Wireless Installation Considerations
Your D-Link Wireless Network Camera lets you access your network using a wireless connection from anywhere within the
operating range of your wireless network. However, the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects
that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and
background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic
guidelines:
1. Minimize the number of walls and ceilings between your router and other network devices (such as your network
camera) - each wall or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range by 3-98 feet (1-30 meters).
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (half a meter), at a 45-degree
angle appears to be almost 3 feet thick (1 meter). At a 2-degree angle, it looks over 46 feet thick (about 14 meters).
Position your devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for
better reception.
3. Building materials make a dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may weaken the wireless signal. Try
to position your access points, wireless routers, and other networking devices where the signal passes through
drywall or open doorways. Materials and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh
tanks), mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.
4. Keep your product at least 3-6 feet (1-2 meters) away from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones or other radio frequency sources (such as microwave ovens), your
wireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4 GHz phone base is as
far away from your wireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone is not in use.

Section 2 - Installation
There are three ways to set up your camera:
Zero Conguration Setup: If you have a mydlink-enabled router (D-Link Cloud Router), this is the easiest way to set
up your camera. Refer to “Zero Conguration Setup” on page 16.
Camera Setup Wizard: If you do not have a mydlink-enabled router, use the Camera Setup Wizard to guide you through
installation and initial conguration of your camera. Refer to “Camera Setup Wizard” on page 20.
Manual Hardware Installation: This section shows you how to manually set up your camera. However, in order to use
the mydlink features of your camera, you will still need to run the Camera Setup Wizard. Refer to “Manual Hardware
Installation” on page 21.
Installation
Note: If you experience issues registering this device with your mydlink account, or If you purchased an open box or resold
unit, perform a hard reset by pressing and holding the reset button on the device for 10 seconds while the device is powered
on. If you are returning the device to the place of purchase, please perform the hard reset procedure to clear the
device of any personal data.
15D-Link DCS-5029L User Manual
Section 2 - Installation
Zero Conguration Setup
The Zero Conguration Setup will only work with a registered Cloud Router an an active mydlink account. Your Cloud Router
will automatically assign your network settings (both wired and wireless) to your camera, and add the camera to your mydlink
account. If you do not have a D-Link Cloud Router, you can use the Setup Wizard. Refer to “Camera Setup Wizard” on page 20.
Connect the Power Cable and Ethernet Cable
Step 1
Attach the power supply to the power receptor located on the back of the DCS-5029L
and connect it to a wall outlet or surge protector. Power is conrmed when the Power
LED is lit.
Step 2
Connect the included Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port located on the back of
the DCS-5029L. Plug the other end into an available (LAN) port on your D-Link
Cloud Router.
Note: If you later decide to use your camera wirelessly, you will be able to remove the
cable after the Zero Conguration Setup is complete and place the camera within your
wireless network.
If you prefer to initiate a wireless connection with your router, you can use WPS
(Wi-Fi Protected Setup). Refer to “WPS - Push Button Setup” on page 19.

Add Your Camera to Your mydlink Account
Step 3
From a computer connected to the Internet, open a Web browser (e.g., Internet
Explorer, Chrome, Firefox, or Safari) and log in to your mydlink account.
Step 4
The mydlink page will automatically check for new devices. Once mydlink
detects your camera, a notice will appear that says, Zero Conguration (at
the bottom of the screen). Click the notication to continue.
17D-Link DCS-5029L User Manual
Section 2 - Installation
Step 5
A conrmation request will appear with a summary of the conguration
details. Make a note of the details and click Yes to add the camera to your
account. Your setup is complete!
Note: If you experience issues registering this device with your mydlink account,
perform a hard reset by pressing and holding the reset button on the device for
10 seconds while the device is powered on.
Next you will see the mydlink Live View* for your camera. The screen will look
similar to the screenshot on the right.
Note: If you used an Ethernet connection and now want to connect your camera
to your router wirelessly, you can simply disconnect the Ethernet cable and
move the camera to the preferred location. Your router’s wireless settings were
automatically transferred to the camera during Zero Conguration Setup, so no
further conguration is required.
If you are interested in learning about advanced conguration of your camera,
you can skip to “Conguration” on page 28.
*Note: If the live image is blurry, you can adjust the focus by rotating the manual
focus adjustment ring that surrounds the camera lens. If you notice a white haze
when viewing in night vision mode, the night vision light on the camera may be
reecting o a nearby surface. Try repositioning the camera.

Section 2 - Installation
WPS - Push Button Setup
If you have a D-Link Cloud Router and an active mydlink account, the easiest way to create a secure wireless connection is
by using the WPS Button on the back of the DCS-5029L. After you complete Step 3 below, you can register your camera with
mydlink. Refer to “Add Your Camera to Your mydlink Account” on page 17.
If you do not have a D-Link Cloud Router, use an Ethernet connection as shown under “Manual Hardware Installation” on page
21. WPS setup only establishes a wireless connection, so in order to use the mydlink features of your camera, you will still
need to run the Camera Setup Wizard (proceed to the next page).
To create a WPS connection:
Step 1
Make sure the camera is plugged in, then press and hold the WPS button on the
side of the camera for ten seconds. The blue WPS status LED will start blinking.
Step 2
Press the WPS button on your router within 60 seconds. The WPS button is
usually on the front or side of your router. If you are not sure where the WPS
button is located on your router, refer to your router’s User Manual. On some
routers, you may need to log in to the web interface and click on an on-screen
button to activate the WPS feature.
Step 3
Allow up to one minute to congure. The DCS-5029L will automatically create
a secure wireless connection to your router. The blue LED will ash and your
camera will reboot.

Mounting Instructions
To mount your camera on a wall or ceiling, please follow the steps below.
1. Place the arm mount where you want to position the camera and use a pencil to mark
the holes. Make sure you allow adequate space for the necessary cables to be routed.
The camera can be mounted to either side of the camera shoe.
2. Depending on the material of the wall or ceiling, use a 6mm drill bit to drill two holes
where you marked. If the wall is made out of concrete, after drilling the holes, insert the
plastic anchors, and then insert the screws.
3. The power and Ethernet cables can be concealed behind the mounting bracket. When
you run the cables through the channel, secure them with the built-in guides. Leave
enough cable length protruding from the top to connect the cables to the camera.
We suggest that you congure the camera before mounting.
4. Fasten the arm mount to the wall using the screws provided. Lightly pull on the arm
mount to make sure it is fastened securely.
Do not overtighten the screws as this may crack the mounting bracket.
5. Align the camera base mounting guides with the camera shoe and thumbscrew on the
arm mount. Tighten the thumbscrew to lock the camera in place.
