Trouble with Remote Viewing on Browser (WebVuer)

You can view your camera video remotely over the Internet. If you have problem in remote viewing, refer to
the section below for preliminary troubleshooting.
IP Camera
The figure above shows a typical connection setup in which:
• the IP camera has a static virtual IP address of 192.168.0.1
• the WAN IP address at the IP camera site is 61.220.20.16.
• the client (user) is trying to receive the video / audio stream remotely.
To successfully view the live video streamed from the IP camera, you need to:
1. Ensure that the camera's image quality setting stays within the bandwidth limit of your local network.
You can check the camera's image quality setting in [Setup] > [Video]. If your quality setting exceeds
your upstream bandwidth limit, you will experience stuttering video or black and blank screen.
2. Check the ports used by the camera in [Setup] > [Network] and note down the HTTP and RTSP server
ports, in this case, ports 80 and 554 respectively.
3. Enable port forwarding on the router your camera connects to and allow traffic on ports the camera is
using. You may need to consult the manufacturer of your router for setting details. Note that your router
may require a reboot after port forwarding is set. The following figure exemplifies the router settings you
need to make in order to remotely view the IP camera.
