To view the streaming media through 3GPP-compatible mobile devices, make sure the Network
Camera can be accessed over the Internet. For more information on how to set up the Network
Camera over the Internet, please refer to Setup the Network Camera over the Internet on page 9.
To utilize this feature, please check the following settings on your Network Camera:
1. Because most players on 3GPP mobile phones do not support RTSP authentication, make
sure the authentication mode of RTSP streaming is set to disabled.
For more information, please refer to RTSP Streaming on page 55.
2. As the the bandwidth on 3G networks is limited, larger video sizes are not available. Please
set the video and audio streaming parameters as listed below.
