Note: set the option Report ADSL IP by mail under Mail Service
Settings to receive the camera‟s IP address by mail.
12.4 Connect the camera via a router
1. Connect the camera to the LAN and configure the camera with
the IP camera tool (see above).
2. Log on to the camera as administrator and configure DDNS
Service Settings.
3. Click Submit to reboot the camera.
The camera is now available through the internet by entering the
domain name in your internet browser.
12.5 Static IP users
When using only fixed IP addresses, a DDNS service is not required.
There are two ways to find out the static WAN IP address of the
camera:
Connect a computer to the same connection as the camera and
open a website that tells you what IP address you are on (e.g.
www.whatismyip.com).
Log on to the router and view the status page to find out its WAN
IP address. To connect to the IP camera, enter the WAN IP
address of the router followed by the port number to which the
camera is connected into the address bar of a browser (e.g.
http://116.25.51.115:85/). Make sure UPnP is enabled or the
camera is added to the router‟s virtual mapping list.
12.6 Using a mobile phone
It is possible to connect a smartphone to the IP camera. Many third-
party software developers offer compatible software. An example is
the “IP Cam Viewer” software which is available from the iTunes and
Google Play stores. After installation, just enter the external
hostname, IP port, username and password, and you can view the
images on your smartphone.
13. Troubleshooting
IP address
Always make sure the camera is on the same subnet (same subnet
mask) as the PC you are using to configure it.
