To discover your camera, go to your Desktop and click My Network Places.  
Click the targeted camera. Then Internet Explorer will connect to this camera automatically.  
4.3 Install the camera behind a NAT Router  
Once installed, the camera is accessible on your LAN. To access the camera from the Internet  
you must configure your broadband router to allow incoming data traffic to the camera. If the  
camera is installed on the LAN with a router, then it may get a dynamic IP address from the  
DHCP server. However, if the camera wants to be accessed from the WAN, its IP address needs  
to be set up as fixed IP, also the port forwarding or Virtual Server function of router needs to be  
set up.  
However, if your NAT router supports UPnP feature, it can be very easy to achieve NAT traversal  
automatically. To do this, enable the NAT-traversal feature, which will attempt to automatically  
configure the router to allow access to the camera.  
Installing the camera with an UPnP router on your network is an easy 3–step procedure:  
Step1: Enable UPnP option of your NAT router  
Step2: Enable UPnP NAT traversal option of the camera (default)  
Step1: Enable UPnP option of your NAT router  
To use UPnP IGD function (NAT traversal), you need to make sure the UPnP function is enabled  
in your router. Most new home routers should support this function. This feature is not enabled by  
default in all routers. Please check user’s manual of your NAT router for detail.

6.1.3 HTTPS  
HTTPS: Stands for Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure  
HTTPS is a combination of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol with the SSL/TLS protocol to provide  
encrypted communication and secure identification of a network web server. HTTPS connections  
are often used for sensitive transactions in corporate information systems. The main idea of  
HTTPS is to create a secure channel over an insecure network. This ensures reasonable  
protection from eavesdroppers and man-in-the-middle attacks, provided that adequate cipher  
suites are used and that the server certificate is verified and trusted.  
¾
¾
HTTPS: To enable or disable the HTTPS service here. Note that the HTTPS function of this  
camera is not only encrypted the web content but also audio/video data. If the HTTPS is

only” is enabled, all packets from the camera will go through HTTPS only and HTTP service  
is no longer available.  
Port: Choose the HTTPS port. The default value is 443.  
6.1.4 DDNS service  
DDNS: Stands for Dynamic Domain Name Server  
Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) provides you at least one IP address which you use to  
connect to the Internet. The address you get may be static, meaning it never changes, or  
dynamic, meaning it’s likely to change periodically. Just how often it changes, depends on your  
ISP. A dynamic IP address complicates remote access since you may not know what your current  
27  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
     
WAN IP address is when you want to access your camera over the Internet. One of the possible  
solutions to the dynamic IP address problem comes in the form of a dynamic DNS service.  
A dynamic DNS service is unique because it provides a means of updating your IP address so  
that your listing will remain current when your IP address changes. There are several excellent  
You’ll need to register with the service and set up the domain name of your choice to begin using  
it. Please refer to the home page of the service for detailed instructions or refer to Appendix G for  
more information.  
If your camera is connected to xDSL directly, you might need this feature. However, if your  
camera is behind a NAT router, you will not need to enable this feature because your NAT router  
should take care of this job. As to xDSL environment, most of the users will use dynamic IP  
addresses. If users want to set up a web or a FTP server, then the Dynamic Domain Name  
Server is necessary.

6.1.5 PPPoE  
PPPoE: Stands for Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet  
A standard builds on Ethernet and Point-to-Point network protocol. It allows your camera with  
xDSL or cable connects with broadband network directly, then your camera can dial up and get a  
dynamic IP address. For more PPPoE and Internet configuration, please consult your dealer or  
ISP.  
The camera can directly connect to the xDSL, however, it should be set up on a LAN environment  
to program the PPPoE information first, and then connect to the xDSL modem. Power on again,  
then the camera will dial on to the ISP connect to the WAN through the xDSL modem.  
The procedures are  
• Connect to a LAN by DHCP or Fixed IP  
• Access the camera, and enter Setting Î Network Î PPPoE as below

6.1.6 Streaming  
RTSP is a streaming control protocol, and a starting point for negotiating transports such as RTP,  
multicast and Unicast, and for negotiating codecs. RTSP can be considered a "remote control" for  
controlling the media stream delivered by a media server. RTSP servers typically use RTP as the  
protocol for the actual transport of audio/video data.  
¾
¾
RTSP Port: Choose the RTSP port. The RTSP protocol allows a connecting client to start a  
video stream. Enter the RTSP port number to use. The default value is 554.

