3.3 Basic Network Settings

Here you can fix the camera’s IP address; means set the static IP address of camera manually.
You can also do the same settings from IP Camera Tool. (Figure 2.3)
There are some good reasons to give the camera a static IP. The factory default setting is DHCP, this means
that the network router will give the Camera an IP address itself for easy setup. The problem is that after a
camera or network power loss the router may decide to give the camera a different IP address than the last
time. If you want to login to the camera not using the IP Tool you don`t know the camera`s (new) IP address.

If you don’t know the DNS Server, you can set it the same as Gateway.

If the router supports DHCP function, you can choose “Obtain IP from DHCP Server” to get dynamic IP.

Figure 6.1
Http Port: In most cases your Internet Service Provider blocks this port(80), you may change it to another port
number such as 85 or 86 or any number above 80. Make sure that if you have more than one camera it might
be useful to give each camera a unique port number, but it`s not necessary to do this.

3.4 Wireless Lan Settings

Î

Figure 6.2

1. Make sure the router is wireless router.

2. Make sure the Wi-Fi antenna installed.

Manual version 1 – March 2012 36 IP Vision 58

3. Determine whether there is encryption on the WLAN of router, if there is encryption, note the key somewhere
as we need it in the following steps.

Extra information:

Encryption is another word for password and security of the wireless network, most routers will have encryption
these days (and should be) so other people cannot brake in to your network. Some routers have a sticker on
the bottom with the factory username and password, other ones don`t have a password, and the password
can also be set by the user or mechanic. There is a very handy website with allot of router brand information
like default IP address, default username and password etc. Please note we only refer to this website, we do
not maintain or support it. The website is: http://portforward.com/

Click “Router List” and find your brand and

type to find more handy details about your router if you can’t find them anywhere else.

In the next screenshots we take a Linksys router as an example, here Portforward.com shows the default
username and password as well as the default IP address to visit the router settings menu.
Please note that Portforward.com is a website designed to tell you how to forward ports in your router.
Information may vary from type to type of routers. Lets proceed shall we?

3.6 UPnP Settings

If we want to be able to see our camera live video from a computer outside our network, for example when
we are at work, we have to do some advanced settings in our router. For most people this will be a difficult
step, but we will try to help you out. UPnP stands for Universal plug n Play device. UPnP will do the port
forwarding in the router for us, so we don`t need to do this manually. In order to use this function we need to
have a router that is capable of using UPnP devices. Please make sure your router supports UPnP (please
check the manual of your router to determine if it supports UPnP), if not please skip the next step and continue
with step 3.7 DDNS Service Settings. By default UPnP is most likely disabled in your router. Please refer to the
router manual to enable UPnP.

Manual version 1 – March 2012 43 IP Vision 58

Click Network > UPnP Settings to choose Using UPnP to Map Port:

Î

Figure 6.8
Select it and click Submit, then the camera will support UPnP port forwarding automatically.
It’s helpful for using DDNS (viewing live video from outside our network). As soon as you have enabled UPnP in
you router, please proceed with the next steps.

Figure 6.9
NOTE: UPnP is only for port forwarding. It relates to the security settings of your router, make sure the UPnP
function of your router is enabled, before you continue. If your router does not support UPnP, it may show error
information, therefore we recommend you to do port forwarding manually in your router, as explained in step

3.7.3.

Manual version 1 – March 2012 44 IP Vision 58

3.7 DDNS Service Settings

Î

Figure 7.0
Select Network > DDNS Service Settings in the Tree View on the left (see picture above)

There are 2 options:
Manufacturer’s DDNS: This domain is provided with the Camera (see bottom of the camera). Choose ‘submit’.
In most cases you will need to login to the camera again. You can use the IPCamera tool for this or enter the
Camera`s IP address in your web browser. After you have done this, please skip the next step and continue
with step 3.7.1

Third Party DDNS: You might have a DDNS server already, then it is useful to take the next steps.

This domain is provided by the third party, such as Dyndns, Oray, 3322 etc.

Figure 7.1

Third Party DDNS

If you use third party DDNS, please choose the server you use, such as “3322.org” or “dyndns.org” as below:

Figure 7.2

Manual version 1 – March 2012 45 IP Vision 58

Figure 7.3

You have to register an account firstly, keep the user, password, host, then input it.

