Configuring the DCS-930L without mydlink

The DCS-930L is a versatile network camera offering both video and audio monitoring. It serves as a powerful surveillance system. The DCS-930L
can be used with any wired or 802.11g/n wireless router. This section explains how to view the camera from either the Internet or from inside your
internal network.
For the basic setup of the DCS-930L, follow the steps outlined in the Quick Install Guide. After you have completed the setup of the DCS-930L as
instructed in the Quick Install Guide, you will have an operating camera with an assigned IP Address. Because you are using a router to share the
Internet with one or more PCs, the IP Address assigned to the network camera will be a local IP Address. This allows viewing within your Local Area
Network (LAN) until the router is configured to allow remote viewing of the camera over the Internet.
Components Needed:
• 1 DCS-930L Day Wi-Fi Network Camera
• 1 Ethernet Cable
• A Wired or Wireless router such as the D-Link DIR-655 Wireless Router
• Ethernet-based PC for system configuration
