4.1 Connection Instruction
Before visiting the IP Camera, you should firstly connect it to the Network, supply the power
to it, and check if the light of RJ45 Socket is normal to make sure all of the communication
links are usual. The connection method likes as Figure 3.
1) IP Camera-1 and IP Camera-2 are connected separately to 2 different LANs.
2) And these 2 LANs are already connected to the Internet. In order to get the LANs to be
connected to the Internet, they are required to be equipped with router and to apply for
the communication link from the local Internet Service Provider (ISP) and connect to it by
ADSL or optical fiber, etc.
3) PC-3 is connected to the Internet.
4.2 Visit Instruction
To visit the IP Camera, you should do some settings of IP Camera and Internet besides
getting the communication link fluency.
1) The PC and IP Camera are in the same LAN. If you want to use this PC to visit the IP
Camera, you need to make sure their IP address is at the same segment. Otherwise you
need to do the reset of the IP Camera’s IP address.
2) The PC and IP Camera are in different LANs, but they are all connected to Internet. For
the IP Camera-1 and PC-2 in Figure 3, if you want to visit IP Camera-1 by PC-2, you
should firstly do the setting as 1) to make sure that you can visit IP Camera-1 through
PC-1 and then do the setting of router-1 (do the port forwarding from the router). The
PC-2’s visit application could be sent through router-1 to IP Camera-1. Normally, PC-2
could only send the information to router-1, if you don’t do the setting of router-1, then
PC-2 could not visit IP Camera-1.
5 Visit IP Camera from LAN
5.1 Set IP Address
The IP addresses of IP Camera and PC should be at the same segment, in Figure 3, the IP
Camera-1 can’t be visited. Run the WIPC403 Utility in the CD, click Search button, and then
select the IP Camera to reset the IP Camera’s IP address, as the Figure 4.

6 Visit IP Camera from WAN
6.1 Port Forwarding
Follow the “Visit IP Camera from LAN” steps; make sure PC-1 can visit IP Camera-1. In
Figure 3, before the computers in WAN (PC-2, PC-3) can visit the IP Camera-1, must put the
IP Camera -1 into WAN. You can set Port Forwarding on Router-1 to put IP Camera-1 into
WAN.
Open the Router Setting interface on PC-1. The interfaces for different routers are different,
and the Port Forwarding settings are different, please refer to the Router’s Manual on how to
set. For most routers, “Port Forwarding” option can be found in the Setting / Firewall Interface.
Fill in the IP address and Port of IP Camera-1 into the corresponding blank. Figure 9 is an

14
AZTECH
WIPC403
IP
CAMERA USER MANUAL v1.0
example.
Figure 9
Select “status” option and remember the WAN IP address, enter the IP address in browser of
PC-1, if IP Camra-1 can be visited via PC-1, the port forwarding is successful. And PC-2 and
PC-3 can also visit the IP Camera-1.
WAN IP address is allocated by ISP, please make sure that it is an available WAN
IP address. As WAN IP address is lack, many WAN IP address are available in
limited area. If PC-2 and PC-3 are not in this area, the IP Camera-1 won’t be
visited by them.
If User wants to put several IP Cameras into WAN, every device should set the
Port Forwarding. In order to distinguish these devices, every device should set a
different port. If the port of the device is not 80, should add the port to IP address
with colon to visit the IP Camera. Example: http://202.96.82.177:81.
6.2 DDNS
In Figure 3, Router-1 get WAN IP address via ADSL, these WAN IP address is always
changing, so, the IP address can’t be confirmed when visit the device in WAN. We need the
dynamic domain name server (DDNS). IP Camera-1 send IP configuration to DDNS every
few times, DDNS can recognize the WAN IP address of the router-1 which connected with IP
Camera-1. The WAN IP address can be searched on DDNS by domain name. Herein,
domain name substitute the dynamic IP address. If the device can’t be visited by IP address,
this domain name is also unavailable.
6.2.1 Manufacturer’s Domain Name
Device manufacturer has established a DDNS, and allotted a dynamic domain name to every
device, the domain name has been integrated into devices during production. For example,

15
AZTECH
WIPC403
IP
CAMERA USER MANUAL v1.0
enter domain name of Figure 10, the browser will connect the device and display the IP
address.
Figure 10
The domain name is realized by forward manner, the domain name will change
into the IP address and port number of the device when visited by domain name.
If the device can be visited by IP address but can’t be visited by manufacturer’s
domain name, please check the DNS info is available or not and make sure the
DNS setting is the same with the DNS setting of PC in LAN.
6.2.2 Third Party Domain Name
User can also use third party DDNS, such as www.3322.org. User should apply a free
domain name from this website and fill the info into the below blanks (Figure 11) and save the
settings. Then the domain name can be used.
Figure 11
The third party domain name is realized by analysis manner, the domain name will
be displayed in the browser all the time when visit camera. If the port is not 80, the
port number should be added to the domain name with colon. Example:
http://ipcam.3322.org:81

7.2.5 UPNP Settings
Figure 20
UPNP: UPNP stands for universal plug and play, if you started UPNP, once the IP
camera was connected into the LAN, it will communicate with the router of the LAN. It will
request the router to open a port to forward its own port. User doesn’t need to log in the
router to set the port forwarding.
Before using UPNP function, please make sure the router’s UPNP function has
been triggered. Because there are so many different routers, and not all of them
can support UPNP. Please test if the router work well with the equipment, if not, we
would suggest you don’t enable this function.
