DCS-900W Configuration
Installing the DCS-900W Behind a Router
*IMPORTANT NOTE: Some ISPs may block access to port 80. Be sure to check
with your ISP so that you can open the appropriate ports accordingly. Some ISPs
block traffic on commonly used ports to conserve bandwidth. If your ISP does not
pass traffic on port 80, you will need to change the service port the camera uses from
80 to something else, like 800. If you are behind a residential gateway, you will need
to open the corresponding port on your gateway as well. Not all Gateways are the
same, so refer to your user´s manual for specific instructions on how to forward ports.

Viewing Your Camera

After all settings have been entered correctly, a user inside or outside your
network will have access to the camera through a standard Web browser. To
access from the Internet, simply type in the IP Address of the router given to
you by your ISP, a colon, and the port number that you gave your camera.
(Ex. http://205.163.122.96:83). To access from a computer on your local
(home) network, simply enter the local IP Address of your camera (i.e.
192.168.0.20). If using a port other than port 80, you must enter the IP
address followed by a colon and the assigned port number.
