When you have finished connecting the camera using the LAN IP address and port forwarding, you can access the camera directly from the Internet using the WAN IP address and port number. How to Obtain the WAN IP address from a public website To obtain your WAN IP address, enter the following URL in your browser:

http://www.whatismyip.com.The webpage at this address will show you the current WAN IP. Access your IP Camera from the Internet Figure 2.7 You can access the IP Camera from the Internet (remote access). Enter the WAN IP address and port number in your standard browser. For example, you would enter http://

183.37.28.254:85 Note Make sure port forwarding is successful. You can do port forwarding two ways. 1) Login to your router to enable the UPNP function. You can then login to the camera as administrator, choose Network, and then choose UPnP to enable UPnP. Make sure that the status of UPnP reads UPnP Successful on the Device Status page. 2) Do port (HTTP port and Media port) forwarding manually. (See Figure 2.11 for further details) If your router has a Virtual Server, it can do port forwarding. Add the cameras LAN IP and port Shenzhen Foscam Shenzhen Tel:Tel: 8686 755755 2674 Foscam Intelligent 2674 5668 5668 Fax:Fax: 8686 755755 2674 2674 5168 5168 Intelligent Technology Technology Co.,Co., Limited Limited 11 11 wwww.foscam.co ww.foscam.comm which you had set earlier to your routers port forwarding settings. Note: If you plug the camera into a router, it will have a dynamic IP address and you need to set DDNS service settings to view it remotely. 2.2.2 Dynamic IP Addresses DDNS is a service that allows your IP Camera, especially when assigned with a dynamic IP address, to have a fixed host and domain name. This means that even though your WAN IP address is constantly changing, you will have a fixed hostname you can use to access your cameras at all times. You can access the camera directly from the Internet using the hostname and port number. What is the HTTP Port no.?

1) Default HTTP Port is 88 All cameras have the default HTTP port of 88. For example, if the LAN IP link of the camera is http://192.168.8.102:88, this means that the cameras HTTP port is 88. You can change port 88 to another port if youd like such as 2000 or 8090, which will not be conflict with other existing ports like 25, 21,10000.Here you can set the port no. between 1 and 65535. 2) Change the default http no.88 to another one. How to assign a different HTTP Port No. and fixed the LAN IP of the camera by the IP Camera Tool Step 1: Open the IP Camera Tool, select the camera you would like to change the port of, right click on the IP address, and click on Network Configuration, this brings up the network configuration box as shown in Figure 2.8 and 2.9. Shenzhen Foscam Shenzhen Tel:Tel: 8686 755755 2674 Foscam Intelligent 2674 5668 5668 Fax:Fax: 8686 755755 2674 2674 5168 5168 Intelligent Technology Technology Co.,Co., Limited Limited Select which camera youd like to change the port for, and right click 12 12 wwww.foscam.co ww.foscam.comm Modify the Http Port. Enter the Username and password, click OK. Figure 2.8 Figure 2.9 Step 2: Enter the username and password of the Administrator (default username is admin with a blank password), and click OK to apply changes. Step 3: Wait around 10 seconds, youll see that the cameras LAN IP address has changed. In our example it was changed to 2000, so we see http://192.168.8.102:2000 in IP Camera Tool. Also, the LAN IP address is now fixed at a static IP address of http://192.168.8.102:2000. This IP address will not change even if the camera is powered off and back on, the camera will remain on this LAN IP address. This is very important that a static LAN IP address is set, or you may have problems later with remote access and seeing the camera remotely if the camera loses power and reconnects on a different LAN IP address. Make sure you set a static LAN IP address!

Figure 2.10 What is Port forwarding?

If you have never done port forwarding before, you can open and view the following link to understand the basic concept. Port forwarding allows for outside connections to access a specific device on your network from anywhere in the world. Every router automatically blocks Shenzhen Foscam Shenzhen Tel:Tel: 8686 755755 2674 Foscam Intelligent 2674 5668 5668 Fax:Fax: 8686 755755 2674 2674 5168 5168 Intelligent Technology Technology Co.,Co., Limited Limited 13 13 wwww.foscam.co ww.foscam.comm any incoming connections for safety purposes. Using port forwarding, you are telling your router to allow a connection through a certain port (you can think of it as a gateway) into your router. You set this port to a specific device, in our case an IP Camera, so it can be accessed from anywhere in the world. Click this link to learn more about port forwarding: http://portforward.com/help/portforwarding.htm How do we configure Port Forwarding?

