Router Set-Up and Installation
The following steps generally apply to any router that you have on your network.

Configure the initial settings of the DI-614+ by following the steps outlined in the
DI-614+ Quick Installation Guide.
Access Your Router on Your Web Browser
If you have cable or DSL service, you will most likely have a dynamically assigned
WAN IP Address. 'Dynamic' means that your router's IP address can change
from time to time depending on your ISP. A dynamic WAN IP Address identifies
your router on the public network and allows it to access the Internet. To find
out what your router's WAN IP Address is, go to the Status menu on your router
and locate the WAN information for your router. As shown on the next page the
WAN IP Address will be listed. This will be the address that you will need to
type in your web browser to view your camera over the Internet.
