not you will need to contact your ISP or your network administrator.

Most ISPs do not open port 80 (a DCS-900 default video transfer port) for their residential customers, the DCS-900 has the
ability to use a different port by enabling the second http port for its video transfer.
If the second port is enabled, it will automatically disable the default port 80. Any unused ports can be used such as port 800,
801, etc. Remember that if the DCS-900 is behind a router you would need to forward that port to the DCS-900’s IP Address.
When accessing the camera you would need to type the camera’s IP Address + the port number (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port
number, or http://192.168.0.20:800 for example). Please refer to “Installing the DCS-900 Behind a Router” on page 38.
UPnP ™ is short for Universal Plug and Play which is a networking architecture that provides compatibility among networking
equipment, software, and peripherals. The DCS-900 is an UPnP enabled internet camera, and this function will work with
operating systems such as Windows
® XP. If you do not want to use the UPnP functionality, it can be disabled by selecting
Disabled. This function is enabled by default.
