Remote View Setup
Follow these instructions carefully to enable remote view capability. Remotely
viewing the WUSB software requires an "always on" broadband internet
connection, a router, and port forwarding.
Open a Router Port
Opening a port on your router allows WUSB to broadcast your live video feed to
the internet. It is recommended to open a port that is not a common port, such as
port 30000. There are several options for opening a router port. It is recommended to contact your router manufacturer's technical support or refer to your router
user manual. If contacting the router manufacturer, tell them you need to open a
router port for remote view of a IP security camera. They should walk you
through doing so. If you're using a broadband router (a combination modem/hub)
provided by your internet service provider (ISP), contact your ISP for instructions
on opening a port. Another option is to visit http://www.portforward.com to find
step-by-step instructions on port forwarding for your particular router. There are
many ads and nuances to this web site, so follow these instructions carefully:
Scroll to the bottom, find, and click on your router brand and model. In the top right corner
of the screen, click the words “Click here to skip this advertisement…” Click the orange
“Default Guide” (located in the last sentence in the upper paragraph) - Here you will find
step-by-step instructions on opening a port on your router. Once again, when you open a
port, use an uncommon port, such as 30000. You may also open a range of ports, e.g.
30000-30005 if necessary.
Find Your External IP Address/Verify Your Open Router Port
There are many sites that can provide you your external IP address. YouGetSignal.com
enables you to find your external IP address and verify the port you opened in your router
is truly open. Your port must be open in order use to remote view.
Go to http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ (see image above). You will see
your external IP address in the “Remote Address” field. Type the port number you opened
in the “Port Number” field. Click Check. If it tells you the port is open then port forward
was executed successfully. If it tells you that the port is closed the port was not opened
successfully. Double check your router settings as a port must be opened in order to use
remote view.

View Live Video Feed Remotely
Open a web browser (Internet Explorer), in the Address Bar of your computer type in
your external IP address and open port number. Use the following format: http://
IPADDRESS:PORT. As an example, you would use http://12.34.567.89:30000 for the
address and port number in image on pg 6.
Notes
The view that you will see remotely is the current view that you have showing in the software. e.g. if you are showing channel 2 (camera 2) in the software, this is the view you
will see when logging in remotely. If you want to see all 4 cameras from your remote
location, make sure you have quad-view displayed.
Capture software must be running or it will not broadcast your video feed.
"Remote-View" is exactly that - a live view from a remote computer. This will not work
from a computer that is on the same network.
Occasionally, your ISP may change your external IP address. It may also change after a
power outage, or if you've turned off or unplugged your broadband modem. If your remote
view stops working, check to see if your external IP address has changed
A Few Words About Remote-View Technology
Streaming video is only as good as the equipment and connections that enable it. There
are many variables that affect how smooth the video stream is that you actually see re-
motely. These variables include the speed, current load, and bandwidth of the internet
connections of both the web server (your computer) and the remote view computer or
smart phone, your ISP's limitations on bandwidth, the speed and current load on your
cellular network (2G, 3G, 4G, etc). Video loss and freezing video are typically due to an
insufficient internet connection. If video loss or freezing occurs this will not affect
WUSB recording.
