Q: What is the wireless transmission range for the DCS-1000W? A: Generally the wireless distance can go up to 100 meters indoors and up to 300 meters outdoors. The range is limited by the number of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through. Typical ranges vary depends on the types of materials and background Radio Frequency (RF) noise in your home or business and the configuration setting of your network environment. Internet Camera Installation Q: Can the Internet Camera be used outdoors? A: The DCS-1000W is not weatherproof. It needs to be equipped with a weatherproof case to be used outdoors and it is not recommended. Q: What network cabling is required for the DCS-1000W? A: DCS-1000W uses Category 5 UTP cable allowing 10 Base-T and 100 Base-T networking. Q: Can the DCS-1000W be setup as a PC-cam on the computer? A: No, the DCS-1000W is an Internet Camera used only on Ethernet and Fast Ethernet network and supported by wireless transmission. The D-Link DSBC100, DSB-C300, DSC-350 or DSC-350F can be used as a PC Camera (Webcam). Q: Can the DCS-1000W be connected on the network if it consists of only private IP addresses? A: DCS-1000W can be connected to a LAN with private IP addresses. Q: Can the DCS-1000W be installed and work if a firewall exists on the network? A: If a firewall exists on the network, port 80 is open for ordinary data communication. However, since DCS-1000W transmits image data, the default port 8481 is also required. Therefore, it is necessary to open port 8481 of the network for remote users to access DCS-1000W. Trouble Shooting Q: I cannot access the DCS-1000W from a web browser? A1: The possible cause might be the IP Address for the DCS-1000W is already being used by another device. To correct the possible problem, you 63
