Please apply a static IP from an ISP (Internet Service Provider). With the static IP
address, you can connect the network camera via a router or connect it to the WAN
directly.
Connecting the network camera via a router
Steps:
1. Connect the network camera to the router.
2. Assign a LAN IP address, the subnet mask and the gateway.
3. Save the static IP in the router.
4. Set port mapping, e.g., 80, 8000, 8200 and 554 ports. The steps for port mapping
vary depending on different routers. Please call the router manufacturer for
assistance with port mapping.
5. Visit the network camera through a web browser or the client software over the
internet.
