Access the camera with a local network IP address.
• The wrong IP address class is assigned to the camera.
If you access the camera on the LAN, the PC IP address and
the camera IP address must be set in the same class. Set the
camera IP address same as the class of the PC IP address
(see page 119 of the Operating Instructions on the CD-
ROM).

Set the web browser to access the Internet directly (see page
127 of the Operating Instructions on the CD-ROM).
• The camera was accessed on the same LAN by entering the
registered URL (or the router's global IP address) when using a
DynamicDNS service.
To access a camera on the same LAN, use the address for
its local network address.
The camera can
be accessed on
the LAN, but
cannot be
accessed from
the Internet.
• The default gateway address may be wrong.
Set the correct default gateway address (see page 36 of the
Operating Instructions on the CD-ROM).
• UPnP
TM
is disabled on the router.
Enable UPnP
TM
on the router following the router manual.
• Port forwarding is not enabled on the router (see page 42 of the
Operating Instructions on the CD-ROM).

• Firewalls such as packet filtering on the router are blocking
camera access.
Set the router to allow access to the camera following the
router manual.
