Access Your Router on Your Web Browser
If you have cable or DSL service, you will most likely have a dynamically assigned WAN IP
Address. ‘Dynamic’ means that your router’s WAN IP address can change from time to time
depending on your ISP.
A dynamic WAN IP Address identifies your router on the public network
and allows it to access the Internet. To find out what your router’s WAN IP Address is, go to
the
Status
screen on your router and locate the WAN information for your router.
As shown on
the next page the WAN IP Address will be listed. This will be the address that you will need to
type in your web browser to view your camera over the Internet. Be sure to uncheck the
Reset
IP address at next boot
button at the top of the screen after modifying the IP address. Failure to
do so will reset the IP address when you restart your computer.
These are the port settings for your
camera. If necessary, these ports can
be changed if they are already in use
by other devices (e.g. in a multiple
camera environment).