NOTE: Only one DDNS can be chosen, for example, if you use the manufacturer’s DDNS, the third party one

won’t work, if you use the third party DDNS, the manufacturer’s one won’t work.

3.7.1 To change the camera’s port.

Open the IP Camera Tool from your Desktop select the ebode camera (it will turn blue) and right-mouse click
and choose network configuration. The default port of camera is “80”, please change “80” to any other one
you like, such as “81”, “100”, “8091” etc. Click “OK”, the camera will reboot, wait about 30 seconds.

Figure 7.4

Manual version 1 – March 2012 46 IP Vision 58

3.7.2 DDNS Status
After all these steps are done you should be able to access your camera from your mobile device or tablet
(using an app). You can also access your camera via your computers’ or laptops’ web browser using the
DDNS address.

Before you can access it, you first need to check the DDNS status from the camera. Login to the camera and
choose “System”>”Device Info”. Please check that ‘DDNS Status’ shows ‘succeed’ followed by the address.
This is illustrated in the image below. It is important that you get the address link of DDNS to access the camera
from anywhere in the world. You can also find this address on the bottom of your camera. Write this address
somewhere or add is as your Favourite in your web browser to visit the camera from outside the network (from
your mobile device for example at work, school, on the road etc.)

Figure 7.8

Congratulations! You’ve know successfully installed your IP camera. It is always a good idea to ask friends or
family to login to the camera from their own place. Don’t forget to change the password of the camera
afterwards! Please save this manual for additional features. The following steps in this manual are only needed
if the camera is not accessible from outside the network, or if you want to use additional features.

If it didn’t succeed, it is most likely that UPnP is not supported by your router, please set the port forwarding
manually (as explained in the next step). You can always leave UPnP on, whether it’s working or not. If DDNS
status still doesn’t show ‘succeed’ please check the FAQ, Chapter 4, at the back of this manual or our website

www.ebodeelectronics.eu

.

3.7.3 Set Port Forwarding in the router (Manually)

ADVISORY: We highly recommend you to give the ebode camera a static IP address. This ensures you that the

camera will always have the same IP address, and reduces the risk of not being able to access and view the
camera by your mobile device. To give your camera a static IP address, please check step 3.3 in this manual.

This is the most important step. Please check the ‘extra information’ in step 3.4 for more information about
routers and port forwarding.

In order to get the DDNS to work, you have to forward your cameras port in the router. You need:

- IP address of the camera

- Port of the camera

- Default gateway IP address of the router

- Username and password of the router

Manual version 1 – March 2012 47 IP Vision 58

The first two items can be found if you start up the IP Camera tool from your desktop. As an example the IP
address from the below image is 192.168.1.16 and the port is 81.

REMEMBER: Your camera should not be on Port 80. If it is, please go to step 3.7.1 to change the port number.

How to discover the default gateway IP address in MS Windows Vista, 7: Click ‘Start’, and type in ‘cmd’, press
enter. (see image below)

Next, type in ‘ipconfig’ and press enter. Please refer to below image.

Manual version 1 – March 2012 48 IP Vision 58

Finally, you can see the default gateway address, as shown in the image below.

Now we know the default gateway address we only need to know the username and password of your router.
Some routers have a sticker on the bottom with the factory username and password, other ones don`t have a
password, and the password can also be set by the user or mechanic. There is a very handy website with allot
of router brand information like default IP address, default username and password etc. Please note we only
refer to this website, we do not maintain or support it. The website is: http://portforward.com/

Click “Router
List” and find your brand and type to find more handy details about your router if you can’t find them
anywhere else. For more information on portforward.com, please go to step 3.4.

We know have all information to get the DDNS working, we will show you how to do this.

1. Open your web browser and type in the default gateway address and press enter.

Manual version 1 – March 2012 49 IP Vision 58

2. Enter the username and password from the router

3. The next screen is the interface of your router. Please note that each brand of router has its own interface.

This is just an example.

4. Select NAT Setup. Please note that for each brand this can have a different name for NAT setup.

Portforward.com contains more information about most router brands.

