www.foscam.com www.foscam.com Enter the camera’s url , here take https://192.168.8.129:443 for example Click this button to add it Figure 2.6 2.2 Access the Camera in WAN 2.2.1 Static IP Addresses Users who have static IP addresses do not need to set DDNS service settings for remote access. 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.
www.foscam.com www.foscam.com Figure 2.7 Access your IP Camera from the Internet 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. 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.
www.foscam.com www.foscam.com this means that the camera’s HTTP port is 88. You can change port 88 to another port if you’d 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. Change the default http no.88 to another one. How to assign a different HTTP Port No.
www.foscam.com www.foscam.com 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.
www.foscam.com www.foscam.com Fill the HTTP Port of the camera in the columns of External Port and Internal Port. Example: 2000 Fill in this section with the LAN IP of the camera; we would enter “100” for our example. Assign a name for the port forward setting here . Figure 2.11 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.
www.foscam.com www.foscam.com Please set DDNS Settings within the camera by hostname, a user name and password you’ve got from www.no-ip.com Take hostname ycxgwp.no-ip.info, user name foscam, password foscam2012 for example.
