Before you begin
*Setup should be done in the same room as the wireless router in your home. * Camera and PC must share the same network. Verify the setup PC is on the SAME network as the wireless router in your home.
1) Plug your camera into power
2) Attach the wireless antenna to your camera (If Applicable)
3) Plug your camera directly into your router with wired Ethernet wire
4) Wait 2-3 minutes for camera to boot
-You will see the camera run through a full range of pan and tilt motion.
-When boot up completes, your camera's Ethernet port will flash yellow and green lights indicating the camera is connected to your router.
If you do not see the flickering lights - DO NOT CONTINUE
