Proxy Server Settings

A proxy server is used to protect computers when connecting to the Internet. If your computer network uses a

proxy server (many corporate networks do; most home networks do not) and you are accessing the camera

from a PC connected to the same LAN as the camera, you may experience the following issues.

–

Camera cannot be accessed

–

Slow image refresh rate

–

Camera images cannot be seen

–

Audio features cannot be used

If your network uses a proxy server, we recommend setting your web browser to bypass the proxy server when

accessing the camera over the LAN.

Note

•

Consult your Internet Service Provider or network administrator to find out if your network uses a proxy

server and consult your network administrator before changing your PC’s proxy server settings.

•

The video and audio features cannot be used when the camera is accessed through a proxy server

requiring authentication.