is 50000 to 50999. The user can specify a number between 1024 and 65535.  
6.1.7 UPnP  
UPnP is short for Universal Plug and Play, which is a networking architecture that provides  
compatibility among networking equipment, software, and peripherals. This camera is an UPnP  
enabled camera. If your operating system is UPnP enabled, the camera will automatically be  
detected and a new icon will be added to “My Network Places.” If you do not want to use the  
UPnP functionality, it can be disabled.  
In addition, this camera also provides UPnP IGD function for NAT traversal easily. Use NAT  
traversal when your camera is located on an intranet (LAN) and you wish to make it available  
from the other (WAN) side of a NAT router. With NAT traversal properly configured, all HTTP  
traffic to an external HTTP port in the NAT router will be forwarded to the camera.

6.1.8 Bonjour  
Bonjour, also known as zero-configuration networking, enables automatic discovery of computers,  
cameras, and services on IP networks. Bonjour uses industry standard IP protocols to allow  
cameras to automatically discover each other without the need to enter IP addresses or configure  
DNS servers. Specifically, Bonjour enables automatic IP address assignment without a DHCP  
server, name to address translation without a DNS server, and service discovery without a  
directory server. Bonjour is an open protocol which Apple has submitted to the IETF as part of the  
ongoing standards-creation process.

z
z
For CBR, the video bit rate is between low to high bandwidth based on different  
resolutions. The user can set the desired bit rate to match the limitation of bandwidth.  
For VBR, the user should choose the quality level to set the video quality rather than bit  
rate. The quality level is between 1 and 100. The higher value can reach the better  
quality but of course will consume higher bandwidth.  
z
z
For ECBR, the video bitrate is based on normal CBR mode. However, the target bitrate  
can be increased to max target bitrate while lots of motion in video. The max target  
bitrate will keep a pre-defined time period and then back to normal CBR bitrate.  
For EVBR, the video bitrate is based on normal VBR mode. However, the bitrate can be  
limited to the max bitrate while lots of motion in video.

Appendix A: Troubleshooting & FAQ  
Question  
Answer or Resolution  
Features  
The camera utilizes H.264, MPEG4 and JPEG triple  
compression to provide high quality images. H.264 and MPEG4  
are standards for video compression and JPEG is a standard for  
image compression.  
The video and audio  
codec is adopted in the  
camera.  
The audio codec is defined as AMR for 3GPP and G.711/G.726  
for RTSP streaming.  
The maximum number of users is limited to 20. However, it also  
depends on the total bandwidth accessed to this camera from  
clients. The maximum data throughput of the camera is around  
20~25Mbps for UDP mode and 10Mbps for HTTP mode.  
Therefore, the actual number of connected clients varies by  
streaming mode, settings of resolution, codec type, frame rate  
and bandwidth. Obviously, the performance of the each  
connected client will slow down when many users are logged on.

Appendix B: PING IP Address  
The PING (stands for Packet Internet Groper) command is used to detect whether a specific IP  
address is accessible by sending a packet to the specific address and waiting for a reply. It’s also  
a very useful tool to confirm the camera installed or if the IP address conflicts with any other  
cameras over the network.  
If you want to make sure the IP address of the camera, utilize the PING command as follows:  
z
z
Launch a Command Prompt.  
Type ping x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the camera. For example, ping  
192.168.1.103  
The replies, as illustrated below, will provide an explanation to the problem.  
If you want to detect any other cameras conflicts with the IP address of camera, also can utilize  
the PING command but you must disconnect the camera from the network first.

Appendix C: Bandwidth Estimation  
The frame rate of video transmitted from the camera depends on connection bandwidth between  
client and server, video resolution, codec type, and quality setting of server. Here is a guideline to  
help you roughly estimate the bandwidth requirements form your camera.  
The required bandwidth depends on content of video source. The slow motion video will produce  
smaller bit rate generally and fast motion will produce higher bit rate vice versa. Actual results  
generated by the camera may be varying.

Audio streaming also takes bandwidth around 32kbps. Some xDSL/Cable modem upload speeds  
could not even reach up to 128 kbps. Thus, you may not be able to receive good quality video  
while also streaming audio on a 128 kbps or lower connection. Even though the upload speed is  
more than 128kbps, for optimal video performance, disabling audio streaming will get better video  
performance.

