 and other commonly used Internet ports to conserve bandwidth. Check with your ISP so that you
can open the appropriate ports accordingly. If your ISP does not pass traffic on port 80, you will need to change the port the camera uses from
80 to something else, such as 800. Not all routers are the same, so refer to your user manual for specific instructions on how to open ports.
