Steps:
1. Connect the network camera to the router.
2. Assign a LAN IP address, the subnet mask and the gateway. Refer to
Wired Connection Setup
3. Save the LAN IP address configured in Step 2 as the static IP in the router.
4. Set port mapping, e.g., 80, 8000, and 554 ports. The steps for port mapping vary according to the
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.