5. Please choose ‘Configure Port Redirection Table’

Manual version 1 – March 2012 50 IP Vision 58

6. Now we have to let the router know, on which port the camera is located.

Service name: give the camera a recognizable name, i.e. ebode IP Cam
Protocol: Select TCP
Public Port: You’ve checked this earlier on, please enter the right port for your camera (you can always
use the IPCamera Tool to look it up, as explained at the beginning of this chapter)
Private IP: Is the IP address of the camera. Again, you can use the IPCamera Tool to look it up
Private Port: This is the same as public port
Please tick the box for ‘active’
Then press ok

Manual version 1 – March 2012 51 IP Vision 58

Now go to the DDNS Status from step 3.7.2 and check if it says ‘succeed’. You should now be able to login to
the camera from another location.

However, we showed you just one example, there are many different kinds of routers, therefore it’s difficult to
show fixed steps for each router, but here are some other samples of different router’s port forwarding settings.
Remember, portforwarding.com is a very useful source of information.

4.1.2 Subnet doesn’t match, double click to change
If IP Camera Tool shows error information “Subnet doesn’t match, double click to change!” Please choose
Obtain IP from DHCP server. (Figure 2.2)
If it still show this error after obtain IP from DHCP server. Please check local area connection of your
computer, change subnet, gateway of the camera. Keep them in the same subnet of your computer.
(Figure 2.3)

4.1.3 IP Address configuration
Check whether IP address of the IP camera server shares the same subnet as your work station: Click My
Computer >Control Panel> Network & Dial-up Connections > LAN > Attributes >Internet Protocols (TCP/IP), and

check IP Address and Subnet Mask. Make sure they are in the same subnet when configuring the camera’s IP
address manually.

4.1.4 Can’t access IP camera in internet
There are some reasons:
1 ActiveX controller is not installed correctly (see more details: Figure2.9~Figure3.1).
2 The port that the camera is using is blocked by your Firewall or Anti-virus software. Please change to
another port number and try again. (Figure3.2)
3 Port forwarding is not successful (see more details: Figure7.5~Figure7.9)
Double check these settings and make sure they are correct.

4.1.5 IP Camera Tool could not find camera’s IP
Make sure the camera is connected to its power supply and the power supply is plugged in.
Check if the network cable is not loose.
Make sure DHCP is enabled in your router, don’t enable MAC address filter.
Make sure that firewall or anti-virus software does not block the camera. You can add the camera as a trusted
site in your firewall or anti-virus software.

4.1.6 UPnP always failed
UPnP only contains port forwarding in our recent software. Sometimes, it might fail to do port forwarding
automatically because of firewall or anti-virus software. It also relates to your router’s security settings. So we

Manual version 1 – March 2012 69 IP Vision 58

recommend you do port forwarding manually. You can view your camera via the Internet successfully after
you do port forwarding manually in your router.

4.1.7 Couldn’t find the shortcut on desktop after install IP camera tool
If you use Windows 7 or Vista, and you could not find the shortcut on desktop after installing the IP camera tool,
please check if the path of the tool port to is correct.
For example, was it was pointing to C:\Windows\System32\IPCamera.exe

.

Please fix this by pointing the shortcut to the correct path C:\Windows\SysWOW64\IPCamera.exe

. After this

you should be able to use the shortcut without any problems.

4.1.8 I can’t change the record path
When you use Windows7 or Vista, you may be not able to change the record path for the security settings of
computer.

1. Please add the camera as a trusted site to solve this issue.
The step is: “IE browser→Tool→Internet Proper→Security→Trusted sites→Sites→Add”.

2. You can also run the IE as administrator; input the IP address of the camera manually.

4.1.9 I can’t find multi-device settings and record icon
Record and multi-device function are controlled by activeX controller.
So if you use Safari, Firefox, Google chrome, it is impossible to use these functions.

4.1.10 Camera can not connect wireless
If your camera could not connect wirelessly after you set wireless settings and unplug the Network cable:
Please check whether your settings are correct. (Details: Wireless LAN settings).
If the camera can’t connect wirelessly it is usually because of wrong settings.
Double check the SSID, Encryption share key, Channel, should be the same as your wireless router.
Share key should not contain special characters, only letters and numbers.
Don’t enable MAC address filter.

4.1.11 I can’t see other cameras which in multi-device when remote access
If you want to view all the cameras in your WAN. Make sure that each camera you add in multi-device settings
can be logged-in using DDNS name and port number. Use DDNS domain name to fill in the host checkbox, not
camera’s LAN IP. Double check your settings. (Details: Set Multi-Device for WAN).

4.1.12 I only see black screen or unusual code when remotely logged in