Appendix E: Configure Port Forwarding Manually  
The camera can be used with a router. If the camera wants to be accessed from the WAN, its IP  
address needs to be set up as fixed IP address, also the port forwarding or Virtual Server function  
of router needs to be set up. This camera supports UPnP traversal function. Therefore, the user  
could use this feature to configure port forwarding of NAT router first. However, if the user needs  
to configure port forwarding manually, please follow the steps as below:  
Manually installing the camera with a router on your network is an easy 3–step procedure as  
following:  
(1) Assign a local/fixed IP address to your camera  
(2) Access the Router with Your Web browser  
(3) Open/Configure Virtual Server Ports of Your Router  
(1) Assign a local/fixed IP address to your camera  
The camera must be assigned a local and fixed IP Address that allows it to be recognized by the  
router. Manually set up the camera with a fixed IP address, for example, 192.168.0.100.  
(2) Access the Router with Your Web browser  
The following steps generally apply to any router that you have on your network. The TP-LINK  
TL-WR841ND is used as an example to clarify the configuration process. Configure the initial  
settings of the router by following the steps outlined in the router’s Quick Installation Guide.  
If you have cable or DSL service, you will most likely have a dynamically assigned WAN IP  
Address. ‘Dynamic’ means that your router’s WAN 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 screen on your router and locate the WAN information for your router. As shown on the  
following 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.  
71  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
Your WAN IP Address will be listed here.  
Note: Because a dynamic WAN IP can change from time to time depending on your ISP, you  
may want to obtain a Static IP address from your ISP. A Static IP address is a fixed IP address  
that will not change over time and will be more convenient for you to use to access your camera  
from a remote location. If you could not get a Static IP address from your ISP or DDNS is a  
solution alternatively.  
(3) Open/set Virtual Server Ports to enable remote image viewing  
The firewall security features built into the router and most routers prevent users from accessing  
72  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
the video from the camera over the Internet. The router connects to the Internet over a series of  
numbered ports. The ports normally used by the camera are blocked from access over the  
Internet. Therefore, these ports need to be made accessible over the Internet. This is  
accomplished using the Virtual Server function on the router. The Virtual Server ports used by  
the camera must be opened through the router for remote access to your camera. Virtual Server  
is accessed by clicking on ForwardingVirtual Server.  
Follow these steps to configure your router’s Virtual Server settings.  
To set up a virtual server entry:  
1. Click the Add New… button, the next screen will pop-up.  
2. Select the service port you want to use from the Common Service Port list. If the Common  
Service Port list does not have the service that you want to use, type the service port  
number or service port range (e.g., 80) in the Service Port box.  
3. Type your camera’s local IP address (e.g., 192.168.0.198) in the IP Address box.  
4. Select the All protocol.  
5. Select the Enable to enable the virtual server.  
6. Click the Save button.  
Important: Some ISPs block access to port 80. Be sure to check with your ISP so that you can  
open the appropriate ports accordingly. If your ISP does not pass traffic on port 80, you will need  
to change the port the camera uses from 80 to something else, such as 8080. Not all routers are  
the same, so refer to your user manual for specific instructions on how to open ports.  
Then the camera can be accessed from WAN by the router’s WAN IP Address.  
By now, you have finished your entire PC configuration for this camera.

Appendix F: DDNS Application  
1. Preface  
If you have a Cable modem or xDSL, this is a great way to host your own camera or other  
(Note: This domain must be registered with Internic via registration authorities such as  
Network Solutions, DirectNIC, Register.com etc). Your domain name's dynamic IP address is  
automatically tracked by a DDNS server.  
Host your own camera and much more no matter what your computer's IP address may be  
and even if you have dialup, DSL or cable modem internet connection where your computer's  
IP address changes all the time!! DDNS service supports all top level domain names including  
but not limited to .com, .net, .org, .to, .uk etc.  
2. Ethernet Network Environment  
Normally, DDNS service is only necessary for the users that could only obtain dynamic IP  
addresses. As to the users that could obtain the static valid IP address, they do not usually  
have to apply the DDNS service. Before we decide if DDNS is necessary for the users, we  
have to check what kind of Ethernet network environment we have to install our Networked  
camera on.  
(1) Environment of Fixed Valid IP Network  
If users could obtain valid IP addresses, they could save the effort to apply DDNS service.  
Because the IP address in this environment is fixed, users could input the IP address or