For this section, we will be using an example:

Lets say the cameras LAN IP address is http://192.168.8.100:2000 Step 1: Login to the router, and go to your routers port forwarding or port triggering menu. Sometimes this is also under the name of Virtual Server or NAT. Using the Linksys brand router as an example, we would log into the router, and go to the Applications & Gaming menu. We would then click on the Single Port Forwarding sub-menu. Step 2: Create a new column using the LAN IP address & HTTP Port of the camera within the router as shown below, then push OK or Submit to save your settings:

Fill the HTTP Port of the camera in the columns of External Port and Internal Port. Example: 2000 Assign a name for the port forward setting here Figure 2.11 Shenzhen Foscam Shenzhen Tel:Tel: 8686 755755 2674 Foscam Intelligent 2674 5668 5668 Fax:Fax: 8686 755755 2674 2674 5168 5168 Intelligent Technology Technology Co.,Co., Limited Limited Fill in this section with the LAN IP of the camera; we would enter 100 for our example. 14 14 wwww.foscam.co ww.foscam.comm First method :

Use the embedded DDNS to access the camera via the Internet Each Foscam camera has an embedded unique DDNS domain name, the format of this domain name is xxxxxx.myfoscam.org. On the bottom of the camera, you can see the domain name sticker with this information on it. For example, we can use test09.myfoscam.org. In the camera, click Settings at the top, click Network on the left, then click DDNS to get to the DDNS settings page. Here you can see the unique domain name of your camera. Figure 2.12 Now you can use http://Domain name + HTTP Port to access the camera via the Internet. Take hostname test09.myfoscam.org and HTTP Port of 2000 for example, the URL link to access the camera via the Internet would be http:// test09.myfoscam.org:2000. Second method :

Use the Third party DDNS to access the camera via the Internet Step 1, Please go to the third party DDNS website(such as www.no-ip.com) to create a free hostname. Step 2, DO DDNS Service Settings within the Camera Please set DDNS Settings within the camera by hostname, a user name and password youve got from www.no-ip.com Take hostname ycxgwp.no-ip.info, user name foscam, password foscam2012 for example. Firstly, goes to option of DDNS Settings on the administrator panel. Shenzhen Foscam Shenzhen Tel:Tel: 8686 755755 2674 Foscam Intelligent 2674 5668 5668 Fax:Fax: 8686 755755 2674 2674 5168 5168 Intelligent Technology Technology Co.,Co., Limited Limited 15 15 Secondly, select No-Ip as a server. wwww.foscam.co ww.foscam.comm fill foscam as DDNS user, Thirdly, fill ycxgwp.no-ip.info as DDNS domain and server URL, Then click save to make effect. The camera will restart and to take the DDNS settings effective. fill password foscam2012 as DDNS password, login the camera, and go to option of Device Status on the Fourthly, after the restart, administrator panel, and check if the DDNS status is successful. If failed, please double check if you have input the correct hostname, user name, and password, and try to redo the settings. Note If you have set Third Party DDNS successfully ,the Foscam Domain Name will be invalid. The Third Party DDNS and the Foscam Domain Name cannot work at the same time, the last time you configured will take effect.

Resolution: The camera supports two types: 720P, VGA. The higher the resolution is, the clearer video will become. But the code flux will become larger too, and it will take up more bandwidth. Bit rate: Generally speaking, the larger the bit rate is, the clearer video will become. But the bit rate configuration should combine well with the network bandwidth. When the bandwidth is very narrow, and bit rate is large, that will lead to video can not play well. Frame rate: Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth. When the video format is 50Hz, the maximum frame rate is 25 fps. When the video format is 60Hz, the maximum frame rate is 30 fps. You should lower frame rate when the bandwidth is limited. Normally, when the frame rate above 15, you can achieve fluently video. Key Frame Interval: The time between last key frame and next key frame. The shorter the duration, the more likely you will get a better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth consumption.
