For example, http://116.25.51.115:85.Note: Make sure Port mapping is successful. Port mapping can be configured in two ways: •฀Enter฀the฀setting฀page฀of฀the฀router฀which฀the฀IP฀camera connects with to enable the UPNP function. To do so, open the the IP camera “Upnp Settings” dialog box, and make sure the status for “Upnp is successful”. •฀If฀your฀router฀has฀the฀Virtual฀Map฀function,฀enter฀the router settings page, add the IP camera’s IP address and port number to the Virtual map list. How to use DDNSWhen using ADSL, the IP Camera will connect to the Internet through ADSL automatically. For each ADSL reconnection, your Internet Service Provider will re-assign a new IP address for the IP Camera to facilitate the access. DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server) can map the dynamic IP address of an IP Camera to a fixed domain name. Therefore, we can access the IP Camera by the fixed domain name whether the IP address changes or not. The IP address is not necessary when using the DDNS via the domain name to find your network.1. Go to the website that provides free domain names, such as http://www.dyndns.com. Register to apply for a free domain name.
Nexxt Solutions - Integrated Wireless IP Camera51 2. Enter DDNS Settings Page to enable the DDNS service, and click ‘Submit’ to reboot the camera.3. Re-log in to the Camera web browser as Administrator and enter the ”DDNS Service Settings” page to check if the DDNS Status has been successfully changed to DynDNS.4. Enter the ‘UPnP Settings’ page, the UPnP Status should be ‘Successful UPnP Session’. If not, you may enter the “Basic Network Settings” page to change the Http Port. Then click “Submit” and reboot device.5. Re-log in to the Camera homepage to check and make sure the DDNS Status and UPnP Status have been successfully configured.6. You only need to enter the domain name (Domain name+Port number http://ipcam.domain.net:81) in the IE address bar, and the browser will visit the IP Camera. Wait for several minutes and the IP Camera will access the Internet automatically.Another way the user can access the IP camera from a WAN is by using the DDNS domain name.
Nexxt Solutions - Integrated Wireless IP Camera52If the gateway settings and DDNS settings have been completed, enter the DDNS dynamic domain name (for example,http://ipcam.vicp.net, do not add www.) in the address bar of IE to access the IP Camera. If multiple IP Cameras are connected to the same router, enter DDNS dynamic domain with the port number (for example, http://ipcam.vicp.net:85) in the address bar of IE to access different IP cameras.Accessing the IP Camera from your mobile phoneCompatibility with mobile phones using 3G technology enables you to view real-time videos and change configuration settings over the internet using any supported browser (Google Browser or FireFox). Using other web browsers, you may have limited functionality, for instance when viewing or streaming live video. An IP camera can send a snapshot picture to an email account accessible via a cell phone. Cell phone surveillance also allows the user to adjust camera settings and video resolution for a mobile feed where video could then be accessible on a cell phone. There are applications that allow for advanced PT control at your fingertips, access to multiple cameras from different locations and even remote video playback. Follow the steps below to gain access to the IP Camera from your mobile phone:1. Go to mobile internet browser2. Enter http://the external IP address of your IP

Check if any LED on the network, server, hub, exchange or network card is showing signs of malfunction. In case of abnormal operation, verify that all connec-tions on the network have been done correctly.In addition, you can see the list of problems below, as it contains the solution to the most common problems encountered while setting up the camera:What do I do if I have forgotten the administrator User Name and/or password?To reset the administrator User Name and password, press and hold down the RESET button for 5 seconds. Release the power button and the User Name and password will be reset back to their factory default configuration.Default administrator User Name: adminDefault administrator password: no password
Nexxt Solutions - Integrated Wireless IP Camera54IP Address configurationCheck whether the IP address of the IP Camera server shares the same subnet as your work station: Click My Computer > Control Panel > Net-work & Dial-up Connections > LAN > Attributes >Internet Protocols (TCP/IP). Make sure they are in the same subnet when configuring the camera’s IP address manually if you are unable to access IP Camera via a web browser.Network ConfigurationDouble check to ensure that your HTTP server software is configured and running properly. If you are running any firewall software, make sure it is allowing inbound connections to port 80. Also, if you happen to be using a cable/DSL router, verify that you have set up the port forwarding feature properly (consult your router’s documentation for more information).If none of these seem to be the problem, it is also possible that your ISP is blocking inbound connections to port 80 - many ISPs have done this because of internet worms, such as Code Red. If this is the case, you will have to setup your HTTP server on an alternate port (such as 8080).Picture ProblemsVideo streaming is transmitted by the ActiveX controller. If the ActiveX controller is not installed correctly, no video image will be seen.There are two ways to solve this problem:
Nexxt Solutions - Integrated Wireless IP Camera551. Install the ‘IP Camera Tool’. ActiveX controller will be installed simultaneously (recommended).2. Download ActiveX controller and set the Security Properties of IE on the PC when you view it for the first time: Go to Tools > Internet Properties > Security > Custom Level > ActiveX control and Plug-ins. All 3 options need to be set to ‘Enable’.- Enable: Download unsigned ActiveX controls.- Enable: Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe.- Enable: Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins.Problems with network bandwidthThe image frame rate depends on the following factors:1. Network bandwidth.2. PC performance, network environment and display preference setting (brightness, theme, etc).3. The number of visitors (too many visitors will slow down the image frame rate).4. Choice of switch or hub (use a switch for multiple IP cameras rather than a hub).Pop up appears saying ‘Fail to connect to the device’This prompt will only appear when using multiple cameras. Enter the Multi-Device Settings page (log in as an Administrator) to check whether the Device settings are correct.When one of the multiple cameras disconnects, the icon changes color to yellow and the pop-up prompt “Failed to connect to the device” is displayed.
Nexxt Solutions - Integrated Wireless IP Camera56Can’t access the IP camera on the internet?There could be a number of reasons:1. ActiveX controller is not installed correctly.2. The port IP camera being used is blocked by Firewall or an anti-virus software. Use a different port number and try again.3. Port mapping failed. There are two ways available for configuring port mapping:Open the setting page of the router which the IP camera connects with to allow the UPNP function. Go to the IP camera’s ‘UPnP Settings’ to enable UPnP, making sure the “UPnP” configuration is successful.If your router has the Virtual Map function, enter the router setting page, and add the IP camera’s IP address and port number to the Virtual map list.Problems with using the Firefox browser - monitoring pages are not displayed normallyDue to security issues, the Firefox browser does not support ActiveX controls, but it provides a plug-in named IE-Tab which enables Firefox to support ActiveX controls.
