Users can choose to connect to the IP Camera with fixed or dynamic (DHCP) IP
address. The IP Camera also provides PPPoE support for users who connect to
the network via PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE).
General
 Get IP address automatically (DHCP)
The camera's default setting is <Use fixed IP address>. Please refer to User's
Manual for login with the default IP address.
If select <Get IP address automatically>, after the IP Camera restarts, users can
search it through the installer program: DeviceSearch.exe, which can be found in
"DeviceSearch" folder in the supplied CD.
NOTE: Please make the record of the IP Camera's MAC address, which can be
found in the label of the camera, for identification in the future.
 Use fixed IP address
To setup static IP address, select <Use fixed IP address> and move the cursor to
the IP address blank and insert the new IP address, ex. 192.168.7.123; then go to
the Default gateway (explained later) blank and change the setting, ex.
192.168.7.254. Click on <Save> to confirm the new setting.
When using static IP address to login to the IP Camera, users can access it either
through "DeviceSearch" software (refer to User's Manual) or input the IP address
in the URL bar and click on <Enter>.
